Tom's Megane Project *Pic Heavy*

Postby thedools » Mon Oct 18, 2010 9:22 pm

Hey guys, got my 1.9 Dci 120 megane in March and have been watching the forum and asking questions, finally decided to do a post of my project. Heres some pics I have taken throughout modifying my car. Im nearly finished with it apart from a few little things, hope you guys like it so far.

Tints

Rear Lights

Wheels and -45 Lowering Springs on

Front and back bumpers swapped for original 225 bumpers

Next to do on the list is fit the 225 back box (next week?), fit some dummy headlight washers (on the way) and then maybe install some speakers.
Im going to also wrap the rear badge in carbon fibre to match the front, i may end up changing the wheels but i got them off ebay for £120 new so i couldnt complain!
Otherwise I think its basically at what i want it to be, unfortunately I have the modification bug now :idea

Thanks to everyone for answering my annoying questions about everything :)

Oh and I have to thank my girlfriend for buying me car part presents! haha

:rock

Very nice job mate, well done. :cool:

How did you go about connecting the Phase II rear lights? This is one of the first mods I wanna do.

Also how much was your window tinting? Did you do it yourself or get someone to do it?

Cheers

Hey madwedge, rear lights are quitre easy to do, basic knowledge of knowing some wiring etc.. I used 'Nige's' how to guide, its stickied on the mod page i think, check ebay for cheap lights ;) totally change the look of the rear! Window tints were £120 from a company called ARM graphics in Hull, top job.

Hey Tom, yep the rear back box is a straight swap, i think the thing to look out for is if you buy a second hand one make sure you get the tail pipe bracket too, it supports them so your exhaust isn't strained.. I think im doing something a bit un orthodox though, when I bought the rear bumper the guy offered to chop the tail pipe off at the weld, Im gonna weld it onto my back box, job done ;) I hope lol.

thanks for the comments guys!! :wink:

Looking good mate. You need that back box! I've got the headlight washer dummies on mine, just some good strong bond will do.
