Silver X10XE Slow project

[Teastick]

Was gonna put silenced section back on and just run backbox but it started raining and decided f**k it il wait till it soots up see if it quietens a bit

[johnny]

It'll get louder mate I'll get a vid of mine later

[Domwhitex]

Haha yeah i got my bullet style bakbox only thinking yeah it will give it a nice tone be qiuet in low revs and low mid to high range yet its sooted up and f**k me its loud! If i put a centre section on this it would be deafening! Sooting up has made it a good 4x louder i recon!

[Teastick]

Ahhh poo son i already get complaints and it hasnt been on a week yet

[johnny]

Well tbh mate if you think it's too loud now you'd be as well putting the middle box back in and leave the sportex back box on, it'll get rid of the tinney noise and be alot more subtle

[johnny]

Mine sounds like this except pops louder and alot more

sportex cat back

I was in the middle of making a vid when a security guy came so I bolted

Right been busy since 8am got loads done so will get cracking with pictures / videos.

So firsts first. Saddened me to do this considering i love the sound

To this

Can see it staying like this till i get bored and put the race tube back on lol

While car was on stands i went to change brake discs. Rounded one of the bolts that goes into the calliper carrier sick as f**k like. Brakes still fine though as i didnt manage to get it loose haha. So gonna need to order a new bolt and a tap and die set. Woo. The fun i have instore for me

Seems as the brake disc change failed i decided to start on the blackening of other parts in my interior

Plasti dip is awesome. Unless you put it on too thin then if you get a slight scratch it just peels

But no need to sand parts. Winning.

Heres what i got done
Grab handle and corsa c sunglasses holder


Decided to do sunroof winder and surround aswell






B pillars out



Grabhandle on


Sunglasses holder on


Rear trim took out for paint


Sunroof trim painted and on


B pillars done



Final picture of trim

Bought some vauxhall stickers for the mirrors




Also got some vaux logos for centre caps


And finally. I changed the pollen filter



Thats all for pictures. I did however fill my rear bumper so it just needs sanding smooth then painted
