De-Tango and Black Badges

[windym]

Day off today and it is raining, seriously raining so figured I'd sort out the side indicators as I did not like the orange and change the bonnet, boot and steering wheel badges. Still waiting for the side vent badges to arrive, then discovered the boot is 82mm not 74mm dooh so had to order another one of them. I bought a badge set with 4 wheel badges although I had them anyway the set was cheap enough so they are going in the for-sale section later.

So limited time on the Z,d today but happy with the changes.

Looks awesome I have the black badges as well

Orange indicators are the work of the devil and should be purged from all Zeds

I really like black badges but not sure if they will go with my colour. Open to people's thoughts, infact so not to steal the thread I'll start a poll on it.

Hi, they do look rather dated, going to loose all the orange bits in the next few weeks.

I have orange lens trying to keep it as original as possible anyway orange does not stand out on red.
Unlike some other colours.

I started by changing the headlights then the side repeaters. I didn't change the rear ones but I did fit LED bulbs in the rear indicators which makes a huge difference.

Hi, did you get the clear conversion kit or just new lights?

All mine are done. Fronts and sides were done on purchase, I added the rears later. I do much prefer the clear lense look. Agree with @Tracy Dee, your car being totally original I would keep it that way.

 

[Tracy Dee]

Well its as near original as it can be, it does have an updated CD player and some 90s fandango Harman kardon iPod device u can p!ug in the glove box and a weird screen on dash.
I might have it taken out at some stage looks like a sat nav stuck up on dash.
Works OK though so no rush.
Black bagdes might look OK on red though.

Is this for the lenses to go in the front lights? If so it would be @Southernboy but is not making them anymore but you could pm him he did say too.
The sides was @t-tony and the only rear ones i have seen where smoked and Andy @spurs fan inacoupe had them for sale a while back.
