Re: 2118's center caps (kind of) Just ordered some R.S. decals in red and silver off Ady@n2grafix and ill be doing the red decal on top with a silver shadow. The raised center bit on the cap is 25mm so Ady will do some to fit :) Does anybody know a colour match or very similar for anthracite...

Yours is :) I was eve thinking on the way home that I actually like the dash! No worries Dave, anytime :) Did Stanley like the planes, trains and automobiles?

Nice little meet. Nice to meet you today Scott, however my need for a silver ph1 just got stronger :(

Re: 2118's center caps (kind of) I thought about a decal but they might be too small for it?

Re: 2118's center caps (kind of) Also does anybody know what colour the wheels are or a very similar colour match. As you can see the techno grey is slightly darker.

Re: 2118's center caps (kind of) How about swirly chipped paint with the odd scratch that needs painting and polishing? That's closer! Lol No probs, Mick. My wheels are et43 but I'm running dan@mad 5mm spacers all round. I agree. Even though my nuts had been painted black I still wanted...

Re: 2118's center caps (kind of) Not sure yet. They were wearing off more when I last cleaned them so it did look rather odd. 2500 grit and t-cut and there all ok. Will run without them for a while then see. Might get red decals? For people that are interested this is the part number...

Re: 2118's center caps (kind of) Thanks all. I know they can be a bit hit and miss on here as the majority like them without but they don't look bad imo. Not to sure about show car though bobs! Oh a did eventually wipe off the decals fletch :o You on about the caps? Ill get a pic if so.

Ordered these a few days ago. Had some left over Nissan techno grey so gave them a quick spray. Not a colour match but better than black. Untitled by Dr-Jekyll, on Flickr Untitled by Dr-Jekyll, on Flickr Untitled by Dr-Jekyll, on Flickr Untitled by Dr-Jekyll, on Flickr Untitled by...

Nice updates Tom :) bullets look really good as does the wrapping.

Ill pop down for a fry up :)

Haha, completely missed that post :o ​

I'm confused, is it this Sunday one of them?

OMG! Just awesome! There's just something about fords....

To true dan! Lol

Only the ones above Ian. I'm on a shift change tomorrow as we're out to a suit and dress do tomorrow eve. Providing I don't have to much to drink ill be doing some tinkering on the bg on Sunday so ill take more pics then. Its not a major change, just a subtle widening.

Each to there own mate. I think if I was to do it again then I wouldn't have so much carbon, but I got carried away! :o All I did today was go over the headlights with 2000 then 2500 grit. Needs a full going over. There's a 3m kit that's rather popular on here and cost around £20. Certainly...

Also had a go at fitting the headlight film. Took the headlights off and indoors, got all prepped up, then spent about 30mins trying to do one headlight and then gave up. I guess you don't know unless you try! Lol

Fitted the spacers today. Took loads of pics as clarkey-ph1 wanted to see the studs before and after. Untitled by Dr-Jekyll, on Flickr Front hub no spacer Untitled by Dr-Jekyll, on Flickr Rear hub no spacer Untitled by Dr-Jekyll, on Flickr During Untitled by Dr-Jekyll, on Flickr...

Cups only came in racing blue and inferno on 182s. You've probably got a 182 ff. Half leather, front splitter and larger rear spoiler, climate control, xenons and 60mm hub bolt spacing.

Thanks brad :) Looked at my blanks today as they had set and the lower corner is not completely flush, so I'm going to going to try and smear a little silicone in the gap and g-clamp them. Hopefully that will hold it flush. Seeing them on the car, im pleased with the finish of them though. I...

Thanks Jamie, i'll probably attack them Sunday if the weather holds out. They do come up for sale dan so keep an eye out as they go super quick. Try and make sure the clips/threads are intact as it pulls the blanks in towards the bumper for a better fit than just tiger sealing them on. Thanks...

Ollie you should have a look at gtechniq c4. It's a great trim restorer and saves sprying everything. Also you'll need to get a puller on the rear wiper to remove the blank. Had to do this on mine (well dan@519 did) as my rear wiper was seized onto the thread.

Re: CS Saturday 13 Convoy (Essex/South East) Gonna be a good convoy looking at the list above. Still got another month to get more names on too. Got to break the 50 barrier.

Brad, Rob is sweet as a (hub) nut. (See what i did there? ;)) He'll have all the tools and sort you out, don't worry. He'll be cheaper than taking it to a garage and knows he's clios. He will return call/text/pm/reply on here, probably early hours of the morn :)

Ah ok, ill do the same then. Mine need a going over with some wet n dry again as there starting to look murky again on the edges. Is it a simple case of bumper off, 2/3 bolts holding the actual headlight in place and un-clipping the bulbs? I've never taken off the headlights before.

I did. Went down my local spray shop and got a rattle can of bg. They do a really good colour match. Gave it a few good coats of paint and lacquer to make it look oem. Looks really good I think.

Good to hear Kyle :)
