Renault don't sell a touch up pen or aerosol for that matter for anthracite . I used Rover storm grey to refurb my spare alloy . I'd say its a 99% match . I heard somebody mention they used Rover gunmetal grey as well . From that to that

Oh right . Sorry you had a bad experience with em .

Top job there mate . Looks really good :)

Most places over tighten your wheels . The first thing i do when i get home is crack em open and torque em back up .

Why ? What ya gonna find in the small print ? I've been with Flux for a few years now . Never had problem with em when i tw*ted a motorway crash barrier , they sorted it out no problem :)

How much ?? I got my renewal off them a couple of days ago . £652 :eek: Went online and got a quote off privilege and it was £448 so Flux beat it with a quote of £445 , now i've got a quote off ashbourne £432 with proof by post , so Flux said they would beat that . So they've knocked off...

I got my free sample of View glass cleaner yesterday off hitharder . Results = Absolutely the dogs b*llocks ;) I've gotta say its the best stuff i've used . Better than the AG glass polish or fast glass . Just spray on , buff up with a cheapo microfibre cloth , no effort needed and my...

The greenstuff pads are the upgraded pad for fast road use . The yellow stuff are really aimed at track use .

It'll be very interesting to see the results Giles !

I'd take it back and let him sort it out . It was his job initially so his job to sort out any problems . I'm not sure what your problem with the brake dust on the wheels is ? Did he do some work on your wheels as well ??

Jesus christ mate . Not good :( hope you get it sorted fella .

Privilege are good . Just got my renewal quote of Flux , £652 :eek: , got a quote off privilege online for £448 so Flux dropped theirs to £445 .Then ashbourne undercut flux to £432 , so they are gonna beat it when i send them the proof ;) Gonna save around £220 just with a couple of phone...

You can't beat a bit of pledge . My mum uses it all the time . I think she'd fcukin' pledge me if i sat still long enough , lol ;)

^^^^ Just tyre bead soap on your rims , easily removed unlike scratches :(

Its the fuel rail cover mate . Nothing to worry about . There are 2 10mm bolts on the front that will have come loose , just tighten them up . Sorry for whoevers pic i've nicked lol ;)

Not masked up , overspray on your grill ! Tbh mate doesn't sound like a pro bodyshop to me . Moral of the story is don't get a mate to do work for you , it can cause too many problems as in your case , work not done to a high standard or not done at all .

Nice one mate . Hope it puts a smile on your face . Now you can set about cleaning it . You can b(r)uy some good stuff from www.carwashnwax.com . ;) And techincally scutch in the sense he was talking he mean't bought :rasp:

Like eviljohn says . They shouldn't leave any scratches . Only 2 scratches :eek: !

I used some pledge on a hire car in Menorca last year . I scratched it to fcuk all down one side taking it down a dirt track full of over hanging trees , worked a treat , lol ;) Saved me forking out for any damage when i handed it back :eek:

When i had my 172 i went to powerflow in Burnley . Franchises all over the country . Cost me £270 for a stainless stealth catback , fabricated and fitted , only took them 90 mins . Nice sound too . Lifetime warranty :) http://www.powerflowexhausts.net/dealerlocator.cfm

My toad 850t works off my original key fob . Check up under the glove box , or under the carpet under the glove box , sometimes the alarm box is situated there .

They all look good when they're clean . Its just keepin' em clean , lol . My arctic blue .

Looks good in anthracite , also as said white would look good but just a bit of a b*stard to keep clean .

You could try adrian flux or ashbourne . http://www.adrianflux.co.uk/ http://www.ashbourneinsurance.co.uk/ If your under 21 without 1 years ncb its always going to be expensive though :(

My mate used these to get some dents out of his X3 .He did a very good job and was cheap .In the north west . http://www.dent-busters.co.uk/

^^^^ Cheers Paul . It didn't come in a tin though , lol . I'll give it to my mate and let him install it . i don't want to install it on my pc if i'm not gonna use it . Cheers :)

I've just downloaded this for a mate . A guy at a garage told him this is what they use . But i dont want to install it on my pc . Anybody know exactly what it is , is it any good , for what cars . My mate has vauxhall astra , bog standard petrol , nothing special . Just wondered if anybody...

Still think it sounds weird just because its near the wear indicator . Your best bet is phone your insurance company first , get their advice on fitting wider tyres .

Sounds a bit dodgy to me mate . The wear indicator is on the outside of the tyre , in the tread . The repair is made on the inside of the tyre , its just a rubber patch . The only time they won't usually repair a tyre is when its gone into the sidewall of the tyre . I'd take the tyre elsewhere...

Oh right .I never realised the wheel was different . I've seen issues with the steering wheel grips as well . On my last 172 i had for just over 4 years i never had a problem , touch wood the 182's grips are ok too . I guess its down to how much your hands sweat , if its slightly acid ?? You...
