DILLIGAF?: Project Ratty



  • Not even 10:30 yet, another day off, most people would still be dribbling cornflakes down their faces but not me.

    Stripped the final wheel down and sprayed it up and then set about fitting the wheels in the nice rain that has now stopped since I have finished fitting them!


    It has raised the car quite a bit now so more lowerness is definitely in order!

    I'm also in the process of re spraying the spoiler which was gloss black and very tatty.

    Time for a cuppa I think.



  • lookin good (in a ratty kinda way :wink: )

    Wheels look cool on the motor…



  • Cheers Hammy :)

    Took it out for a mooch earlier on to see the difference from the 15's. I was expecting it to be hideous but I was extremely surprised! :shock: The car feels 100% better on the 17's!

    Who was it who wanted to see an MX3 with mud flaps on?

    Wellllll.



  • Those wheels are nice, the colour goes well with the rest lol

    17's with brand new tyres make the handling 100% better on the MX

    I think next on the list with a spray can is turning those lights into rat lexus lights :wink:

    It's something I've been toying with for a while, doing something like Foxy has done on his :wink:



  • new rims look kushtiiii on :D
    nice and wide too 8)

    looking forward to yo rear lights :)



  • Just an idea as foxy has already done it

    maybe squares or stripes

    to be road legal you cannot cover up more than 50% for the MOT

    I was thinking stripes myself but like you say it's a risky one and I think I've got enough on my plate as it is :lol: (actually, no, the guy at the garage said apart form the sill which needs welding up, the car seems quite solid, grimey, but solid).



  • Iron cross mask job in camo?
    stick some reflectors lower down :D

    Like the idea, but maybe black so they blend with the body 8)

    Had the flaps on about an hour now and I just couldn't help but think they needed something


    Job done I say.



  • sounds like something Bill Bailey would come out with :lol:



  • That sticker rocks "i poke badgers with spoons lol cracks me up!!! :lol:



  • is it me or is this starting to look really f**king cool, i mean i liked the rat look before but im starting to love this

    :) glad you like it bud, I'm looking at it now and thinking there's not a lot more I could do to the exterior (apart from the pick up conversion), I really will be at a loss when the car's finished, I might have to start work on the house again :shock:



  • How do you rate the cars glove box? Boring? Not bothered? Dunno it's full of crap?

    It's pretty boring really, nothing of interest, just a place to hide all the crap you need to carry around in the car.

    So what it needs is some "bombing"! Not just any ordinary bombing how's about something to cheer passengers up on those long journeys?


    YEAH!!! That's right, some useful numbers for those long boring journeys!

    :lol:

    Oh and note the One dollar bill in case you get really stuck…...



  • oh dear



  • That is awesome, you will have to do the door cards now in a fresco wallpaper hahaha LOVE IT :lol: :D :lol:



  • lol great nice work



  • Thats funny dude!

    You know what i always wanted someone to do a white no frills car, you remeber no frills? was it tesco or something?



  • LOL, laquer over the paper so that it won't tear/get damaged
