Wow, great looking micra "mik". You have obviously put a lot of work into it. I particularly like your front bumper and spoiler.... very sporting but not 'over the top'.

allright, she's running! this or next week, she'll hit the streets again, after a year off the road. i'm welding my own custom turbo manifold, so maybe (and hopefully) this year the sleeping beauty will join the darkside.

Nice wheel man
Have the same on my car, but mine don't have the extra 4 holes in the centre. |

Allright! Car's on the road now! It passed the inspections, and i can drive her legally on the road now. Will pick up my license plates, in two days.
*does happy dance* I didn't use any wheelspacers yet. The rims are 7x15 inches. It's dropped with eibach springs. Next thing will be custom exhaust pipes, strutbrace and the small turbo :) |

I love it mate!
Are you planning to colorcode the blue parts of the interior orange aswell some time too.!? Would be perfect.. And maybe get the original seats retrimed in white and orange vinyl or leather or something like that.. Cheers Are |

hey mate
what actually happened to the car did you crash it?? |
mik » CMF Member Stuttgart Germany Member since: Posts: |
Re: my sleeping beauty |
Thu 05 Feb 2009 01:08:02 AM |
Yeah, i crashed it. Its about two years ago, but still i didn't throw her away.. so i wanted to rebuild her again.
Last Monday i bought a black super S 1.3, which i will swap the pieces like bodykits, interior and all that stuff, from my old micra to that black one. As i will strip the black one complety down, i will redo a couple of things. One thing isn't for shure, the color. I really love that orange, but maybe i'll go for something else, so lets see :) As soon as i start the new project i'll keep you guys updated. have fun and drive save in piece and memory to all our beloved micras mik |
