 Transport Guru MP Moderator Posts: 4947     Location: Bromley, Kent | Hi, I'm just starting this thread for my mate, as he takes ages to do stuff and otherwise won't do it. aha. lol He bought a 1990 Rover Metro GTa about 3 weeks ago now and on the evening driving it I told him about someone I knew selling bits we then went a bought a new interior and alloys for it! For that reason we have no photos of it wearing it wide steelies and GTa wheel trims. We put the black MPi wheels on only to find the 185/ 60s rubbing on the rear [55s on front] and so removed them after about a week. It now has my spare silver 6 spoke wheels on whilst he has some tyres swapped over and then refurbing the black MPis. It also has Rover 100 dash mate, rear lights, Rover 25 rear view mirror [til he gets a MGF one], AX console & silver wrapped dash wood panel. Anyways, couple of days after purchase:       Rover coupe front seats with custom rear bench retrim:  More recent with my wheels on and after a wash polish etc...

Cool, thanks for telling us. We'll prob do it at some stage. lol Also, let people know. There maybe a 3rd Metro joining the above 2 soon.  lolEdited by 111Sli 10/10/2011 1:26 PM | ||

Green machine! Posts: 585 Location: Bromley, Kent | Last things we have done on the car is we removed the front bumper and put the car on axle stands since it's off the road ATM. We fitted the splitter better and it's much more flush now. Whilst the bumper was off I hamerited the front of the car and slam Panel etc... We have also fitted front red seatbelts and they were cleaned up. Came up really good. Also fitted a gas strut, it came from a Rover 800 bonnet. We used the ball point things from a metro boot. 1 we screwed into the bonnet hinge bolt and other into a bolt Coming out of the battery tray. Pics.         | ||

Green machine! Posts: 585 Location: Bromley, Kent | Hello mate, Back end is getting there, got new boot identical to the original one with all the same badges and colour  , also got rear bumper. Just waiting for the money of the insurence. They are taking years. Got a new rear end lined up but have not got the money at the moment. Rear end was pretty pushed in but luckily didn't crease the floor | ||
