dont have a TF, but like the F, i would say the man being behind the wheel mans it up abit .

i think the F looks slightly more fem than the TF, so for me im going to black my wheels, either standards or buy new ones, get a front splitter and think thats about it :lol: unless i stuck a body kit on it, dont think theres anything else i could do.

 

Sell it and buy a Westfield !! :clap::beer:

 

What's wrong with a Caterham?

 

ditto.............

although need new summer pics as made some changes...grey a pillar surrounds and visors with chrome roof catches

 

dont you think the reds a bit girlie

 

a nice sound system, lowering springs, induction kit/exhaust, and i still get called a hair dresser lol

 

one of the lads at work has given me the nickname wendy because of my car :lol:

 

I image he drive some kind of really manly corsa, or his mums fiesta though. That is usually the case.

 

haha! they arent that hairdressery though!
i do like the black lexus lights

 

They are man enough!! Try driving one in the snow

 

I think mine is more manly that normal, but I may just be biased

Nice alloys mate, they just fit straight on? Wat kind of alloys can you get for these? i.e what sizes do they need for a straight awap, im picking my TF up on saturday! =]

Also, anyone know where i can get a cheap pair of the black lexus lights? They're like £75 cheapest on ebay..

 

Hi Andy, what colour, engine, year is the TF you are having? Got any pictures? :bgrin2:

 

No pictures yet mate, picking it up on saturday.

Its a 54 X-power grey, 115, 16k on the clock, lovely.

The only mods i want to do really is new alloys, paint the calipers, and some black rear lights, but im on a tight budget, so im after some black lights and alloys cheap,

Cheapest i have seen the lights is £75 on ebay, anyone know where i can get some cheaper? Seccy Hand wouldnt be an issue, as long as in good nick?

And the alloys, what kind of alloys do i need to get? Looking at the MGF up there, they are the kind of alloys i like, chunky with thick spokes, but again after some on the cheap, any ideas?

Sounds a nice low milage one. :broon:

 

you need to clear some space in your in box andy mate

 

............or become a supporter, you get lots of inbox space, your name in the bestest colour and lots of other benifits :bgrin:

 

Ash83 is your man, if you want to know how to make one look really masculine!!

 

Can't post yet cos I havent fitted mine, but I think adding roll hoops 'mans' the TF up a little

MMMMMMMMMMMM i want hoops does this mean I have to have a sex change................

 

what are "hoops"?

 

You can see a few pics of different types here LINK

 

cheers mate, Would you need a windstop aswell as this, and would it work with them both?

 

Thanks mate.

another quick question, What are the glass wind stops like?? Are they any good, or is the mesh better?

You can get hoops and wind stops separately or combined.
I would think there is no real difference in the effectivenous of mesh or glass. It's probably down to personal taste as much as anything else. Either way, they are a godsend if you don't want to spoil your hair :lol:
(personally, I don't have these problems!). With a wind stop fitted, you have the choice. Hot, sunny day when you want the wind cooling you and just fancy swathes of air, then leave it down. On a cooler day the wind stop up helps keep the cabin warmer (and as mentioned above, helps prevent spoiling Auntie Doris's nice new blue rinse curls...or if you are more lucky, the gorgeous girlfriend's hair )

The hoops are a permanent fixture, so it's just the windstop that can move up and down.

I opted for the Mike Satur combined hoops and windstop (yet to be fitted).
The type is the Boxer Mk3 on this page:
http://www.mikesatur.com/acatalog/Rollhoops_Windbreak.html
(as posted earlier)
MGF Centre also do some nice hoops/windstops, but I found the Mk 3 boxers the best overall value

http://www.mgfcentre.com/hoops.htm

I found both Mike Satur and MGF Centre extremely helpful and would recommend both

 

1st HI AND WELCOME
2nd Jesters car is very nice as im sure Broons is
3rd if your looking for wheels like RD's cheep join the que
4th Tracy you would make a worse man as i would a woman , 6 foot 4 size 14 shoes (thats me not tracy by the way)
5ththe cheepist way to get dark back lights would be to darken the ones on the car halfords do a liquid you paint on
hope this helps Sash

 

if you want some nice wheels, then check out a sort of a greeny flip paint look MGF with twin centre exhaust, a body kit and lexus lights, i forgot the members name and he posted in one of my threads few weeks back :lol:

he has some nice deep dish style wheels, looks to be 16" rears and 15" fronts or 17/16 :dunno:


infact heres the thread http://forums.mg-rover.org/showthread.php?t=215371&page=3 which wasnt mine anyways lol, unless it takes you direct, go straight to page 3 :broon:

 

Thanks mate.

another quick question, What are the glass wind stops like?? Are they any good, or is the mesh better?

 

better than nothing and they look good, I have the combined MS hoops and glass break it works but general opinion is that mesh works best

 

Here's a rather amusing wind stop test wigs and all. LINK

 

I remember that, it was a fun day and that's for sure :lol:

 

That is hilarious....I so want one of those wigs :lol:

 

we need to do a blue wig run.... :happy:

 

ok cheers guys.

might sound silly, but:
Does it have to be TF of F Hoops and/or windstop, or will other cars hoops fit?
if so which?

cheers,
andy

 

How about painting it pink? lol

That belongs to Pink16v who is registered on here.
What you think of the kit?
I think it goes well with the xpower front splitter, but wheels could do with sticking out a bit more.
Seem a bit too tucked in..

 

is it "boy" ing up or "Man" ing up ? either way I just drape half naked ladies all over mine with rocket launchers attached to the bonnet and a set of curling tongs in the boot? wooops?

 

haha i hope so mate.

Windstop, new rear lights and alloys are on my list already, i dont even have the car yet!

 

just leave random tools and stuff on the passenger seat. maybe a tin of WD40.

 

:rofl: What about adding a jazz mag and a fixtures list for the footy :lol:
