2006 182 49,000 miles.

Okay people, I'm biting the bullet and getting the 182 resprayed white. I just need to decide what colour code for the white? I've seen several options, pearl white, championship white etc. Managed to get an absolute steal on the job, 3,000DHS all in. It's exterior only so the engine won't be...

Nice and subtle.

Mike T. Doesn't come on often, he has a life ;)

Sounds dumb but make sure you've fitted it tight, any air leak will make a blowing noise. It is a good little mod and sounds a lot better I think.

Sounds okay, a little raspy for my ears, could get canny annoying over a long time me thinks.

F4R engine same in 172/182 except manifold on 182.

Bubbles- What colour white is that? I'm getting a quote on Saturday for a respray, need a colour, I know it's gonna be white but not sure which type yet. Been promised under 5k DHS which is 700 quid! BARGIN.

It's still 10k more though and it definitely isn't twice the car.

Just to annoy tubby cos I know he loves it. Recorded a 14.2 in my stripped 182 but it is slightly modded. Tried before I left and achieved a 14.6.

CF bonnet would look the nuts on liquid yellow. Or refurb alloys in different colour? Steering wheel?

Pics?

35mm, white wheels too, tint it.

Ah good o, don't suppose you've got a full guide have you? I imagine disconnecting battery is step uno? I dont want the airbag exploding in my face, lol.

Good job Mat, I've already lost Cruise Control when I changed my ECU so no problem there. Was the wiring easy enough on the wheel? Fairly competent with electronics, did it at A-level.

So am I right in saying you lose ABS with an aftermarket wheel?

You make a good point Mark. I think my parents wouldn't be too happy, although it's my car and all that malarky but can imagine my mum going 'no way are you driving without an airbag in Dubai! lol. What's the best size? Seen quite a few tasty 300mm wheels. How big is the standard wheel?

Didn't realise Miltek were having build quality probs?

Mat, are those the trophy seats? Did you fit harnesses?

Ah thanks, just been doing a bit of searching and see quite a few come with horn buttons etc. Would I be pretty dumb to get the wheel without getting harnesses too? lol.

Hi All, Thinking about getting this wheel: Sorry if these seem daft questions: Does the horn still work? Looks like there is no space for it. Or is this a competition wheel? Also, could I fit harnesses to standard seats or would I definitely need buckets?

Needs lowering doesn't it? ;) Looks sweet, blueflame is shiny!!! Miltek looks a goodun I think.

Awesome pics foxy.

Yes, I'm retarded, just seen all the pics with Delamere Forest on lol.

Delemere forest by any chance? Looks familiar. Good pics Chris.

Moaning minnie!! The Vee won't be any more comfy or less noisy surely?

Jesus Christ! Proper job, I've always looked at those crashes and thought he/she's dead.

The best colour by far when clean!

Tres Bien.

Yes boss ;) As said, read the reviews, talk to the various guys and make your own judgement from that. Why have people said get a faster car when he clearly said he doesn't want to?
