took about 8-12hrs roughly - started on monday and have spent roughly 2hrs a day working on it. used aluminium oxide paper to start - emery peper did not seem to work very well - went on to wet and dry then - Richmcc gave me instructions and I am well pleased - was gonna pay to do it but...

nah - not unless I can find a second hand one that I can work on and still use the car - am gonna do the Renault sport writing though - think that will look good.

just two nuts hold it on - there are three holes on the front of it - just get a long socket and undo the 2 bolts and it comes straight off

After an hour of snading with 40 Grit sandpaper it looked like this Then went on to 120/220/440 Grit Decided to give the centre a coat of Auto Glym metal polish to see how it would look was quite pleased with that - went on to 500/600 grit then 700/800 grit and then finhally...

have you done the fuel rail guard -it doesnt look as shiny as the manifold?

thats cool

I got Hill Power to do mine - they use a local spray shop but they get all the original graphics back on as well as putting some nice Hill Power Graphics on then Lacquer over it so doesnt peel off etc. Looks good. Did mine same silver as the car - hard to see in photos but looks good in reality...

same price as Hill Power then - is there any difference in the actual work that is done??

what is a clay bar - what does it do?

how much do GDI charge to fit Ben or Andy?

ive got some konigsports coming next week - cant wait to get them on!

would you do a group buy on these again Ben - theres loads of people interested and and the best way of getting us to go ahead and spend the cash is if you offer us some money off! - So hows about it???? Anyone up for it??

what size are they mike - 16's??

what wheels have you got Mike?

the uprated lower engine mount from K-Tec helps with this as well - Mike at Rentech fitted for me and although now I can feel a bit of a vibration at tick over the engine hardly moves at all. When I used to let off the accelerator the gear stick would move quite a lot but now it is fixed in...

there is a button on the right hand side of the steering wheel on the dashboard - low down. Says ESP on it - if it aint there you aint got it

i have GSD3's on 17 inch wheels and love them - have never had a problem

i have the ipod Alpine KCA-420i - it works great unless you have an ipod video - it will still work perfectly and sounds great with all music but if you are hoping to watch video back on the ipod and have sound out of the car speakers then best bet would be to use the headphone out on the ipod...

How come lee?

fred are you gonna be able to get my fuel rail guard looking like this?

found one for you

sounds good too and makes the car smoother

i went for the 9853R as goes with the dashboard colour better. The illumination is good as well as you can change various different parts to different colours so I have matched it all to the orange on the dash - looks good. Ask Lee (moderator) for some pictures or have a look in the ice...

good ride with pros but not low enough in my opinion - will have some for sale in a couple of weeks.

like it - gives a bit of class!

yeah its a hill power kit - basically a RamAir filter inside a heat protective shield - its really good - makes a decent sound, not as loud as a K&N etc but still good, plus it looks great. Still debatable whether any power gain etc but I like it and did not notice any power loss over the K&N...

no it doesnt peel off - its been there for 2 years now and still as good as new - battery cover doesnt get hot really - in that picture there is also a K-Tec badge on the corner of it and now also a Rentech sticker and have no problems with either.

hey grumpy1 that was a bit uncalled for - chill out!!

chamoix leather!

would be quicker in the 5 turbo - if you havent been in one you should - i have never been in a car like it since - but then Im judging it on my modded 1.4 turbo. They are so light and low to the floor etc they are just great - plus there is a chance of the engine lasting more than a week...
