First ever polish (by me anyway!)

[@rt]

Gave my rep its first ever polish on saturday in preperation for the midlands breakfast meet sunday! Not into detailing or anything like that, so for a first attempt I don't think it turned out too bad! Here are some pics:

Currently shitting it as I went through some of them horrible average speed cameras on the m5 sunday, wonderd why the car following me was so far behind, had a look around, and it was a 50! (couldn't see any roadworks!!!) so I slowed right down but I think it was too little too late , so my average speed was probably more like 60... going to be a horrible wait over the next 14 days to see if anything comes through in the post! Damn early start, was still half asleep

lookin good bud.

 

[richy22]

Thats Ady182 off here... I got one but in yellow but it looks huuggeee (not the one thats on my car now)

 

[Ali]

Like it. The tow stickers look s**t. Don't understand why people have them...Fair enough on a track car...

 

[Curley]

If you get them you need to be extra careful for a year and a half.. i had 3 points before i even got my car license.

Got to 2 years the other day so was buzzin, the next day i got a letter saying i got caught speeding 5 days before :nono:

The tow sticker is fashion over function right

ps drop a 2 litre lump in it

 

[I Solly I]

what you done to the rear drums painted um like a metalic silver? look really good

 

[@rt]

Yeah I would be! don't think I'd go above 25! lol does having points effect insurance much?

That's s**te that is mate! gutted for you! What are you going to do now then? Can you re-take the tests straight away or do they make you wait?

Yeah defo fashion over function! this car has never, and will never be on a track, lol, all about the looks, just enhances the front end abit IMO

PS. would love the 2.0 lump! maybe I'll save untill my probation is over then do it when I can enjoy it! It will be the only cyclone blue 172 then haha!

[Russy B]

Good rep, just a few things to do to fnish, i'm sure you know wot they are though!!!

 

[Speedlover]

A lot of details gone into that car mate, Looks really goood!!

 

[scott1205]

cleaning - its an addiction, careful

its is yer i started once a fortnight

now its twice a week

hope ya get away with the speeding mate the basterds got me so i no what its like

33 in a 30 what a w**ker lol

 

[@rt]

Cheers!

I know yeah, has got a wash once a week since I got it, just with some turtle wax wash'n'wax stuff, but thought I'd treat it to some autoglym polish, will have to do it again in few weeks now! lol


And me mate! shitting it really dont want to get points! do speeding points effect insurance premiums much?

and 33 in a 30 is nothing, cant believe they got you for that! I've heard these average ones have a tollerence of +/- 10% so if you're doing 55 average you'll get away with it, think my average was more than that though

I know yeah it sucks! had a good search on the net and can't find anyone moaning that they've got caught there, only found one post on one forum with someone saying they've noticed they've put them up but dont think they are active (but that was in feb) so I'm worrying slightly less now,lol.

and cheers!

Looks good mate.

OZ Titans?

Cheers! looking forward to doing it again now! even if it did make my arm ache! lol
