Finally the scoob is starting to get there. Only had it for about 3 months now and so far ive done a few mods.

Quick list is:

P1 front bumper
P1 rear spoiler
P1 4 pots with TSL discs
P1 suspension
Clear reapeaters and fronts
17 OZ wheels
Scooby sport downpipe
Blitz Nur Spec R system
Blitz induction kit
Couple of other engine treats
Samco hosing
Lots of security

Missed out a couple of mods but these are the noticeable ones

I cant wait till the rear lights go, that nasty fog light and some new headlights

I think the 17's look nice, why dont you replace bonnet, grill, headlamps to 99 spec and private reg and maybe rear lights as sti

Nice looking car, i have a 95 aswell and will be changing the front as yours, i didnt think you could fit the old style fog lights in the new spec bumper

Yep the bonnet and lights need to get sorted. Im talking with someone now about that so that will be cool if it works (i dont want the normal steel bonnet from the later ones as they are to heavy and im not paying £450 for an ally one!!). I have another idea

STI lights was meant to go on to but the group buy didnt go ahead. But should be getting them soon to as well.

All in due time (and more money). lol. Didnt think i was going to spend so much in 3 months!

Money,

This has to be the best looking black classic scooby I've ever seen. The P1 plastic stuff really finish it off. Very nice wheels too. I wished I could spare the cash to completely tidy my car up.

Or just get rid of it all together!, when you get the sti lights..take the wiring from the nasty fog light and wire it up to the rhs reversing light, get some red glass paint (art store) and paint the bulb and there you go a nice neat clean look, this is what I done and it's sooo much cleaner, as below, and it passed the MOT the day after!



By the way looks good!, but reckon you're right bout 18's

Wish I'd bought a black one!

P1 tud, what lenses are these mate? I was going to change the mirrors but i love the electrical ones so im keeping them

STI rear lights are definitely on the way. Theres another way where you can put the rear fog light on and not paint the right reverse light. I like to keep both my reverse lights, greedy

Yeah Krade, morettes are worth it i think. Ive got other things to think about first like STI lights and bonnet but i think ive just ordered a different ecu and some other engine goodies. Got to stop spending! (one day)

Ive got decals to go on but havent had chance yet.

Loudness, at a rolling road it hit 118DB. It is to loud and most of the time i drive around with the bung in. Only sometimes i take it out and cause chaos

Dan, i did have the option of the other crystal lights (i think thats what you are talking about). But they only had the side repeaters and didnt have them for the front bumper indicators so it would have looked odd.

I would liked to have the crystal ones but you cant mix and match. It has to be the same all the way round

Cheers dan, keep me posted.

I know what you mean 7 foot. i had this discussion with wible and krade. i think it depends on the colour of the car and other mods at the front. Some scoobs ive seen it on and they look nasty! I have seen them on 3 black scoobs. 2 of them looked the daddies and really did look good, the other one looked crap though!

Yep sti lights soon

Show me a pic of these prodrive mirrors then mate. Let me have a look. I do love the electric mirrors! Round here i use them quite a lot (most of the time when i park up) cause when i go to work, its quite tight where i park and cars always drive so close!

Even on my last car (a golf), i had dtm cup mirrors and even those end up getting hit

Just looked at the prodrive mirrors. Cant really see them in the pics. Anyone got pics of them on their car??

They look like the DTM cup mirrors i had them on my golf (which costed me £50) but they have a carbon fibre element to it thus making it over £300!!!!
