Your right . The HC discs are cheaper than the Max . Your also right about that ebay link . They aren't for a 1*2 , they are only 238mm diameter not 280mm ;)
I almost used chipsaway , then sold the car so had no need so i can't comment on their work . The guy who looked at my car seemed to know what he was talking about , no bullshit etc ....
I see alot of people on here say you get some good guys and some not so good .
Now i'm wondering how...
The PE2's on the front of my 182 lasted 8k , moved the rears to the front ( like you always you should do ) new tyres on the back , then i got a total of 14k out of the fronts :)
They've always beaten any other quotes i've had . It even has a letter in with your renewal quote saying so .
I've been with em for nearly 10 years . Nothings comes close tbh .
I think you'll find it's the other way round . The materials won't cost that much , it'll be the labour costs that push the price up .
Give chipsaway a ring .
Of course you have to tell them . And yes your premium will go up , especially with any mods that increase power .
Like davo172 said . They always beat any other renewal quotes . I've been with em for years
Cups didn't come with an engine cover to save weight ;)
They come up for sale on here and ebay quite a bit . Normal aerosol spray and lacquer on the engine cover . No specialist paint needed .
The 2.0l 16v graphics off ebay ...
Follow Bonxys advice , Jerry can in the boot . Prove me wrong that one tank won't make it ;)
Thats all i ever get (280mpg) in my 182 and was the same in my 172 . Heavy right foot i guess lol .
It's an 11 gallon tank , but i think level gauge is the most unreliable guage ever .
I've had the tank almost empty , splashed 20 litres in and then done the trip computer test trick and its showed the level to have risen by alot more than 20 litres .
^^ Fill it up before you set off home and don't fill it again until after you've reached your home . See if you end up on the hard shoulder ringing the AA lol ;)

Look down the right hand side under power calculator .
Same here for me . Powerflow local to me in Burnley were spot on for quality of work . Other people on here have also said the same .
But as your not the original purchaser it's most likely you'll have to pay to have it repaired .
Thats exactly how it works . Your insurance compay pays out the book price and the gap insurance pays the rest making it up to the value of the car when you purchased it .
+1 . Why oh why would even consider buying that bumper ?? It's sh$gged and not worth the expense and hassle of repairing , thats if it could actually be repaired at all .
Go to a breakers and get one in good condition .
