Ty's Bumblebee

[TyDS3]

Hey guys & girls, I purchased the 1.6 Vti Dstyle Plus DS3 in yellow and black on the 24th February 2014.
It had 18k miles on the clock and is a 62 plate.

This is the first picture I took of her at work...


This is her back side, love the lights! Unfortunately, they're not the LED lights but they will be eventually.


So the first modification consisted of changing the gastly H7's for some whiter ones...

Best one in the car park

First rule of parking a DS3 (or any car for that matter) - If you can only park on the end of a row in a car park then keep it right up to the 'outside line' = minimising the risk of door ding !

[TyDS3]

Ah thank you for the advice. I shall park right at the end of the space to minimise risk of being hit lol

[lfcrule1972]

Do that and park away from everyone else if possible, I try that a lot but then some muppet will still park right next door

[MNJG]

What are your next plans for the bumble bee ??

I also try this, but I work in a hospital so the car park is always heaving by 9:30am! I've started parking next to my boss's brand new car, cos he'll be just as careful as I will!

Anyway, the car looks great, Ty!

Well I've upgraded all the bulbs to start with, getting a custom made gloss black 'ds3club.co.uk" decal with the chevrons as apparently, we can't buy black.
I'm not focusing on power at all because I have the civic for that... So I shall be lowering her on springs for now within the next few months, followed by wider/better wheels, colour code the lips and side skirts, painting all chrome gloss black to match the roof, darker rear tints, tinted lights all round, private number plate, custom exhaust just to give it a little bit of sound, cupra lip, debadge the rear, upgrade the whole sound system including dynomatting the panels and upgrading all the speakers and head unit etc. Just aesthetic mods really :-)

Sounds like quite the plan. Looking forward to seeing your results.

[Gazski66]

Not much then lol, any idea what speakers you are going for Ty as i was thinking the same but know nothing about speakers

[TyDS3]

Na not a lot really... I'm not too clued up on audio either to be honest. My mate will help me with that.

You think that's a long list? This is the Civics mods so far:
Rota p1s in Deep Pearl Bronze
Lowered 30mm on Eibach springs
Fast road set up
Wind deflectors
Custom made single exit cat back 2.5 inch
Carbon fibre vented bonnet
Tinted windows on rear
Mugen spoiler with carbon centre blade
Tinted lights all round
HID's
Upgraded lights all round
Footwell lights
Mugen gear knob
Twin 10 inch subs and amp
Hks induction kit
Mugen reservoir socks

Think that's it so far lol. Spent about 5k in total

[TyDS3]

Oh and a custom bluetooth interface :-)

I think I may have decided on the wheels too! Will take some saving unless I see something different but opinions? http://www.rimstyle.com/alloywheels/...4yNWwyMjEuMjU=
