+1 i work in a body shop and have to use g3 very often. your paint would have to be very very thin to burn through when using by hand but when using a machine its more liklel that you will burn through. this is because of the heat buildup from the mopping pad. to help this i would strongly...
its a new thing that has just come out. it like face book but aimed at french car enthusiasts like our selves and i thought it could come in handy for organising meets and other such things as well as maybe gaining a few more members too.
iv put a cliosprot. net group up allthough im not sure im...
you wont really get any grunt from tick over from an induction kit bud. you only really hear them when you are driving. if you want grunt from tickover then probly better looking at exhusts.
start with some corse paper when i did mine i firstly used a dremmel. then sanded it with 80 grit and worked my way upto 1200 grit then polished with auto sol. be prepared to do ALOT of sanding though
very nice cleaning your wheels would make all the difference though. just give them one good clean followed by some g3 then slap a load of wax on them followed by some silicon spray and nothing will stick to them so you will only need to give them a quick rinse with the rest of the car. job done.
lowering springs. as long as you dont go too low you can still use the standard shocks. gives better handling and an over all better look. you can also get cheap strut braces which also help with the handling (altho some say they dont make a difference) but either way it looks good. and...
could have but i was trying to get them done asap as i had to get them done in a day because i needed the car to get home in. plus im not sure how long it has been like that and sometimes the alloy can crack if you hit it wrong and it is weak so i just decided to leave it. it`l probly be...
yeah mate just pushes back. i put a load of masking tape around the badge when taking it off to stop myself scratching the paint which is also a good idea lol.
you have to gently prize it with a small screw driver or a pic of some sort from all around the edge and eventually it will come. just be carefull as ther are little tabs on all the sides.
got some more pics as i have done the centre badges now and put the other badges on properly
just...
its held on by two pegs on the back so when i took it off i was just carefull not to bust them so it just pushed back on
gona out some badge tape on the other badges tomorrow so i can get them back on.
that should be fine then mate as long as there is no big chunks missing lol
ill ask for you tomorrow.
oh yeah would it just be the face of the wheels you want white or all the inside too. just asking as it may influence the price they give me.
they are not on yet mate. if you look closly, you can see that it is just masking tape which i put on be for taking the badges off so i knew where exactly to put them once painted :rasp:
i got it done CHEAP as i did it at work but i can ask for you if you want. the proper price is £65 a wheel but i might be able to get you a cheaper price. what condition are they in bud?
