just had em done back in the standard colour?

good god, i can almost always find something nice about a modified car but jesus christ... and almost 2k too!

ah fair enough then lol. lmao at sunseed yellow

its possible but it looks shite so wouldnt bother lol

take a look at makavellis cover what i did, thats real liquid yellow. Liquid yellow paint costs a fortune prob why they did it in a different colour. i know it costs me 35 quid for it as its two coats, 1 of yellow and 1 of pearl. How much did u pay if u dont mind me asking? btw noticed you've...

thats not liquid yellow, did a bodyshop do it because if they did they did you over lol. Liquid yellow is a darker yellow with loads of pearl in it.

i hand paint the letters back in ;) works of art my badges lol. You cant really mask em off as it leaves a sharp edge which is liable to chip or peal.

well i'm getting a reputation first lol ;) Craig - no worries mate i've got a few waiting to be done at the mo anyhow so no bother, just pm me when u want something doing. As for pics of em on pm bubbles, dannyboy, makavelli, timclio172 as they all have the badges pictures on their car.

i buy the 2.0 stickerss from a local graphics place Craig - personal preference to be honest, i currently love liquid yellow, but may be a bit much against the black. On black cars a dark red looks good, however i would prob use a basic metallic instead of candy as it looked no different...

Well i'll be honest when i say i've got a couple of things waiting to go out at the mo, i normally charge cost of paint plus a tenner, plus postage so for example liquid yellow, the paint costs me 30 quid so i'll charge you around the 45 quid mark, the colour on andys is candy red and that cost...

couple of the ones i've done, also did bubbles, and makavellis new one which might be worth a look

on aftermarket ones only one of the lugs will fit so you have to stanley knife the one that doesnt off

yeah ive gotya. i think mine will get done in sunflower yellow, unless i can find a nice polished one - think ive seen one on the k-tec website. http://www.alloy-wheel-refurb.co.uk/ ive also got your dash inserts as i saw mr moderator last night.

at a guess circa £50+ off chipsaway. but really difficult to tell without seeing it in real life

you keep trying to flog those pipes! where are mine btw ;) glad you like it, from the amount of time you've had the cover i thought you weren't going to bother fitting it (i was going to ask for it back to put on mine lol)

how big is the area? if its fairly small then i'd be tempted to have somebody like chips away repair it, otherwise youll need the panel blown in/resprayed at a bodyshop

you wanna use the same people that did my wheels. top marques in fenton. did my wheels in a day, and its a perfect finish. i'm going to be taking some strut braces to him to be powdercoated. i knew you couldnt live with the fluff ;)

i found some velcro discs in halfords. think they were only about £1 a pack and they held around 2kg per disc so more than secure enough. i shall be heading down myself later in search of some for the submarine.

i like auto-paint.co.uk but for proper bodyshop paint a local paintshop (supplies shop that sort out the local bodyshops) should be able to sort you out. i dont like halfords paint mixing, but theres been a couple of instances recently when ive used them and been fairly happy with the...

both cars looking good. what's the ride like on the FK's ?

Re: s**t insurance company wont insure on exhaust. essentially. in a word you would be royally screwed if you fitted it

mine took 5 days :S

it does indeed. your screwed if it through a company such as CIS, then its in their policy shedule they dont cover/insure any mods. easiest bet is to cancel your appointment, and to wait until youve got your own insurance

be brave!! just think of all the time you could spend PCing it afterwards ;)

soak it in a strong mix of shampoo, and then rinse it off under pressure. this should lift most of it if you agitate it with a brush. then get the final stuff off with engine and machine cleaner or autosol / a similar metal cleaner

black gold, and liquid yellow looks good. i did one, but sadly no pics of it on this computer. otherwise i like andromeda which is like a grey with some different flip/pearls in it. cant go wrong with a color coded one though :)

deffo always go for the lenso's. they're a good make, but not as strong/light as some other brands. i prefer them in gunmetal myself,but would look nice. for £400 are they second hand 17's, or brand new 15's

^ cheers :) well hopefully the insurance company will fit the right bonnet in the first place lol

Taylor - i've got liquid yellow, black gold, petrol blue, blue to green flip, blue to red flip, hell i've even got some racing blue left somewhere lol Andy - cheeky git ;) i shall get in touch with my suppliers tomorrow Dave - i'm just waiting for your orders ;)
