^^^ Sounds right to me . When i fitted a k+n apollo air filter to my 182 it said disconnect the battery for 30 mins . I didn't and the car came to a halt and had to be towed home by the AA . So i rang k+n and spoke to a guy in the R & D department . He told me i should have disconnected the...
Your post code also plays a major part on how much you'll pay . If you live in a high risk area expect pretty high quotes :
Have a look here for your post code :

Just got to a local motor accessory shop or part supplier that mix paint . It'll cost you more from the net cos of p+p . I pay around £7.00 for a 400ml can .

I prefer these for applying the polish , better than the little yellow foam pads imo .

You can't buy 205-110 - Ixell paint in aerosols . You might be able to buy it if your mates got proper bodyshop facilties though from here .

I think you'll struggle like fcuk to get it off tbh mate , even with nitromors . You'll probably end up with bits of the yellow paint you can't get off and it'll look worse than ever . I'd just paint over them with hammerite black .
Its not exactly hard graft is it , spraying and rubbing down a bit of plastic lol . Doesn't take long either . Well worth doin yourself imo , if you just take your time , keep things grease and dust free , and bobs your uncle :)
I wouldn't bother with an extended warranty tbh if you've never had any major problems so far . If it's been backwards and forwards to the dealership during your ownership then it might be worth considering imo .
It could be a couple of things .
For a start . Does the cd player support playing cd-r's ? Also are you trying to play mp3's or audio cd-r's ? Using cheap n nasty discs sometimes doesn't help . Get good quality cd-r's .
You need to rub the sidestrips down with 320 grit wet n dry first .Then clean the sidestrips , degrease them with some panel wipe or similar .
Next spray the sidestrips with plastic primer . Let it dry and rub them down with some 1500 grit wet n dry .When you happy that its nice n smooth ...
Imo yes , they are very good . I ordered some from mytyres this week £151 with 3% cliosport discount .Took 2 days to arrive . Fitted locally for a fiver a tyre . Had some silly quotes of £120 a tyre fitted :eek:
^^^ Thats what i use all the time .AG bumper care is good stuff , but WD40 is better imo . Give it a try .Its got alot more uses than just a water dispersant . Good for removing adhesive labels as well.

Spray some WD40 on a cloth and rub into the plastic it'll return back to black . None of the trim restorers actually clean old wax off , they just mask the white bits .
Sounds like a lot of hard work just for the 182 look .Just got for the k-tec exhaust like you say . It'll probably affect your chances of selling the car as well imo .
