And a friend was selling a k&n air filter for £10 and I just had to have it to replace my cheap unbranded one and it sounds a lot nice and I like the induction noise:) will hopefully be spraying my wheels this weekend and my 40mm springs are being fitted tomorrow

Weather was nice today so I chucked the car on the drive and started cleaning the wheels for the plasti dip,decided to clean the whole car as it was stupidly dirty. Anyway here's the plasti dipped wheels:)

Still have a bit of dip on the tyres from where I couldn't be bothered to get the little bits off. Will tackle it tomorrow! Love the look though and looks more stealth. Springs going on Monday because the guy messed the dates up

Looking nice and clean mate. I treated mine to a clay on Friday, first time using it and well impressed with the finish. Bloody hard work

Thanks mate:)
I bought 4 cans and I still have about half of one left,only did about 5 coats because after the first two you can spray it on quite thick.

Springs are fitted and it looks so much better and drives much better. Thought the ride would be more bumpy but it's so much comfier and handles really well. Here's some pictures anyway

And a photo for comparison. The looks have changed quite a bit in the space of 3 days!
