Title: Back on the road!
Post by: Nextgen on 17 January 2008, 19:01:35
Blimey. Bashed it in october last year, now its insured and going to be taxed again tomorrow!

MV6 Estate rises again, now called Fawkes or some other inapropriate "from the ashes" type name.

Suggest a name.. go on then :-)

Took me 3 months to work out the HIDs, source the right lamp shells, and bodge the two together. Sorry, re-engineer....

Will now be back to its factory spec!:
Omega MV6 Estate 1998, self levelling rear suspension,
Irmscher Back Box,
Irmscher Springs all round,
Irmscher Side Sills,
Irmscher Rub Strips,
Irmscher Back Spoiler,
Irmscher Back Bumper,
Irmscher Side Repeaters,
Irmscher Front air dam - yes, the one you really can't get anymore ;-)
HID's (yes, real ones),
Full carbon fibre effect interior (except steering wheel), Black Leather
Sound System + 6CD Changer,
Carin Factory fit Nav system (okay, 1998 maps!!!)
MV6 Alloys (Anthracite) shod with F1's all around,
Cruise Control (okay, that was added)
God I love that car...

In reserve: M-Tec Chip and modified air box!

;-) It took long enough!
I'll do some pre-tidyup /post tidyup photos...
Need to do rear wheel arches, and rear door corners... and a front bumper tidyup (paint chips).

Anyone know anywhere that would do a quick sprayover?;-)

Cheers Everyone,
Edwin

What exactly do you want spraying? Might be able to help.
