Post by: B.Martin on July 25, 2011, 08:03:39 AM
Is it worth making one of these and putting it as a sticky, often i\'m sure a few of us have got parts but don\'t always remember to look on the wanted thread? Just an idea....

Anyway, seen as you\'ve read the thread now i need...

That\'s the one, (see the Laceys post) do you have fixings as well? You\'ll be a life saver!

Ok I have an EGI that I am breaking (whenever I actually get time).  Definately have some spare seats.  Also should have flash to pass lights but will have to check condition.
 
Thanks

I do indeed have one and one broken one (broken one is on the good car and will just be bonded back together).  Will double check spare one tonight and let you know.
 
Im also looking for anything cheap that could potentially improve performance of my car for the £999 PPC challenge.
 
Specifically rear strut brace at the moment as I think I will be forced to focus on handling.
 
Thanks

After Liam has staked a claim on one, do you happen to have a second un-broken one?

wet and dry sandpaper and a good polish with cutting compound did the trick with mine.  food for thought
Title: FC3S wanted thread?
Post by: MrHanky on July 26, 2011, 07:03:10 PM
Ok, I have the spoiler off.  Only problem is one of the mounting screws has corroded off (see 2nd picture).

Just had a look at the flash to pass lens and drivers side looks ok but passenger looks a bit of a mess.  Which do you need?
Guess I will also need to take bumper off for this. Let me know anyway.

Thanks

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that\'s not the spoiler Liam and I were talking about.

We meant this one.

Arrrr, never knew there was a difference. Hay ho at least I can put this one on my other car :)
Title: FC3S wanted thread?
Post by: Lacey on July 26, 2011, 07:43:14 PM
Far as I know the earlier Series 4 EGI\'s came with the thin \'lip\' style spoiler, the later ones (if they came with one at all) came with the T-II spoiler which is what you\'ve got there :)

Got two of those myself, one with broken struts and one direct replacement for it, though I;m exploring alternative options as always :D
Title: FC3S wanted thread?
Post by: B.Martin on July 26, 2011, 07:57:17 PM
I\'m going to pass on the FTP lenses now, taken them off and decided I prefer it without...

Do want either a TII or s13 splitter though, but the TII splitters are like gold dust :Giggle
Title: FC3S wanted thread?
Post by: Lacey on July 26, 2011, 07:59:57 PM
Haha, good luck with the splitter! You\'re better off looking for a direct fit aftermarket one, seriously....
Title: FC3S wanted thread?
Post by: B.Martin on July 26, 2011, 08:10:24 PM
I know, I like the S13 one though. Maybe I\'ll look for one of them, getting it out here is the fun part.
Title: FC3S wanted thread?
Post by: Lacey on July 26, 2011, 08:12:00 PM
Can you not source one from an S13 in Cyprus?
Title: FC3S wanted thread?
Post by: B.Martin on July 26, 2011, 08:19:39 PM
Perhaps. Don\'t know where to check though, we\'ll see. Everything is Cyprus is MASSIVELY overpriced though.

Hey guys, anyone got an alternator for a S5 TII that works?!  I think this thread is a magic idea...

Cheers L18M, I also found that one too but I bought another alternator off ebay and it wasn\'t even close to being the same. Think I\'ll give it a go though, looks identical! As for brushes, it\'s my rectifier that has gone so is completely capoot I\'m told!

I\'m tempted by a front splitter, but I doubt it would survive over the speed humps round here, which cannot be avoided

a Racing Beat front strut brace

wind deflectors

a modified bonnet with extra scoop to feed cold air directly into the...

air filter box lid with a lot of the top cut out

and a ducktail esque rear spoiler

ohh, and a new egi engine, preferably street ported so i can slip in straight in when mine goes pop

and money, lots and lots of money lol

such as this...

but personally I dont think that looks right, needs to be moulded into the bodywork some more, maybe coming round the sides or something

B.Martin bad news that light lamp clips are broken on it due to rust. I might have another floating around but could be buried with all the other FC stuff. Just been busy lately so will have a route for it when I get a chance.

No bother dude, just let me know if you find one. Thanks for looking mate :)
