Right, wheels are currently like that but due to an incident with a tall curb one of them isn't as mint as it was before (doh:o).
Going to be getting them refurbed and was going to get them done anthracite again but i'm not sure whether to go for a different colour ? Have thought about white...
Its birthday time coming up and the rents keep asking me what I want, seems like a good excuse to get my suspension sorted at a discount rate (ie feck all :eek:).

Please bear with me here as this is a bit of a mammoth post but I want your opinion as to whether you think i'm right much as anything else.
Righto want an alarm and considering what I can get the alarm itself for and compared to the fitted price i'm going to fit it myself.
Not really bothered...
Spotted a petrol blue 182 parked on the side of the road opposite the texaco, seen it round a few times I think.
Lovely colour, no idea if its anyones on here but as theres only 9 in the country I thought i'd post it up.
Well it was bound to happen wasn't it, new wheels and tyres saturday run over a nail in the work car park this morning, b*****d :mad:. Way too close to the sidewall to be repaired so great got to throw away a tyre with about 25 miles on it.
Thing is no place around here has any f1s in stock so...
Black is such a rewarding colour to give a good ol polishing. After getting the new wheels yesterday I was spured on to give it a good clean, first coat of polish its seen in a while i'm ashamed to say.
Came up nicely I thought.
Reno monkeys :mad:.
Anyway just thought i'd share...

Just bought those wheels to replace my standard dynamique wheels and I was wondering how I should clean them.

After what seems like an eternity trying to find some wheels that I liked to replace the ph3 dynamique wheels I had i've finally got these. And before anyone mentions it yes it is going to be lowered asap.
Black wheels are the best thing ever.

I've bought those alloys and i'm going to pick them up on saturday, unfortunately the centre caps aren't included which is a pitty as they finish the wheel off nicely so i'm on the lookout for some.

Right its coming up to the time where i'm going to have to change my front discs and pads and instead of opting for standard tackle I can't see why its not worth spending a bit more and getting something better.

Found that on youtube during my travels, yes its in spanish and its best to mute it but you can get the point. Looks to be a decent enough approach to it, even though i'm sure that ducting isn't meant to be used post filter ?

Now i'm a full believer in you get what you pay for but these are silly cheap in comparision to the eibachs i've been looking at, just wondering if they are actually any good or if anyone has any fitted ?
...will be fully payed for of course, paintwork could do with a good going over and I don't simply have the skills, equipment or patients(sp?) to do it.
Am in Nuneaton in the midlands and will travel no problem within reason.
Anyone want to do me a favour ?? :eek: Would be mucho appreaciated. :D
Right its new tyre time for the clio and I've got no idea what to get, price doesn't really matter within reason i'm looking for the best performance basically.

And all for the pricely sum of £200, great upgrade they look awesome. Just wainting for it to go dark so I can try them out! There the 182 ones but the grey...
Anyway to do the above ?
Seems royal mail have played football with my xenons and the passenger side lense/reflector part has broken off one of the clips inside, could repair it but theres one way I can see I can get into the light to glue it.
