Howdy guys,

I'm a new member from Perth, stopping in to introduce myself.
I'm the proud owner of a 2005 XC Barina 3 door 1.4. Already started modding it...

http://members.iinet.net.au/~cyclonic/barina2.jpg

I've removed the Barina badge at the rear, given it 16 inch wheels and tyres, Aura 4200k bulbs, K&N panel filter and de-restricted airbox (reset the ECU to suit).

To come are removing the side strips, colour coding the remaining plastic trim and changing the speakers, changing the grill, changing the exhaust, and a 1-2 inch lowering.

Nice to meet you all!

Hey bro!

Great to find more Perth people on here. I'm in the southern suburbs down near Jandakot. I found this site from a link to an exhaust store...weird but worked!

My wife has a 2005 Swift so I gotta get my car better than hers... :) Especially before she gets wheels and tint on it!

Thanks Pauly!
Just removed those pesky side strips last night. It'll need a little bit of a cut and poslish, but otherwise it looks heaps better.

Hi guys,

Thanks heaps, i'll be taking it slow and trying not to upset the boss. I have to compete with her new Swift!

I'll post up a pic in the next few days with the side strips gone.

Thanks! They're ROH Strada wheels. 16 x 7.0, running 45 series Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres. Great for wet weather and a really predictable tyre. Cheap too.
