Default my lupo

Owner Member Name:
Year: 1999 (Dec)
Make: VW
Model: Lupo
Color: Jazz Blue


Summary of the car: bought late 2004 started minor mods while choosing a set of rims to suit. since its my first car thought i'd keep it simple and here it is:


Pictures:











Engine Specs: 1.4s with BMC induction kit and Jetex centre exit exhaust


Suspension & Wheels: lowered 60mm all round on G MAX (not the best but they do the job) springs and dampers. BBS RM's (started life 6.5 x 15) now 7.5 inch on the front with 8's on the rear (nice and shiny)


Exterior Specs: de badged, rub strips removed.


Interior Specs: pioneer headunit, alpine spr 176A components and kenwood 5 channel amp running them.


Notable Acomplishments: I've almost got it the way i want it.


Comments: next up Lupo GTi. prob end up lookin the same just a bit quicker.

Cheers

Glen

Love the look you got going on. That color is so close to the Audi Nogaro bluem or maybe it is the same, either way I like it.
