sounds seriously mental. are you cheating though in that tunnel ;)

you cant 'fail' for it being too low unless its unsafe. however you will get refused at alot of places as they cant get it on the ramps to get it tested.

some tosser hit my wing mirror and the glass came out and was just held on with the heating element wires. pushed the glass back in and it clipped home. but tbh cant remember in detail if there was a circlip.

highsports are fantastic in a dynamique, but on the 172 they're far too hard for everyday driving. i went with the konigsports as they can be adjusted to a slightly softer setting for everyday driving, and can be cranked to very firm if you feel the need. i really like the konigsports, but if...

easiest way to remove the outer plastic casing is to slide a blunt object (steal a knife out the kitchen lol) under the mirror cap going from the narrow end (by the baseplate) and they'll just pop off. removed loads and never broke a clip yet. iirc the glass just pulls out

really impressed, looks like its going to be a beast.

cool vids. i'm still pissing myself at the man who ran the RR. yeah mate you need our remap. then i chucked mine on and he was adamant i'd had it mapped :D

pics and vids required of the mighty sub showing how it should be done :approve:

its knackered matey ;)

still think you should have gone the whole hog and removed the milltek in favour of something a bit raspier ;)

i'm still toying with going to them for a decat, but not sure if my eardrums can take it :S

hate to say it chris, but i told you so :approve:

gutting! did you get the clio back before he went on holiday?

i found the problem with paradas is that in having none reinforced sidewalls after only 4k they were shredded. £115 for 4 fitted though is a bargain.

ive literally just made this decision yesterday as was at tweeks in need of 4 new tyres. had paradas on and really liked them but in the greasy conditions they were absolutely awful. couldnt justify the cost/wear of r888 or ao48's so took a punt on some toyo t1r's and so far seem to be a good...

ady182 will sort you out now.

you can use the aerosol paint out of the lid trick. you just need to paint primer on the surface first. cheaper than buying touch up tubs everytime ;)

lovely engine cover ;) read the first line and thought you'd made an epic mistake, but looks good actually!

Re: PH1 172 Track Car, abit special racing blue should look good if thats the plan :)

all good suggestions so far. i must admit i was impressed with duragloss 111 on the sunflower.

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project missed this thread, just read it through and should be a beast. you've got an awful lot of work ahead of you though lol

buy a silver one and paint it something nice ;)

obviously depends on the nature of the scratch, and how deep it is but any decent detailer should be able to disguise it. luke - have 2 weeks off work from the 20th of this month. so free pretty much everyday then lol

not really anything in particular, should be able to get a minter as theres plenty of them about at the minute. remember to hpi check it though.

luke if you want to meet up i could give you a few helpful tips to get you started?

cif on a none scratch pad will bring them up

pc'd with menzerna intensive, followed up with menzerna final finish. sealed with duragloss 111, then coated the bonnet with supernatural but the difference was so marginal russ decided to leave it just coated in the 111 for him to add additional layers of sealant in the future. windows done...

that middo is damn good ;) i knew you wouldnt be able to resist posting up some pics!

i really struggled to get an MOT this year, as 9 different MOT stations said it failed on excessive noise :approve:

looks like they're only suitable for 1.2-1.6 technically they will fit, but they will not be rated for the weight of the 172 engine so will sag like a b**ch on the front
