Yeah, the Ultras were lighter and cheaper than the BBS options I was looking at. It made the choice easy for me.
Love the Superturismos too. Do it!

ah yes Ultraleggera's, when I can get my cash together I'll be picking up a 16x7 set for the 206. Cheaper rubber on the 16's too!
hmmm, this may not be so good. The alloy used in the SS is nice and looks awesome, but when the shifter arm is tightened around the linkage cable it does tend to embed the thread shape into the walls of the alloy. This means it is damn hard to get off (ask the guy you got it fromo if it was hard to pull off the cables, not off the selector shaft) and it may also mean that it will not only be hard to put on, but also quite hard to adjust.
An easy test is to just look down the "barrel" of each shifter piece and see if it is scored inside.
I had my one originally on my TDI for about 25K kms, and then moved it to my Bora.
ordered a vchecker pro from ECS today so I can work out whats going on with my OBD port and C2 ecu.
Shipped via usps this time, lol
Lonewolf, how much did that set you back including postage?
Went in my first Motorkhana yesturday with the Bora. Had heaps of fun. I'll post a video in my thread when I upload it.
$133US inc postage
comes up at $143 if i enter it into the cart.
so the pro can read live data, does it actually record it anywhere? or you have to watch it while you're driving?
Prepped, sanded, primed, painted and cleared my wing mirrors.
Got them as standard Bora-issue silver, rubbed them back with 800grit wetsand paper, wax&grease remover, 3 coats primer, 800 paper, wax&grease remover, 4 coats LC9Z Black Magic Pearl, then cleared after a 25minute cure in the sun. 5 coats clear.
I didn't take photos during, sorry, was too focussed on the work. Not a bad result in the end, i had one paint run and one clear run. I am not sure about fixing the paint run, but the clear run was on my 2nd last coat and it seems i can run it back with 1200 wetsand and re-clear.
I will get a sunlit photo tomorrow. Pity the wing mirrors now look better than the car :)
Major ups to Goodfella for supply of wing mirrors.
Happy days! After having no interior accent lights for months and checking every single fuse several times and having no luck, the accent lights now work as of tonight! :) :) :) I noticed yesterday that my cigarette lighter wasnt all the way in, pushed it down all the way and suddenly they work again. I can now read my climatronic at nite :D
