I had my PB done a few years ago at £600 for front bumper, bonnet, wings, blend down the sides and inside the filler cap after I sorted the rust and that was for a decent job

I should hope so I have explained that it is a 'special colour and he did pick up on it when I first showed it to him
Will be making sure that he knows.
Yeh that's for everything and also a top coat in the filler cap as I'm going to be cleaning out the rust and prep it all before I get this...
How much would you expect to pay for a front end respray?
I've got paint peel on my drivers wing and also want the front end cleaned up as it's covered in chips and scratches
I've been quoted £600 by a painter I've have used before for wheels and previous cars but never had this much work...
I've noticed my exhaust mount is starting to deteriorate and drop the exhaust on one side
It uses a non standard mount on the driver side of the exhaust
Does anyone know where I can get a new one
Here is a picture for reference
Thanks Robbie

Yeh that's right
This picture is a standard one and the lug that's been chopped is the bottom one
Think the hole was repositioned something like 25 mm closer to the centre of the hub then chopped the lug off to suit
Haha thanks hasn't been updated too much recently though

No more updates as I have a new car now. The link is in the above post.
I machined one of the brake carrier holes closer to the centre of the hub then made a bracket to suit.
Thought I'd rather machine a cheap hub then an expensive calliper and doing this required no machineing to the...
Has been awhile since I last updated due to holidays and moving out but recently been doing a few fits too the car
I did end up fitting the rear coilovers and induction kit
I also wanted to fit my momo steering wheel that I had in my 172 but due to the 182 having cruise control I was unsure...
Sorry for a late reply haven't been on this thread for awhile
Yes it's on a private plate now and yeh that's the way I go to work
Are you heading into reading ? Will keep an eye out

Ah good thanks for the help will give it a go.
And I know it will never be a perfect match but shouldn't be too noticeable for them small bits.

Do you know if they have to have a sample of what your paint is to make sure it's a match ? Or can you order it though your paint code?
As I live in reading so it's too far away :L

The car has been off the road since march last year, I bought a petrol blue 182 which I have transferred all the stuff too like coilovers, brakes etc

Yeh it was mainly cost as its a fraction of the cost to the rotrex and the maintaining costs are also a lot cheaper.
And if you don't mind and have the time I'm definitely up for seeing what its like thanks let me know when it's possible to go out.

That's fair enough I'll look into it thanks
Ok thanks for the help
Yeh I know was never expecting the same gains as the rotrex
Thanks for the advice

the electronic clutch wouldn't be a problem as I'll just make a fixed pulley replacement to the size I need it
Would adding a thicker head gasket like the Megane be an alternative or will that not be enough ?
Thanks for the help
Thanks have you got any links or pictures of stuff you have...

1) Firstly would a m62 supercharger work on the F4R ? Have seen eaton superchargers on lots of other cars and the m62 comes off a...
