Thanks man... well since I want to drift with it - its not really important BUT I am talking to somebody from http://www.Linea-Recta.nu for a custom car-wrap.

I hope I will hear more about it soon.

Long story short... 2 MOMO seats mounted/installed with the OEM seat rails grinded to DEATH but OH YES it works like a charm!
All I need to do now is make it a bit more clean lookin.

look nice... still cannot accept the big wing

I think a full wrap will cost more than painting it .

Maybe sand / paint the car yourself in a homemade paintbooth ?

Wrap is crap if you ask me. DIY painting takes a lot of effort (speaking from extended experience), but if you do most of the prep, you can get the car painted for half the cost of a wrap.

Getting a half decent paintjob in the netherlands is realistically possible around the 500€ mark. A wrap will cost about 900 for a small car (remember this price from an acquaintance that had his race mx5 wrapped). But you need to consider the way even small damages will look on a wrapped car. It will start to peel, showing the original color underneath.
Let alone the rust preventative properties of a paintjob vs a plastic wrapped enclosure.

And last but not least: wraps are to inviting for gay dragons and what have you not (the things people will put on their cars)...


PS: Get rid of the wing already, here's a list of things it's good for:
-Making you look like an clueless boy racer
-Cutting your top speed down by 10-20%
-Decreasing your fuel efficiency.
-95% sure it is not mounted halfway decent, so it probably wont do a hell of a lot for downforce either.

Ja dat wil ik nog wel een keertje uitzoeken waar ik dat kan kopen etc.
Maar t probleem is dat ik zo afhankelijk ben van anderen - ik kan amper iets zelf...

@raceminded... waar komt wat vandaan?

Vandaag geprobeerd de RCA's te fitten... lukt me voor geen meter... heb meerdere allergie-aanvallen gehad en ben er helemaal klaar mee.
De steering-lock-kit gaat misschien verkocht worden aangezien ik dat NOOIT eronder zal krijgen kwam ik vandaag achter...
En tja de RCA's misschien ook.
Had niet eens de ruimte om t weer normaal terug te zetten. Ik snap er niks van.
