Hey all,

Right i have a standard 1.7 Puma brought it quite a while ago but havent done alot to it yet but got a lot planned. When i brought my car it already had a MS Design rear spoiler on it (with brake light) and a different back box (will be full system soon). I have put a set of kenwoods in the doors which i ran a seperate wire through the doors to main car so i could run them off an amp and in the boot i have a 12" Sony sub still not sure on what to do for a boot install yet as i have loads different things i can use from my old fiesta so see what i can do. The only enigne mod is an induction kit with a DIY heat sheat and forced air feed. Also fitted is a Kevlar sports clutch and Goodrich brake hoses. Got a quite a few plans for the car so i will keep you all posted.

Right pics of the progress

Car up and ready to begin
Posted Image
First of all had to remove the front bumper
Posted Image
Took off the passenger wing which was a bit fiddly as three of the nuts were hidden on under the splash tray and two in the iner wing covered in loads of gunk so had to remove this first
Posted Image
then attached the new wing
Posted Image
My mate Jack turned up to "help" and with his master skills of sitting and rolling fags i managed to get the bumper fitted :S
Posted Image
you can see the difference of width of the new bumper with the old wing
Posted Image
Then started to remove the passenger wing had to remove the washer bottle for this as it was cover a couple of the nuts holding the wing on
Posted Image
New wing fitted headlights fitted and all sorted
Posted Image
Unfortunately whilst i was doing this i noticed that my tyres were pretty much wrecked so i have just got sum multi spokes and tyres should be picking them up saturday

Do your front wheels look lost in the arches or have you spaced them ?
