never went back for the bits im a bit squeemish lol didnt fancy seeing 2 dead rabbits haha
tbh i was surprized it didnt take the bottom of the bumper and grille out too!
lol i know, mates trading his 172 in and i told him last week id buy his splitter for £50 and sell it on to make a bit of cash since he wasnt bothered about removing it! so its not too bad although ive been wanting a carbon fibre one for a while but skint atm so standard 1 will do lol
yeah lol the 10 brothers were up there inc my dad, then all the mates appeared, built a little pool at the side of the water with about 5 cases of beer in it
its quick that, was pulling on me very slightly and im running around 190bhp lol he had 3 guys in the car too!! handled spot on too looks like its on coilovers.
anyway mate welcome!
yep the inlet tract is too long with the relocation pipe fitted to causes a loss in torque and power, plus the fact it runs right behind the radiator doesnt really help ;)
standard airbox modified to flow a bit more air, decent pannel filter, larger cold air feed is the best method i found...
one thing i noticed too when my girlfriend had a shot of my 172 is that if you stall the lights go off (if their on auto), wonder how long it is before someone stalls at a dark junction and someone comes round the corner and smashes into them because their lights are off!
you get what you pay for but £1600 a bit expensive!
i payed over £500 for rear quarter, drivers door, bump strip smoothed down and painted (got 1 from the scrappies off a dynamique because mine got hit by a brick and the car got keyed)
you got 0ncb or a claim mate? surely shouldnt be anywhere near £3200 for you?!
im only £1100 at the same age (19) with 1yrs ncb, fully comp with admiral
yeah i know what you mean, yours looks spot on though with the badges and silver calipers
re doing my calipers tomorrow, went off the yellow, might go for silver to be boring :p
let me see your different colours guys, mine is an iceberg silver so looking for a few different pics, i think anthracite would be cool but pics never seem to do it justice any decent pictures off iceberg on anthracite
anyone done any mental colour combo's like green or orange?! lol
cheers
ive got the k-tec recessed with decat and 182 manifold, sounds awesome when going for it, real nice sporty tone.
when croozing at 70mph on the motorway you dont hear it though! sounds standard
