Had to give mine a clean sunday as someone had taken it upon themselves to write my numberplate in the dirt while i was in B&Q's! lol

Heat sheilding and cold air feed being sorted soon. Where's andy at GDI based? Might have my battery relocated! :) Im trying to sort some powerflex hangers out so hopefully the exhaust will sit higher. I dont want to shorten the exhuast because i want to sell it soon. And i dont want to cut...

Next on the list is the carbon fibre bonnet here ready to be fitted and it desperately needs lowering.

Yeah its from k-tec, oh the exhuast is HUGE! lol :D

Yeah its hanging to low, once i get hold of some powerflex hangers and change them over should sit closer to the bumper as the ones on there are well stretched now. I know its not everyone's cup of tea but i like the in your face, have a bit of that style of it! lol. :) Looks good when you look...

Some pics of mods ive done over the last 2-3 weeks. Had my exhaust fitted on weekend but was rattling so had afternoon off work had it sorted out then of course i had to go for a drive to test it out, so took some pics. Magnex cat back 6x4 oval Green induction kit carbon fibre front...

Ive just bought and fitted a k-tec carbon splitter. Really smartens up the front end looks a lot lower from the front too. Reasonably easy to line up and fit and pretty secure once on.

cheers! Ill post pics up when its fitted! Any pics of yours middo?

Great your not inspiring me with much confidence here! lol

I didnt realise but its actually from k-tec itself. Didnt say anything in the advert but when i payed for it the payment went to k-tec!?

Did they charge much?

Damn. Really didnt think it would be that bad. Whats the problem with it then? Is it really worth paying someone to fit it?

Yep

Just bought a carbon bonnet to match my carbon splitter, should look sweet on my black car! :) Um...How the hell do i fit it?

Tell me about it!! :)

If you declare it which there's no need to you'd be paying the same extra on your policy as for an induction kit so if your going to declare it you might as well buy a IK.

The new car smell is the glue's etc I read in a magazine that its actually quite bad for you as its toxic fumes given off by the glue's and that.

The extra im paying is for induction kit, exhuast and front splitter.

Im with elephant 23, 0 no claims (first year as main driver), 3 points and im paying £1250 without mods, £1431 with mods. So no claims makes a hell of a difference. I found most companies wouldnt insure untill i was 25.

I was told by the police that my plates were like this! He proceeded to flash his headlights at the rear of my car saying look, but i could still read them so perhaps he needed his eyes testing! These flash back plates or whatever they called are not illegal though? At the end of the day...

Whats the proper way to store a chamois? Do i need to wash my meguiars water magnet? How often and how? I use meguiars ultimate wipe for waxing should i wash it after every use and how? Ive got a clay bar and spray to use does my car need to be dry after washing to use it, and do i...

Loving the recaro's! Just rip the back seats out! And silvervisions are very subtle but make a hell of a difference, really smarten up the front. Ive just fitted them on the front, noticed the difference straight away but its not something you look for just nice and subtle. Gunna get some for...

The water magnet doesn't seem very soft though?

Ive actually had that photo of your car on my phone for ages asking people's opinions! :) A lot of people told me to have one cut into my bumper, but ive always liked the 6x4 oval so decided to buy it and see what it looks like. If i dont like it i can always sell it and get a stealth system...

Which do you use? Which is best/safer? Ive got meguiars gold class chamois and meguiars water magnet. I bought the chamois today cos everyone i spoke to kept telling me to use a chamois but then ive just read lots of stuff on the net saying not to use one!
