That'd be perfect. I'll try find some sizes for you! Thanks!

Anyone happen to know the oem anthracite paintcode? Im wanting to do centre caps and bullets

Believe so, or they hook just above the rear quarter windows

Got the new 2118s on this evening. Made the car look a lot fresher as they're slightly lighter than the ones that came off. Need to paint my centre caps next :)

Oh hai. Yeah that is my car. I'm running 2118s, with b14s and 20mm front spacers/10mm rear hub spacers. Stud and nut kit all round. Thanks for the kind words ?

Pulled up next to me, car looked ace! Anyone on here?

What are these made out of? The rubber on the new balljoints for my spitfire have split already from zero use, would you consider making and selling some or are they available to buy elsewhere?

You can get these from kwikfit fitted for £239.

Cheers Steve! I think the same about your 172... ;) ? (I know it's a 182 really) Be even better when I have my new 2118s on. Visited my mum and dad this weekend so had no chance to get them on

@bloke is the expert with these Or give Nick at PMS a ring, he's actually really helpful

Nothing too exciting, just washed the car. I removed the spoiler and refitted it with some Tigerseal under the edges as well as using the Rubnuts. Didn't want to risk it before getting chance to see Carl as I'll be doing a fair few motorway miles in the meantime. 20180623_153600 by Louis...

Looks lovely! How's the rust? Needs the bonnet sticker removing too ;)

He wakes up to a pile of rust each morning so has to keep buying more

Think it's more the word restoration over project but the word has different meanings to different people.

Handbags ?

Just took a photo of the car in the last bush it crashed into

I had thought about using rivnuts but didn't want to risk cracking any of the fibreglass when it came to the final squeeze. I'll whip it off this weekend and see what access I have, IIRC It's none without cutting. Could have a look when I'm next over Carl if you didn't mind!

£3K for some turinis? You were had.

Ideally I've make a metal plate to fit behind with 2 nuts welded on to spread the load but don't want to start cutting it up to get access. I'll remove it this weekend and put a small amount of sealant around near the rubnuts. Last thing I want is it flying off but I wanted to be able to...

It actually feels really secure and the original self tappers aren't any bigger than m4. I had thought about putting a touch of tigerseal on the rubnuts before tightening the bolts I did some reading and the rubnuts seemed to he recommended by a few sites. Thing is I want to avoid bonding...

That's factory mate, I sprayed it underneath where it can't be seen. Thank you though, this is identical to genuine just cheaper and lighter!

Sorry, I meant drivers side ?

Okay, I'd recheck all the fuses in your drivers* side fusebox. A quick google says it could be ignition live fuse, unsure on what # that is though.

What car? I just presumed mk2 clio

Check all the passenger side fuses. 100% Sounds like a fuse. Bet your cigarette lighter isn't working either.

As self tappers were not going to be the way forward into securing the spoiler and it was too late to bond any nuts on the backside of the spoiler (No access) I bought some Rubnuts. These are essentially rivnuts that just push in and secure when tightened by flexing and trapping the fibreglass...

I went over it with an orange pad yesterday and some medium cut menzerna compound and it didn't seem to do anything. Maybe put more marks into it if anything.... think it's not fully hardened? I'll wait a week then try again. Don't want to cause damage that can't be machined out

Cheers all! Yeah, does look good when clean! Just never stays that way for long. Back is filthy again from all this pollen. On the trophy front, how long can I wait before machine polishing? I'm guessing it could do with a wet-sand too? It has quite a lot of swirls in it already, but I know he...

I'm driving around like this for a while because lazy. I've heard good things about the gtechniq too, I'll take a look. Paintwork definitely is not mint but it's okay for 129k
