yeah it is matey, it grp with a carbon weave pattern on it! imo it looks really good and is a bargain at a tenner :D
after hearing about some of the incidents that people have had with chrome covers sparking out the battery, im gld i got a plastic one lol :D
I thought i would post up a mini timeline to show how my engine bay has changed in my 12months of 182 ownership :D
It may interest you, it may not:
Standard bay:
First Mod was an ebay carbon effect battery cover and a carbon fibre engine cover bought off cs :D:
I then added the strut...
Just a quick pick b4 i go to work
mark has finished my engine cover and brace, all i need to do i repaint the black part of the inlet plenham and jobs a good un :D
when i finish work i will post pictures showing the transformation of the engine bay from standard to this :D
ps. you...
why does the box have to be so big to accomodate 2 x 12inch subs?
im not slating it its just that out of all the installs ive seen at shows and in magazines, i have never seen such a huge sub box for just 2 small subs?
lots of grades of wet and dry matey!
use a bit of aluminium oxide paper to start with to get rid of the crap then work through the wet and dry grades: 120,200,400,600,800,1200,1500,2000!
then finish off with some autosol metal polish and or megs teck metal polish :D
*be careful not to press...
i would:
fully colourcode
lose the lexus lights and replace with standard
lower (springs are a nice cheap option)
lose the sunstrip and stickers
add a cup spoiler or even a dynamique spoiler if your short on cash (colour coded)
172/182 front grill (only bout 50 quid from dealers)
nice...
im not sure whether its the font but im not too sure about the look of it either
ive got a smaller plate on my racing blue, i really like the look of mine, i think it might be because mine is small but not too small if you get me :)
my plate compared to the full size one...
i was in ibiza last week to :D
the modded cars over there were shocking :rolleyes:
the air scoops/pods your on about were available on some dodgy bodykit over here but i cant remember which one. ive seen a lot of 1.2's with them on in the u.k, they can usually be found on ebay
