    Grungy underground car park shoot with Scrooge's stinky siesta wagon.

    I've told him the plates look pony. He's not right in the head though, so he ignores me. The irony of 'you talk funny' coming from you however, is incredible. Much love ;) x

    Grungy underground car park shoot with Scrooge's stinky siesta wagon.

    Photos coming up .. Left work early for a bromantic evening with Scrooge. Poor boy has all the gear (well, most of it) and no freakin' idea. He Iron-x'd the barge at the weekend but the quick'n'dirty wash didn't leave much to be desired, so this evening we washed, clayed, washed...

    subwoofer idea...

    The problem is that the RAC will rescue a 182 as it didn't leave the factory with a spare. They [read: all recovery companies] have been less than interested in people who have removed their spare wheels "unnecessarily".

    Classic Stock Hatch @ Donington

    Well that sucks....! :dapprove:

    Any itunes experts? (PC)

    I thought it already had TBH. Anyway, not a problem. Your invoice is in the post... :evil:

    Any itunes experts? (PC)

    I would probably.... Delete everything out of your iTunes.. obviously leaving the originals on the ext-HDD (unplug it from the PC if needs be).. check the settings in iTunes to make sure it does not copy files to the iTunes library*. Plug the ext-HDD in .. drag one song/album into iTunes. It...

    subwoofer idea...

    It's never going to make your fillings shake is it ?! It's a pair of small speakers cleverly engineered in a small package. Buy a 10/12" active box from Halfords for ~£100 and see how you get on. Something like this...

    subwoofer idea...

    So ? It'd be under your boot carpet anyway. Doesn't need to look good.

    HDR getting overdone?

    Looks awful IMO.. like it was taken on a fax machine / blackberry and then mangled with that bloomin' Instagram. Get it right on camera first time round, ESPECIALLY during bright sunny daylight for goodness sake ;)

    Exhaust sounds like its blowing but isn't

    Take a gloved hand to the end of the tailpipe to block it off .. serious gloves like those chunky gardening ones .. and get someone to stick their head under the middle of the car to check for blows. You'll soon see/hear it. You'd also notice water dribbling from holes when the car's just...

    Next Summer European Tour?

    Interesting...

    subwoofer idea...

    Unless you cover it with something substantial somehow, you'll probably have less than with a box. 10" in a sensible box on one side doesn't take up that much room really. Easy to remove if you need all the space available and you have your spare too.

    HDR getting overdone?

    Nice pic and I agree on a pitch black sky (in most cases) but that needs cooling IMO.. too yellow for me but I'm a fussy wotsit :o

    HDR getting overdone?

    Hmm.. not amazed by either of those TBH.. Bingo :)

    car insurance (specifically for me)

    Sack them off. Companies that try to bump it up every year need binning.. Or call them and tell the, you're leaving, you've got a quote for £1200 and you're off. Comparing rodents .... Think about it. ;)

    New to detailing, need some guidance.

    Read the guides ;) Don't go mental to start with. Get a few things from CYC or i4D and see how you get on. There's enough threads in this section asking the same thing on a weekly basis :rasp:

    Are you actually calling companies and speaking to humans or just comparing desert rodents ?

    RB rolling on primer OZs

    99% of F1s on ph2s look awful. This is in the other 1%. Good work !!! (Still need to see this dude :o )

    car insurance (specifically for me)

    You've put a different non-RS interior in and you've informed your insurance company and you're wondering why they've taken every opportunity to charge you more money ?! LOLz. But seriously, you're not going to get your insurance voided if your interior is a different shade of grey to what it...

    car insurance (specifically for me)

    Why/what are you declaring as interior mods ?! Bucket seats I can understand but I don't think you've got them ?! Return the car to almost standard and get a 'normal' policy with someone like Sky thru CS.

    HDR getting overdone?

    High Dynamic Range. You take 3 "identical" photos, one over exposed, one under, and one 'just right'. Smush them together in photoshop or other software and it brings the highlights and shadows out because you can't normally get all that detail in one shot, and you end up with something nice...

    HDR getting overdone?

    Real HDR or just over/badly-processed !? The only HDR I like are insides of churches...

    'Clio speaker package' Ripoff?? Advice please!!

    Change the HU first and see how you get on. No point changing the speakers first, it's the same crap OEM amp driving them, they will sound near enough the same. Best thing to do IMO/IME is put a subtle sub in the boot, lose the low freqs to the door speakers and away you go. You'll never...

    2001 clio overheating in traffic?

    I'd guess the fans not working then.

    Squeaky "L" Shape Door plastic thingamajig!

    If it's squeaking, it is because it's [too many it's's :S] rubbing against something else. Isolate the noise.. foam tape.. job done... probably !
