serega12's Holden Barina
So it's time to introduce my 06 Holden Barina. For now I'm only uploading a couple of videos and tomorrow I will post up detailed info and pics of what I've done so far. Those of you who've read through my other thread have already seen what she looked like before, so check out the vids and let me know what you think of the changes. Comments welcome as always. Enjoy!

P.S. I've wanted to do silver/black stripe, but my only choices were black and white, so I went with those. But the white matches with UltraRacing and Versus Motorsport vinyls, so i'm fine with the way it turned out.

Pretty sweet. Looks awesome. Where did you get your led strips from? I need some of those white ones.

Local Autozone store, but I'm pretty sure you can order them online too. They're called FLEX LED 24" white (even though there are two 12" strips, not one piece. They already come with 3M tape backing. P/N is 77423B and they're made by Alpena.

I got mine at wallmart, they were like $68 or something... a little cheaper than Autozone and all those places. Around $75 after tax.
Then I got the grille's from Amazon for arond $24 and Color Shieldz smoked protective laminate... (without that the HIDs were too bright).

Re: serega12's Holden Barina
Nice - you read lots about people wanting to do Kalos swaps. Not too many Barina swaps going on.
Looks good!
PS - what Aveo is that beside yours? Next project? :)

Re: serega12's Holden Barina
Where did you get the fenders from?
-
Re: serega12's Holden Barina
looks real nice :D
i've always loved the barina lion emblem
the fog lights and led turn signals =D>
i have a similar project with 2 hella 500 driving lights and 2 hella 500 amber fogs in the works.
all new additions look great. props for all the hard work :D

Re: serega12's Holden Barina
Wow very impressive i must say.
I have a question though. How did you wire up the led turn signals in the front, so that it alternates like that?
-
Re: serega12's Holden Barina
Awesome...
Everything I think or debate, you are one step ahead.
I always put things off because I don't want to waste money on something that might look right.
Cool, at least I get to see what it looks like before I spend my money.
The car looks great. I was trying to figure how to fill that front grill opening. I have two pairs of those driving lights in my garage for the Jeep. If I sell the Jeep they would work on the car.

I like the light output of Hella 500FFs... the only difference between 500 and 500ff is the glass... FF has clear glass and they use the reflector to direct light output... I love the way they work with HIDs though... even though I ha to drill a hole in the back to fit the HID bulb in there (hot glued it around the bulb once all assembled for waterproofing)
And thank you for the comps.

Re: serega12's Holden Barina
I will have to say your car looks so damn beautiful especially by doing the Holden Barina swap which it is such a nice upgrade comparing to the Kalos. I like everything you've done with it so far and I never knew these car had awesome owners like some us here to have the courage to make it so wonderful and unique. The LEDs are amazing and gives a nice touch to it though as the same with the iluminated light (dummy corner light). I must say you have a beautiful car, and by the way what country had the Holden Barina? =D>

Re: serega12's Holden Barina
definitly always will love this car. best one ive seen besides the one in superstreet magazine. beautiful though i admire everything you did with it. i really want your side skirts and the rear bumper im loking into versus to get them sometime soon. n the headers from that guy in singapore i cant find him anywhere on ebay :( but love the car. love the lighting i cant find how to do the blacked out headlights or where to get some. i lke how u inspired our dad with the aveo. thats a good way to have an aveo is to inspire other people to get one. or did i have it the same time as yours. is he planning on doing anything with it or keep as an grown up car that saves money or gas. lol

Re: serega12's Holden Barina
Thank you for the compliments. My dad is keeping his as stock as it gets fort the mpg.
As for thee headlights, you can do the joey mod where you bake them,pull them apart, paint thee inside black, and put them together. Or you can just search the Ebay for crystal clear black aveo headlights for 142 shipped. No hassle this way. Just a bolt on.
With xiaogary, you can contact him through ebay or pm him through the forum.
And the car from super street, is that the green monster that jason has for sale on this forum?

Re: serega12's Holden Barina

Re: serega12's Holden Barina
Just ordered some silver gauges with text BARINA on them and LED upgrade, even though I already have LEDs, the ones they have pictured on their site don't look like they have any hot spots in their lighting, and they're supposed to work well with the custom gauges.
The vinyl overlays from whitegauges.net bubbled on both sets they sent me, and they blame it on "customer error" and don't want to do anything about it even though I followed their instructions to the "t", so I'm just gonna replace the gauge faces altogether and never buy anything from whitegauges.net again... and don't recommend them to anyone here either, just so you can avoid the same "customer error" I made.

Re: serega12's Holden Barina
He's car its so nice that I think inspires others to do the same but never will look as this car.

No, not yet. There were only a few people interested so far, but nobody followed through yet even with the test drive... I'm not in a hurry to sell either.
