  9. Alfa gtv v6 project black edition

    Yeah having a go myself already got the stuff with a little spray gun lol! Finished the front seats Pics of the one done on the right and the one one not done Pleased with how the seats have come up but this is what I'm going to repair needs sticking and recolouring
  10. Alfa gtv v6 project black edition

    lol! Yep got the carpet to, I have put the head rests, rear seats and door cards in, I'm trying to source some tan door pockets too as I have them in the spider and they add that little extra touch. I have cleaned up all the leather as they were a dirty tan. The carpet needs a 1001 session before I put it in and the two front seats need recolouring before I pop them in

  16. Alfa gtv v6 project black edition

    after selling the black leather I did a deal and spent £240 on...... tan leather interior tan carpet front brembo powerflex dog legs full stainless exhaust downpipe alternator brake compensator valve he through in a few bits for free, two rear calipers gtv mats air con unit abs unit so after the shopping trip i thought i would top up my total cost so far i have spent on my project including the purchase price. total spent on upgrades £1059.65 After all back in
  17. Alfa gtv v6 project black edition

    so you could cover these in red, blue or tan to match your leather interior if you wanted but i think black looks good. I unfortunately don't have loads of money to spend on my gtv so this is a great easy cheap fix. so all you need is some glue and elastic bands and all it cost me £2.45, the materiel needs to be 100 denier......ehhh. .....so ..... so i bought some black 100 denier.....tights!! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/130934633411?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT old material off run glue around the edges and put the new material over and hold in place with elastic band around the outer edge untill the glue drys and thats it. My side door speaker covers have a little tear so i have done these also. So as mentioned earlier i have been shopping for a few bits need for a mot
  18. GTV project

    Wow looks great, what a transformation, like the gt jetfins and cup kit
  19. Alfa gtv v6 project black edition

    It's funny how the little thing bother you, something that really annoy me are the purple speaker covers, so time to sort it out the sun fade and get them back to black Sold the black leather interior for £180 so project black edition is over but i think it will look even better and still mysterious. I hope it works out well as the black leather is very nice
  20. Alfa gtv v6 project black edition

  22. Alfa gtv v6 project black edition

  23. Alfa gtv v6 project black edition

    Got a spare half hour today so finished painting the engine bay alfa romeo and v6 24v silver, got a little carried away and removed and painted any rusty bolts lol!
  24. Alfa gtv v6 project black edition

    I agree don't like the alloys at all but it's black with the cup kit without the vents, the look after and I would really like to see a pic of a black gtv with cup kit without side vents from the front. I am currently negotiating in buying a whole gtv with cup kit that's cheaper than the kit seperatly it's crazy, although don't need another gtv lol!
  25. Alfa gtv v6 project black edition

    cheers Tom, i love a bargain i have to as always on a tight budget lol doing the work certainly saves you pennys to spend on upgrades, i just had a look through your pics lovin the rear suspension looks mint painted red does anyone know this black gtv, looks like its got cup kit plus spoiler but not side vents, would love to see more pics
