Olly's pimped out K11

Gearstick Knob looks a bit Uncomfortable unless you have a cyclinder for a hand, lol.

 

[ollyc98]

It's smooth and slightly rounded on top, however I have sliced my hand on the bottom bit so I'll have to get the dremel out today

i see my lights went to good use, they look really well on your car...

wouldnt have looked as good on mine

 

[ollyc98]

Yeah, they would have been body coloured but I couldn't get any paint in that code from halfords so just went bumper coloured instead.

 

[ollyc98]

Installed fog into bumper today, looks ok but the hole needs tidying up.

 

[pjg1979]

Very Nice.

 

[ollyc98]

Put her on a diet today, removed almost 20kg of crap that included the spare wheel, jack and spare set of lights. Also removed the padding off one of the rear seats

 

[pjg1979]

Good Man, You should have weighed them individually, I was thinking of starting a Thread called "The Micra Weight Loss Program" where people can add weights of items such as Aircon cooler, pipes, K11 Rear Seat whole, etc.

 

[ollyc98]

Well I still have most of the stuff, I had a set of alloy wheels that I scrapped today, weighed 25.5KG and got me £13, the price of scrap is really low atm

 

[ollyc98]

Vinyled my headlights today, the light output is still good considering almost 1/3 of the light is covered, just wish I had a better camera

 

[joesouthgate]

where have you vinyled olly? got a daylight pic?

 

[ollyc98]

Unfortunately I left it too late for a daylight pic, I'll get one tommorow, I've basically covered the top part like this:

 

[joesouthgate]

ah rite, cool.

 

[ollyc98]

I just went and re-wired my dim dip unit to make it clearer as I don't have sidelight bulbs in lol, anyhoo here's how it looks (not very straight, will do again when I'm in a better mood)

 

[1.3GX]

looks evil

 

[ollyc98]

What a difference some spray makes, finally fitted a sunstrip:

 

[b47to]

sun strip goes down well i like it blends in well with the grey/black theme

 

[pjg1979]

Very nice Olly, looking evil.

 

[ollyc98]

If you think it looks evil now wait til next week, I've got something big and amazing planned

 

[1.3GX]

do tell?

 

[ollyc98]

No, you must wait, but think WW1 fighter planes

 

[ollyc98]

Fitted my savage stainless exhaust and put a false floor in my boot to tidy up the amp wires.

 

[joesouthgate]

Whats going on with the fog light mate?

 

[pjg1979]

I'm guessing he's waiting to get the correct colour paint to finish it off.

 

[ollyc98]

I cut a hole to flush mount it in the bumper and had 2 problems. Firstly there wasn't enough space to get it completely flat and secondly I was a bit drunk when cutting the hole and it wasn't square the first time so I've straightened and filled it, I then ran out of filler so couldn't finish.
When it eventually does get done i'll colour code the bumpers lol

 

[ollyc98]

Fibreglassed some driving lights in today, what do you all think?

 

[pjg1979]

That looks the dogs mate, very well done. Do you have a picture without the lights on?

 

[joesouthgate]

Yer they do look pretty bright! Would be interested in a pic without lights on aswell.

 

[ollyc98]

I'll get one now but I must warn you my paint job was done in the wet so needs re-doing

 

[pjg1979]

I like it.

 

[ollyc98]

I'll test them on the way home from work tonight and let you all know how they perform

 

[jim_bling]

going for the rally look olly im liking it so far

 

[pjg1979]

Olly, what you should do tonight is take a picture without the mega cruise light fuse in, then take another picture with them on.

 

[ollyc98]

Lol actually everything I've done to my car recently is purely for function, my headlights are terrible so needed a boost and the sunstip is cos I kept getting blinded by the sun through the gaps in the visors

Yeah I'll do that when I get home

 

[Scouse boy]

Mate! your car is looking awesome. I love them lights in the grill
keep up the good work

 

[ollyc98]

I never thought they would work this well, the before pic was from inside the car but cos the after pic has such a large light coverage I had to get out the car cos the windscreen wasn't big enough!
