Re: DlightSwitch's Blue T-Jet

Just seen this thread, the Eibach's look amazing, where did you get them from? Could you like me, did you get the Coilovers or just the springs!?

Lovely car btw

Thanks I bought them off another forum member who bought them brand new but then decided he wanted coilovers instead, so they were brand new when I got them but cheaper.
They're available from quite a few places though:

Just shop around

Will these do you?

Update time

Fitted my custom speedo surround with the boost gauge integrated in. I love it. It's not perfect but since it was my first time ever working with fibreglass/body filler I'm pleased with how it came out.
It's now painted in New Orleans Blue, exact same colour as the car, so it matches

As you can see in that picture I decided to spray the dash strips as well

How do you get those dash strips out? thinking of carbon wrapping mine

i have a sporting 1.4 its this exact colour weirdly and i cant understand why it has the alloys seats and 6 speed box of the t-jets cant find another like it i use miguiars soap then wax amazing stuff so little is needed and it shine no matter what light it is in how were your lights tinted wnating to do this

Open the door and lift up the end with your finger, then follow it along popping it out, simple If it's stiffer than mine was though use a flat bladed screw driver wrapped in a cloth so not to scratch the dash

Sounds like you have a 1.4 16v Sporting. Same trim as mine but just a different engine/gearbox. The T-Jet is 5 speed.

There are plenty like yours though

I tinted my lights with gunsmoke tint Lamin-X film from www.lamin-x.co.uk

Where did you get your paint mixed?. And was it into a aerosol?

Found a seller on ebay who mixes alfa/fiat paints Yes it was an aerosol.

I used miguiars soap then wax, amazing stuff. So little is needed and it shines no matter what light it is. Also how were your lights tinted? I would like to do it aswell

Punctuation is a wonderfull thing

Punctuation is a wonderfull thing

I get your point but you could have at least used a full stop in your sentence just to set a good example

You also missed said full stop in your smart-arse reply.

Fair point but I wasn't moaning about punctuation so I can get away with it. Did take me a while to read his post initially though..

That was a fail .

That's the one I bought, just search for your paint code in the sellers other items. Alternatively there is paints4u online that are very reputable paint mixers.

Thanks man

I'm quite tempted to test spray my spare grill the same colour as my car and see how it looks lol

Bit of experimenting never hurt!
