Absolute perfection. Anyone know what wheels they are??? Need moar of this sort of stuff Turkish!

No idea how you managed to warp it! Support it on some wooden blocks in a similar way to how it would sit on the car. It'll help keep it's shape, on the off chance the solvents in the paint are causing the plastic to soften. It'll also ensure you cover the areas you see when it's on the car.

This will go well.

Anytime mate, just holler.

Love the first one Rhys! That's perfect! +1 on getting it back on the road, really can't wait.

Got the ARB all fitted up today. Was going to fit the coilovers today, but my hubs don't fit, I was told they would but it turns out I need 323 ones. :mad: Anyway: Yet another delay.

Introduction To Detailing Meet Photos Took a few today. Fantastic turnout, thanks to everyone who came from CS, really showed us off in a good light I though :) Demo car for the day: Foxy testing a new fabric sealant with red wine: Cheers again to everyone who came along :)

f**king. A. To. That. :cheers:

Until early afternoon usually.

Yeah, I've fully tripped up recently, female s**t has probably put me a month behind where I wanted to be. Lots to catch up with. Can't wait to have this mint for Trax.

No worries, congrats on the little'un :) Sorted the control arms out today. Original rubbers were destroyed, arms were looking rough, and threads were rusty. Popped down to a local car place, picked up a pair of random ball joints for a couple of quid: Burnt the rubber out of the ARB...

Most electric drills have soft start anyway, so use that but don't go mental? If you're gentle with the trigger, you should be able to get a speed above the maximum of the cordless, but not wound all the way up on the electric one.

FLOL! SMB.

You're apologising? Did you organise the marathon?... ​;)

Edinburgh is an awesome place, I really like number 5.

Nope. The "plan" (if I can really call it that) is to get the car rolling again and usable, then I'll get started on upgrading parts once it's a rolling project. Braided hoses/brake upgrade are among the many plans!

Nothing overly exciting today: Struggling to get the bushes out of the new control arms. Going to try sawing them out over the weekend. A change to my personal life now means I have a lot of spare time, so hopefully progress should pick up to a decent rate soon :)

Yeah, I worry the turnout is going to be hampered tbh, would be a shame if it was.

As above, me and a fair few from the NW CS region are going to Spain for a week, meaning we will miss CSS. As said though, the last 2 CSS's have been fantastic, and it's still growing and evolving, meaning this year should be even better. ​It's a great day out and one that cannot be missed if...

It's a meet at a detailing company. The Dodo Juice rep will be there to show us some products. There will be other forums in attendance. 1. Eddie 2. Joe,3. MatthewR 4. Jon.G 5. Rob 6. Nick 7. JamesBryan 8. Boffey 9. Dolan 10. Brandon 11. msphotographic 12. Chris-182 13. Ben (Mate from Type...

God, I forgot about that. He had a leather headlining in it FFS.

I'll probably be around from about half 8ish.

This day isn't for people to get their car cleaned, it's to sample the Dodo Juice range. If you put your car forward as the guinea pig, it'll be exactly that, panels part waxed, other panels part corrected. If you want a free detail, this probably isn't the place for you. The Dodo rep might...

What year/shape?

If you want any help or advice on E21's get onto the E21 forum: http://www.bmwe21.net/forum/ Plenty of advice on there, and loads of guides. Likewise, you can always drop me a PM, I'll be happy to help where I can

I'm sure you know where I stand on this. Ha, this no longer applies then: ​;)

Come on, what's this?...

It's because I applied it too thick :o

Carpet was £10+ VAT. Segals Motor Trimmings in Salford. Don't know if you're local, but if you are, go down as apposed to online. They have some mega bargains, especially if you get the end of the roll. My headlining, underlay and carpet has cost me £67 inc VAT. ​Bargains, I'm doing it right ;)

Dried underseal looks so much better :) Picked up my carpet and underlay today: Mouldable charcoal carpet, bloody lovely to touch too. Very soft :)
