Like it but... Carbon mudflaps? Really small diffuser? Stupid red line on carbon wings?
Red with carbon looks great normally, however that looks shite! More money than sense comes to mind...
On the point of resistors, what ones are needed for the steering wheel airbag? Might get this all sorted this weekend as im fed up of the bloody lights on the dash!
Amen to that! If im lucky I get 240 to a full tank, never do motorways so always around town and A roads. Never even blink an eyelid at how much it costs! Maybe I should be driving a bigger/faster car!
Yeah this is what I said to the guy, Team Dynamics paint all of the wheel! The wheels I have are Prima Racing PL's which are the wheels i'm having problems with!
Will never buy from Prima Racing again, Tuners only get one chance with me nowadays, if they lie, mess me about or don't have decent...
Just a quick question to all of you... When you've bought a set of brand new wheels, aftermarket/standard do they come half painted (faces only) or completely painted?
Having ordered some wheels from a company, when they turned up they were in a terrible condition (dirt under paint/unsprayed...
I get this all the time with my Cup, as well as when moving away slowly and stopping I get this knocking.... Checked all the mounts and any big bolts underneath/in the engine bay and still get it, just something i've got used to yet nothing has broken yet so it can't be that bad!
Get some side on pictures to show how mch there in the arches, they really dont look that bad from the other picture, just lower it and it should look alright!
Looks really good pal, glad your happy with them! Really sets off your car now, the best rep on here! Doesn't look like it needs spacers on the front from that angle either, just get the rear decked!

Yeah standing still in traffic used to be quite bad for me also! But once your moving again its amazing how quickly the temps drop! Didnt take any measurements, just purely trial and error. After playing about with it and looking through the grill with a light, its probs about 5mm from touching...
Tbh I dont think it looks that bad! Very brave doing it to a very new car, but with the right set of wheels it could really set off the car! Even if no one wants it with the wrap on, it can be taken off easy enough...
Absolute idiot comment from the 2nd post :clown:
Good luck with the sale!
Cheers pal! Na i'm not into my underbonnet cosmetics that much but before I painted some things and 90k miles of not being cleaned, something needed doing!
Do you find your heatshield gets really hot being a metal? And stays really hot?
Nick
Some people think it would reflect but when I had a metal heatshield, once it was hot it stayed hot for a while! With plastic and two layers side by side like mine, one side gets warm whereas the otherside stays cool!
Opps! Double post!

Tbh with you there isn't a lot more space where the hot air could get into... With a decent sized caf your more likely i'd imagine to be pushing the hot air away from the areas...
Almost finished in there now... Just need to crack on some more with polishing the RenaultSport and repainting the induction pipe after scratching it making the perspex heatshield!
Next things on the agenda for the engine bay...
New coolant bottle and coolant flush
New oil cap
And...
