Tunst's Racing Blue 182 Ownership Diary!

[Martin!]

Stripe it, you know it makes sense! I want black insert xenons for my RB too.

 

[jesus]

Haha how so?

'This will do'...

 

[Tunst]

'This will do'...

it gets all the stuff it needs.. Having a garage you tend to have various things laying around so why not use them :rasp:

 

[philip_james]

Looking good. I'm liking the silver turinis on RB. I have black F1s on mine but I think I'm going to go silver. It's the not so obvious, really obvious choice.

 

[Tunst]

I have a set of silver f1's i can throw on mine to give you an idea?

 

[welsh.Z.S.]

no stripes ... headlights all sorted now mate ?

 

[Tunst]

no stripes ... headlights all sorted now mate ?

Yeah everything sorted, the passenger light has a small amount of condensation in, its all coming apart again this week to fit new bulbs as one has gone slightly pink so il make sure its all sealed correctly etc before putting back together...

 

[Blacky950]

Very nice mate! Looks well on the turinis, will keep an eye out for you.

 

[Šįk]

Looking good Mark.. Needs lowered abit though

 

[Tunst]

Looking good Mark.. Needs lowered abit though

It is lowered :rasp: Only on eibach's so isnt a huge drop but will do for now

 

[Tunst]

So yeah... Xenons...

Went to fit a set if new bulbs today...

The insides of the headlight had been glued back together after they had been broken... I bought the lights as they were advertised with cracked cases (had actually been cut open i assume to glue the insides together...) so cur cases and broken inside.. Waste of £50 but live and learn...

So she currently sittin like so

Till I can be arsed to shell of for some brand new units...

 

[welsh.Z.S.]

christ man , guess we'v worked out y they were cut open lol i bought my new bare lights from rsc for 64pound each

 

[Tunst]

[Rob]

Oh dude. Not cool. Try find a 172 that's been rear ended surely?

I'm sort of glad though... start working on that f**king mini.

 

[Rob]

But really, can you not just tiger seal them up in a decent manner??? Get them working.

 

[Tunst]

Id have to pull the entire unit to bits rob, they had been cut open to repair previously i has to plastic weld it all.. Cutting them up and plasic welding them up again is just to much of a ball ache tbh..

Can get 2 brand new units for £150 delivered which aint bad..

As for the mini prepping it for MOT this saturday

 

[Kieran..]

£150 for both?! from where?

 

[Tunst]

RSC trader on here, they are bare mind.. Its just the lights, no ballasts etc
