This one of the best BG's I've seen on here! Fantastic work!
You seem very handy at cleaning too, paintwork is exceptional! I tried the clay bar today on a few parts and it kept dragging despite plenty if lubrication! I'd pay you to clean mine
Hope to have one similar to yours one day, brilliant
Okay cheers mate! Yeah I brought an expensive lacquer with control on the nozzle. pro XL or something! Okay decent cheers mate I will be looking forward to seeing that.
Nah normal primer, I did light dust coats then a thick coat. It's not moisture in the air because usually with heat it'll disappear or over time of drying but it doesn't disappear at all! It's all dried up now and it's white, I shall lightly sand it back tomorrow and re-lacquer it.
Gave the car a good scrub and wax during the week, I love the way a black car shines!
Yes I know I need to sort out that horrible dent in the door sill and the go faster wheel arch scrape it's a working progress!
Turtle wax's wet tyre look really is wet
Headlights are still looking good...
I don't think I'll bother with the induction kit then. Doesn't seem worth the money, thanks for the heads up on that one
Oh really? Didn't know that was possible, that would be a better idea for me having just spent money on wheel s
I wasn't implying yours was slammed buddy, just was saying in general!
Ah I'll look more into it, just brought some locking wheel nuts too, they'll have to go back! I was thinking about getting a induction kit, what are your thoughts on that?
Lows and spacers are definitely needed! I don't have a lot of knowledge about things like that, hence why I haven't done it, I wouldn't have a clue what to look for and how to fit them
finally got round to sorting out the nice pictures i took, I should've probably cleaned the car before I took these, oh well
I know they aren't the best but I don't have a super good camera, iphone quality isn't too bad though, more updates at the weekend!
I have filled a dent in the side of my door sill, I applied the lacquer after leaving it in warm water and then shaking for 2 minutes, I decreased the surface and the lacquer has turned milky, doing my head in, it looks bobbly too but it's dead smooth, help?!

Update;
My interior was crying out for some nice mats, so I ordered some off eBay. I though they were going to be cheap and nasty because you never know with eBay but they are brilliant and a good strong material! Here they are
The red black interior scheme was alive! I'm currently on the...
This is totally out of the blue and I know I probably won't get anyone. But is anyone travelling from Scotland down towards East? Or even close too? Few things I might be buying up near Scotland. Dunfermline to be exact just thought I'd ask if anyone might be travelling that way. Random I know...
Well I didn't know that. I'll have a look into that. How can you diagnose a bad sensor though? I don't want to just spend £20 odd quid and for it to be the exact same! I'll look into it though thanks
No brainier then! I made £20 profit selling mine!
Yeah know what you mean, needs doing, but I'd rather do other stuff first.
Nice one mate, I'll keep an eye out for that.
Thank you.
Well yeah didn't expect everyone to like them, but I like them
Bloody hell that is good then! I can get over...
Ah didn't realise that. What did you do with them? Yeah I'm more into like the turinis is it? Can't remember what they're called but it's just personal preference really! Lowered a tiny bit and spacers is on the list!
Wow really? Thanks make that means a lot, I must say I wasn't expecting them...
To be honest, I'd liked your old wheels, if you'd of got them refurbished in black they would've looked great imo, just not a fan of the 182 wheels, which is a shame probably because they seem popular haha. just going to lower it a tad and get spacers I think, have you lowered yours?
UPDATE:
This has been put back quite a bit as had a few problems and been really really busy. But here is the update. Enjoy
The alloys were finished, balanced and ready to put on the car. Pictures aren't the best but I have taken some nice ones to upload soon
Really pleased with how they've...
