PMSL, that's funny, some dick at BMW told me the same thing on the used approved 330d I managed to source for my brother in essex, I said if he'd meet the price, seeing as the two cars were almost identical apart from location, I'd take his one. He went off trying to be all coy and cool and car...
As said, often by the time you factor in the hours, unless you enjoy it, to do a proper job it's normally better to pay someone.
There's quite a few threads, one in guides, about how to paint your wheels.
Should not be left to get bored: New nilfisk pressure washre, some new brushes as mine are all dead, a few new different microfibres (few deep pile, few large for drying), full gliptone leather kit, some rapid dirt shifter, and an AF tripple to keep me happy if I wash it and it's sunny and want...
Now, call me old fashioned, but back in the day before detailing became all scene and stuff, people used to rant and rave about gliptone leather products.. now, I've not heard it mentioned for ages.. what's the craic?
Basically, I need a new leather product, for two reasons:
1) My z4's...
I like this thread, it reeks of honesty, and not need.
Keep it up and keep learning. When I joined CS I couldn't do a thing mechanically. Now I near enough do everything myself.
Be careful, be logical about it, and take your time and you'll not go far wrong. Clio's are a great car to...
Never nice to hear of sad things going on behind the scenes for members, sorry to hear it.
Project looks brilliant, as said, photos are key.
Most importantly I think it needs different wheels, 182 wheels just don't scream supercharged. Ultra's... perfect.
I thought you no longer owned a rag top??? Or have you got something else?
If you're working down the unit at the weekend I can always pop down there mate. I'll get my bits sorted within a week or so.

The mix between the wrap and seriously glossy carbon is amazing mate, like.. superb.
I need to get some bits done ASAP... I'll be popping down in march, 100%, just need to get all the parts together first.
Smashing work northerner. I need to see this at some point, still my favourite car on here.
Thinking about it, I should have popped by whilst in blackburn FFS.
But that's the point, I've been here a long time and watched a lot of people make their motor a "hardcore" trackday car, a lot then hate it and sell up.
I can 100% see the point in making the car feel more focused, stripping it back, rear door cards, do one, even front door cards if you fit a...
You say you're doing track days, right? Now, on these track days, what difference is 1kg of dash top going to make? Or even 5kg of full dash?
It seems to be in more recent years that people have blurred the lines between race cars and track cars. Removing some serious parts to lose 150kg odd...
