Im going to buy some harnesses, I would really like the Renault Sport Sabelt ones from RSport, but I fear they are going to be really expensive!! I'll ring to find out on Monday.
Plan B is to but the normal ones, the cheapest place I can find is here...
Hi guys,
My new bucket seats arrived earlier this week, and as Ive got the day off today I thought I'd have a go at fitting them.
Im not the best at this sort of thing, so go easy on me!
Ive doing the work ont he passenger side first, incase anything goes wrong, then I can still drive the...
Hi chaps,
After working on the car for a bit, I went out for a bit of a drive, only to have the mother of all stones hit my windscreen!
The cracks are reasonably big, I know it's hard to explain without pics, I'll try to get one up later. But I just wondered if there was any official rules...
Yes another Gloucester photoshoot!
This was mainly to test my new rig, to see if it worth all the effort!!

Overall Im very happy with the new rig, it takes A LONG time to setup, but it's worth it. Oh...and we had a few ground clearance issues with...
I'll hijack a photo from another thread in this section to ask the question:
How strong are the sills that run underneath the car? ie. if I were to clamp something on it, that is very heavy, would I have any risk of the sills 'coming off' from the car?
And are they metal or plastic etc...
Got contacted recently by a guy who wanted a photoshoot on his lovely 147GTA. I went out last night (with the help of Burp) to see what I could do with it :)
Pretty happy with the results....

Hey Chaps, most if you saw me wandering about with my camera, I tried my best to get everyone's car, but I was doing other things too!
The photos are by no means awesome, just quick snapshots!!
So soz if I didnt get yours (or you think the photo's s**t!)...
Today my first customer for my machine polishing services came round :)
Quade's 172 Cup looks mint, so we gave it the DA treatment to look even better!
We started at around 9:30, and finished everything just after 6pm! I am knackered lol!
I havent got as many before shots as I'd have liked...
Last night myself, bomber and Quade (and bro) went on another photoshoot, nothing too serious, just a bit of a laugh and to scout some good locations.
The main area we were messing about in was a multi-storey car park, mainly because the weather was awful, so if it rained (which it did often!)...
On Sunday evening, myself, Quade, Bomber and Burp got together for a little photoshoot.
After practising by myself, I wanted to get a bit more practice with a few of the locals :)
I'll let the pics do the talking......

After washing the car (again!), I decided to pop out to have a play with my studio flashes. I had a play with the rig a while ago with dissapointing result, but today went MUCH better!
These photos are to get myself some more experience in external lighting, so I wasnt really paying attention...
Just a few pics from Oulton Park today. I had a really s**t day if Im honest :(
After the downpour in the morning I was in a s**t mood, and my photos reflected that......crap :(
These were the best ;)

I was just wondering whats involved in hard wiring things like sat nav into the car, so you get rid of the ugly cables lying over the dash.
Ive got a road angel which I had hard wired in my previous car, but that was done at halfords when I bought it years ago. Ive got a different one in my...
Saturday was the first chance I got to play with my rig for the first time in AGES!
Im a bit rusty, which shows in the pics, Im not overly happy with them tbh.
It didnt help that after the first few shots, the rig broke :(. It's only minor, I was tightening it all up, and one of the bolts...
In October I had 4 yrs NCB, so I will have 4 yrs and 6 months (in March). If I cancel my current policy, and start a new one - can I transfer the 4 yrs WITH the 6 months NCB? Or can I only transfer the 4 full years?
I ask because I am thinking of moving insurance, but if I loose half a years...
Following on from spraying my badges graphite grey, I had my alloys refurbished and resprayed to match :)
Also today I removed the back seats as they are pointless.
A quick shot to show the badges in graphite grey:
And a bit more room to transport my mountain bike too!:
And a few very...
I'm going to have my alloys refurbed very soon, but I have a quick question regarding treating them afterwards.
My alloys will be completely refurbed, including spraying. My question is, do they have to be left for a while for the paint/sealant to cure or anything like that after?
So can you...
The company I work for has just moved into the Vale Park industrial estate, and Ive noticed (and heard!!) a blue 182 around there quite a lot.
I assume you work there, and I think I followed you going home towards Tewkesbury/cheltenhem.
You on here?
Im starting to regret my decision to go with direct line for my insurance, they are pretty good value (based on my comparisons with other comps) BUT they do not allow any mods at all as I am under 25 :(
My premium with them is £520. And Im seriously thinking of cancelling the policy (which...
As I was bored today, I decided to respray my front and back diamonds. Im getting my alloys refurbed soon too, so this was a good test to see if the colours would look good on the car. As the alloys will be refurbed in graphite grey, I sprayed both diamonds in this colour too :)
Ive posted it...
I did post this a while ago, but didnt get much feedback :(
I visited a wheel refurb place near me the other day, and I think Im finally going to get my wheels fully refurbed.....the only question is...what colour do I have them!?
I could stick to the standard colour, which looks like this...
Im not sure if you are on here or not, but as I see you pretty much every morning going through Tewkesbury, I wondered who you are. :)
The car is a black 182 with grey racing stripes, and I see you in the morning at just before 8am, usually as you are near the water treatment works.
Im usually...
Yes I decided to bite the bullet and get a G220. Today was the first chance I got to play with it.
I decided to polish my Mums car, partly because I wanted to practice, so I would fuk my car up when I did that! But mainly because the condition of the paint on my Mums car is awful! There are...
Some more really basic questions!:
If, for example, I wax to do a full clean of my car, ie SRP, EGP and then a couple of layers of wax, how would I know when I need to redo this process?
Is it a simple case of the looks starting to deteriorate?
Also, how do I know that applying other...
Since I can't make any mods to my car (insurance :(), the only thing I can do is clean it!! So this had lead to an ever growing collection of products!
First draw:
14 bottles of various Autoglym products. I nver intended to have this many, but when I heard the valet case thing was half price at...
How about this for a video!! B.e.a.utiful!

I'm in a dilemma. I just cant decide whether I should buy a machine polisher or not. Ive been looking into the megs G220, but I dont know if I can justify spending that much money!
I finished properly cleaning/polishing my car the other day (using SRP), and I cant help but think the result...
As my bday is coming up soon, one thing that I MIGHT ask my rents to contribute to is a pressure washer, exciting I know!
But Im just not sure whether it would be worth it or not! I would also get a snow foam kit, but are these worth it too?
Does foaming your car have any difference to a good...
