The new baby comes tomorrow. Went in today and caught Teddy perving over one of the admin girls so I rescued her and dragged him out to see a proper car. :p She's pretty (no, the car, not the admin girl!), first time I've seen her in the flesh, was a lovely sunny afternoon for a test drive too. She's not staying pretty though - she's due a makeover and she gonna look NASTY when it's finished lol!!
We're gonna be restricted on time tomorrow what with Ted needing to get his ride prepped for HIN in the afternoon and the car not being available until lunchtime, but I'm gonna try and get as many photos as possible of the last of the old car being stripped back to stock, the new one arriving stock, and then the magic that we know as 'ET' taking the beauty and making it into the beast.. [jam Depending on availability, what doesn't get done tomorrow may get done on Saturday, any crew are welcome to come and lend a hand or take a photo if so. ;)
Watch this space!!
(Oh yeah, and get the camera charged up Ted, you gonna be David Bailey tomorrow unless Nick's got a day off and wants to show you how to do it. :p)
ooo sounds like a good plan [jam. Good luck with it :cool:. Cant wait for the nasty pics ;)

werd. Washing / cleaning / polishing tomorrow. Not sure if it's worth throwing a coat of wax on tomorrow, or waiting until Saturday. See how I feel I guess.
will post up pics of my whip in all it's HIN glory tomorrow for this site only ;) All clean and decal'd up
Sounds like its going to be some mad fun... ET make over, theres got to be a TV show somewhere there??

Tom.... hmm its going to be a busy one.
Wash the car,
Clay the Car,
Apply Cleaner, Apply Polish, and then Wax.
I will leave the leather etc for Sat Morning, the above should take most of the day.
Nick meet you at speedway in the afternoon, we can take a corner, and work there. Just incase it rains etc.

Did my leather today. My nappa is currently marinated with Gliptone.... :D Still a bit damp the last time I checked peeping through my tints, can't open the door or else the flavour would all escape :p
I'll see you at Speedway later part of the afternoon. Need to get some Terry towel from R-Tec before the car wash.
Sorry for hijacking your tread Chaos but a new one with full frontal views of your new girl is awaited ;)
Going to Slough at lunchtime for one more mod....then back home for a wash/wax :D
Then just a leather wipe down on Sat and wheel wax application [banana
Digs, tomorrows a sunny day....hope I don't get tempted to drive my car after its gleaming :rolleyes:

Hehe no worries Nick, was desperately trying to get mine sorted before tomorrow cos I knew this weekend was gonna be a bad one, always works out this way though eh. :) Who knows, if it doesn't work out there may be a postponement to next Saturday anyways, I've got a feeling that the CAI is gonna be the first thing that goes on and we all know there's always time for those to get fitted lol. :D Will see how we go, and thanks as always to El Tedster who's never too busy for his boys even on a weekend like this one. ;)

Dude I was just leaving the parts dept when I saw you lol I was perving with the parts guy not the service gal LMAO
Yeah come tomorrow as early as you can mate, I need to sort out my SOHO stuff in the morning as usual but I'll try waking up 1 hour earlier than usual tomorrow.
Got some new game demos from Mitsu today so gotta go play them now [jam
Stuff all ready for you bro, we can get things done in a day, some parts need to be ordered in but we'll chat about them tomorrow.
Chaos
21-04-2005, 10:53 PM
An hour earlier? You gonna wake up at 11 then? :p And perving with the parts guy isn't something I'd admit to on a public forum bro, no way you can be THAT desperate lol. :D
I can get round early as you like bruv but the new car not gonna be ready til lunchtime. Could always hassle him around 11ish I guess and see if I can squeeze it out. Will buzz you when I'm 15 away from ya. HIN comes first though - we can mod the crap outta mine on Sunday or next weekend if it comes to it, you gotta get your girl all shiny and bright for the big event. Bet you gonna drive it back home afterwards covered in plastic bags too haha!

LOL I may not need to now! Picked her up at 2pm yesterday, by 4pm there was 5 of us down at Speedway and by 4:30 the modding had started. We didn't get as much done as we'd hoped, but Ted got plenty of photos and we're gonna do the rest on Sunday. Hopefully Sunday night we'll have a start-to-finish photo spread. :cool:
She sits a bit lower than I thought, which had a few of us pondering that dropping it may not be necessary. Then, once we'd finally got on one of the secret weapons Teddy has been storing for a couple months, it definitely looked like it was already low enough. You'll see what I mean once you see the photos. ;)
Full props to Speedway btw, first time I've been there and it's a top place to hang out and tinker. Their top guy has some serious skillz aswell - very glad I went there to do this.

OK so I've been a bit slack with the pics, had my wrist slapped by Ali and Harsha :p, so here's a taster before we put up the walkthru on how to molest a nice new shiny car a la ET-style.. ;)
http://www.scions.org.uk/pigsticker/pics/car/m3rearqtr.jpg
ET stickers was the first mod, what with it being the most important and all. :D You can see a rather obvious clue in the sig as to the main secret weapon we had lined up for her... :cool:
Going round Teddy's tonight and feeding him caffeine on an IV drip to keep him awake while we finish off the goodies in his living room and then it'll be time to sit back and enjoy. Been a busy weekend - all the pics, as promised, to follow!
PS: I changed the sig just for you Ali ;)

Yo Dan, it's nearly 9pm. Are you still at Teddy's whoring out your car? :D Let's see some more pics.
I thought I was fast in terms of picking up car to first mod. Took me 2 days. Dan did his within 2 hours, and it involves taking the front wheel arch liners and undercowl off! Man those wishbones look shiney :D

Just got back lol. Halos are now on and CAI is bolted tight and sounding right. My two favourite mods - saved the best for last (well, last this weekend anyway :D ).
Ted has the first set of pics to go up, I've got some from tonight but the camera packed up and went to sleep right at the end - Teddy wasn't looking much better either, poor old boy haha! Will take some 'finished' photos tomorrow if it's decent weather.
Car looks real mean blacked out with the cf splitter and the halos now on - really chuffed with it. Top top thanks to Teddy for all his work and support, you really are top dog bro, such a busy weekend and you gave me so much of your time man, you're priceless. Mucho thanks also to Mits who was hanging onto the other end of the splitter with me while Kherie worked like mad to nail it to the front end, that took some serious stamina lol. And you guys (and gal!) on Friday for making me feel like a proper crew member and giving me so many ideas to spend my money on and pester Teddy with lol. So I've had the car 2 days and done the following:
CCFLs
CAI
Silver indi bulbs
6500k main beam bulbs
6500k fog bulbs
CF front splitter
Blue xenon interior bulbs
SSDD ACS-type strut
Black grilles
ET and SSDD stickers
Double figures in one weekend, that HAS to be some sort of record hehe - I may struggle to keep going at that rate!! :p Pics coming soon, really, I promise. :D
Hey Dan your car looks good and I still can't believe you drove straight to Speedway after picking your car up :eek: .....I would've been to busy cruising to mod.
Still a true modder at heart I think :D

Dude, business comes first! [read You can always mail them to me if not and I'll do them bro, but either way don't sweat it. I've got the second day's efforts ready but there's not many of them (and they're not as good as the first day's :o ) so I'll hang fire cos this will look better going start-to-finish.
