Jamesshack MX3 project



  • @be9c4cf549=nightstalker:

    Another Red one! Looks nice mate, the wheels look good, AEZ's?

    There is one thing that spoils it though…................... :? Auto :P

    nothing wrong with autos my 1.6 auto is brilliant for day to day driving dont need to bo hill start and easier stuck in traffic too but no good for racing but thats what the v6 is for lol

    realy good clean mx you got there.



  • auto is good! you can eat and talk on your mobile and all sorts without the worry of changing gear !.
    Clean and tidy example. :D

    I'm sure you wouldn't condone using a mobile phone and driving at the same time would you Garfy surely you mean a hands free device..



  • i had those wheels on my nissan 100nx.
    looks clean . very nice.



  • Never use a mobile while driving

    but with an automatic it is easier to watch TV on the motorway



  • update on project…

    after much advice from the great and the good I got all the right stuff

    after colouring this red the response was not great so went for chrome?

    and back to clown red for the door handle surrounds



  • Liking the handle surrounds (I did my dash bezel in carbon wrap the other day and it was a big BIG disappointment! So am gonna redo it in gunmetal grey instead).

    Thinking exactly the same thing.



  • i did think about the wrap and decided it would be to fiddly to do, next stop. my intake.



  • picked these up off flea bay for £4o! nice

    any else noticed that there seems to be no difference between laser blue and standard side light bulbs from halfords?

    yellow calipers with a new pin kit



  • looking good mate keep up the good work



  • alloys done, how to done, any good?



  • they look realy good nice work keep up the good work



  • added yellow rim tape and currently respraying wiper arms



  • Hmm, I think you should have gone for red tape to follow the colour of the car. I need to do my wipers but they are a pain in the arse to get off.



  • calipers are yellow



  • and i looked around and everyones got red tape :? , thought it would be different, wipers are pretty easy there just a bolt under the rubber cap, remove the nut lift the arm like your replacing the blade give it a wiggle and hey presto there it is. the back one there are two large nuts undo the top one and its free :D .

    See your point there really with the yellow.

    I'll have to give another go at getting the wipers off on Monday, they've been doing my head in for a while now (as well as the front bumper and passenger wing and the height).





  • rim tapes gone, was starting to grate on me, got this wing from the most excellent lori, I think it looks okay black but pondering colour matching?


    if it stays black i am gonna need a bonnet…............. anybody got one?
