Guest DC5MATT Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 (edited) Hi guys, My names matt, i joined today because i will really need your help over the next few months.. To give you an outline, my bro has adandoned his jspec? imported TT and left it parked for over a year. The car runs sound but he has lost interest for the car TBH he never has had the botheredness or commitment neeeded to keep a car right! SOOooo i'm taking the project on so iit doesn't rot to waste, i'm sure it could be a nice one! Basically i'm looking to tidy up the exterior (read "put to near standard) and clean up the interior. So we can either sell this on or use as a weekend car next summer. The car is a little Fast and Furious, not really my cuppa so ALL add ons will be up for grabs, peanuts. http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-sf2p/v134/9/92/513970684/n513970684_276360_5588.jpg This is where you can help, i ideally wanna swap the aftermarket parts for std items. Also what parts do you guys wanna give away? swap or sell dirt cheap. Help me out, i promise to visit the forum often and maybe show at a meet or 2 if i get it up to a decent standard. please be kind guys Edited June 30, 2009 by DC5MATT (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 (edited) Welcome aboard, join for the help but stay for the fun... or something... Anyway I'm sure people will jump at the chance to swap standard bits for aftermarket ones but you might need to sign up as a proper member and advertise in the proper for sale / wanted sections. Info here: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=82442 It's only a small fee and if you get all the bits you need and plenty of help it's worth it Any pics of the car you want to rescue? Edit now the pic is there: Skirts will be in demand, wheels look nice enough, bumper and wing won't be as popular but someone is bound to like them Edited June 30, 2009 by michael (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martini Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 (edited) I am sure this forum will give you all the help you need Please can I have your side-skirts? That'll help you make it look more stock. How much would you like for them? Also lose that spoiler. Apart from that, nice car Edited June 30, 2009 by martini (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DC5MATT Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 PMs replied to ALREADY! bradley - wheels will be forsale although prepare yourself for a refurb they won't be great. I didn't expect this much interest tbh. i'll go get some better pics and some clear info on the parts for you guys tonight. I know i will haveto join up to trade or ask for parts properly so don't wanna upset mods before i start. Please PM interest/info until then. thanks again lads, Matt.

RED_ROCKET Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 those side skirts if oem should be left on m8 but if you really dont like them they are worth a few quid id say in the region of £300 just so you dont get hoodwinked lol:p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
