That would look really good, especially with a decent lift kit

davcud · Dec 28, 2016

would be a useful measuring stick for parking , as it will be wider than the car

how about an airlift kit

now where talking

http://extreme-engineeringuk.com/

Full electronic servo assisted brakes
External alternator with dual battery charging
Fan assisted heat removal from rear engine bay
Adjustable hydraulic clutch
Reverse gear
Extended accelerator pedal movement to help with quick revving engine
Crush drive to take the impact load of the gear change... without this, the gearbox would be put under unnecessary stress
Front spoiler, splitter with new full under pan (underside floor) to stop uplift at the front that all Smart Cars suffer with over 70MPH... keep in mind this car is capable of 150MPH!
Full new suspension design with bump, rebound and camber control
Wide alloy wheels and tyres
Hayabusa clocks fitted
Nylon brushed engine to stop engine vibration

davcud · Dec 28, 2016

The Mrs already wants the Hayabusa engine putting in

gstuart · Dec 28, 2016

davcud · Dec 29, 2016

The Mrs love these pics any offers to do the work can be paid with tea and cake and roast dinners car is free from Feb lmao

Love the thread, as I have just picked up a smart for two 450 for the exact same thing....project make it an of broader, as been a bit bored lately since I finished my sons 300tdi, and this came along for free, so couldn't resist.

Lift kits are America only for $350, but then with bigger off road tyres, you will get a 4" lift, which for these little things is plenty, as they already have surprisingly good ground clearance. Was thinking of a thread, but as its a LR site, didn't bother....

gstuart · Dec 31, 2016

found a few more pics of the led light bars

also like the way they've mounted the switches , neatly in the light
