hi Maca hows things , yer did them with smooth hammerite , had a look at the under tray tonight and it needsa bit of work to fit so will do it when I have more time also will need a big scoop unless I cut air diverter down a bit  

Excellent I think ill be getting some of that to give my AP's a refurbishment and the brembo back callipers I've got fitted  

Ive got a big bonnet scoop here if you get stuck (the one in profile pic) £20

Mate were you get the mini vents from

I got them off Maca too think he got them on his car when he got it

Looks alright that Oggy! just needs a bit of mesh inside the bonnet scoop  

I bought them mini scoops off scoobynet but I had a carbon wrapped bonnet at the time and you could see the folds in the wrap when they were fitted so I decided not to fit them, then I sold the bonnet   

Cars coming along very nicely Oggy  

Cheers Maca  

Why did I sell that car lol

Lol yer Mousey but I'm glad u did ,, how's yours coming along

Thats coming along nicely oggy. Certainly one of the things thats kept me interested in these cars is that you can play with them. I'd never had a car longer than 18 months before I got the Blob and I kept that for nearly 8 years coz I was always changing something and it held my interest. Dying to do a few things on the Hatch but the Mrs is watching me like a hawk at the moment.

Got to say I'm not sure about a massive scoop on a Classic, I think it spoils the subtle lines and makes it look a bit cartoonish, but thats just my opinion and I totally respect yours if you like it that way  

Thanks Keith , I know what you mean about these cars totally addictive , I also know what you mean about the scoop I'm still not convinced lol but it will stay on till I get bored with it , would really like a carbon one to match the little scoops , carnt wait to see the comments about my wheels when I finally get round to doing them lol neon yellow haha

Why don't you get your old one or the big one dipped in carbon off locky?

Exactly what I was going to say maca, when you see the quality of Lockys work up close you'll be amazed. Would be a great solution and you can keep the low level look. Something about a newage means you can get away with a big whales gob stuck on the bonnet but the Classics are just a bit more streamlined to me.
