unlucky mate. there was a guy a couple of weeks ago selling some bbs rims in black. they were 15" but i think they would look very cool on your car. also he wasnt after much (£70 fo a all 4). will try to find them for you.
i think that this will work but end of the day you could have just bought a pipercross kit from abay with the adapter plate for like £20-25. as for the reducer you will strugle to find one with those sizes but have a look on ebay and you might find something
is it the 15" or 16" oz f1's you are after. because there were 2 sets of 15's the last time i checkd. imo 16's would look better. will keep an eye on ebay for you and if i find something i will let u know mate.
looking good graham mate. much better than before. thought you were getting super Ts but like what rob 88 said keep an eye on ebay. think ultras would look good on it. also think that all your plans for the car are spot on.
ditz it said that a partial fee may have to be paid if they car is taken away but i think that it was their policy to allow car to be taken way and tested again fo free because there are other garages that they do mot's for. after all why would he admit i was right if that wasnt the case
i dont know what he is like with other customers but juging by what chris has said then i wouldnt be surprised if he has riped a fair few other people off. he saw that i was young so probably thought that i would be an easy target.
oh i forgot to say that when i asked him if when i get the car repaired by another garage if i can get it mot tested for free at his garage he said that i had to pay £26 (half price) but on one of the posters in the office it said that testing it again after failure whithin 10 days is free so i...
outcome was that i got the car back and i didnt pay the £41 for the diagnostic so all i paid for was the mot at £52. he was wanting me to pay for the diagnostic but i just said no because i never asked for it in the first place and then he just shut up. got it booked in again at a guy on...
it wasnt my fault that customers came in after me. plus i have the right to argue with him if i am not happy with his service. i mean charging me for 5 hours labour to change an abs sensor is "dumb" especially since i got qouted £30 today from a different garage. i wasnt born yesterday so when...
yeh got the car back today guys. i didnt pay the £41 for the diagnostic so all i paid for was the mot at £52. he was wanting me to pay for the diagnostic but i just said no because i never asked for it in the first place and then he just shut up. got it booked in again at a guy on wednesday who...
maybe if you state a price which you think covers the material costs and reflects your time spent on them, then im sure many people including myself will be interested.
thats what i will probably do mate. it will be a lot cheaper for me as well. hope he agrees to it but i doubt it. plus i very much doubt that it was 5 hours labour to change an abs sensor and wire a brake light.
thats what i am worried about mate but before i take the car back i will give it a very close inspection and a good drive. if i notice anything wrong then its going right back to his garage.
the garage was called kevin pirrie and son. its oposite matalan-avoid them if i were you. also he said that without the high level brake light it wouldnt pass the mot. and cat171 you are right these garges use vague terms to do you so next time i will get a price written down on paper before...
merk i wouldnt do that but lol. markcup why have i been let off lightly. charging me for 5 hours labour and a car part that i was not told how much would cost seems heavy to me. its his fault and him and the mechanic aknowleged that but they were annoyed because they had to put everything back...
i never asked him to do any work. i asked him to do an mot. he shouldnt have done any work without giving me a price for the work needed for the car to pas its mot. all the garages i have been to before phone me before doing any work on the car telling me what exactly needs to be done with an...
went to get my mot done yesterday morninig at what i thought was a good garage. got a phone call yeserday at about 4pm and the guy at the garage said that it failed. it needed the wheel arches to be secured because they were rubbing on the tyres because the car has been lowered- minor job. it...
just wondering mate did the guy make them from scratch or did you give him your thumb grip off your steering wheel and then got him to cover them in carbon fibre film?
i got my side strips, door handles and sideskirts all colour coded for £160 and that includes fitting the sideskirts. so i think that £300 is a bit ott
