Wood blocks/planks on the curb, to stop scraping, you should see the mountain to get in/out my apartments, then you wouldn't worry ;)

Don't worry, the black bonnet has not been kept, but I now have a "pikey" bonnet bra ;), fogs are in and it should be dropped this week if I can get the top mounts off!!!

:thumbup:

I have to say, I'm impressed mate, looks very smart ;) and I like the colour choice for the rims to, a bit different :D

Cheers Andy :thumbup:

Always had the idea in my head for orange and red...finally had the balls to do it :cartman:


Ooh very nice young sir ;)... Looked an awesome turn out!... Where's the dink gone from the rear panel? :p you did a good job?

It was, you missed out!!! :p

It's still there dude, check the first pic :(


Took my car to my tyre fitter, he used his magical skills (tools) and loosened the top mounts :D

i don't like them, and they damage paintwork (from the rubbing from driving)
its the reason most people keep them on all the time now, as it has f*cked their paintwork on their bonnet :)

Yeah I know of that place but is there no place cheaper ? Lol
I quite like the look of them and I don't really need to worry about paintwork being ruined as it already is. Stone chips all over the front, a few deep scratches and then the marks from when I took the stripes off :(

Think it looks mint mate :) love it

Thanks Matt :D

unless someone is selling a used one, i think that is the only place
i don't really like them, but everyone to their own (and i'm the same, my front end ain't the best, so i don't understand why to use one, as it is to protect against stone chips) lol

Time for an update, and will go on for 2-3 posts because I'm a picture ***** :p
Had an OCD attack, forcing me to spend the whole weekend in my garage showing my love to Isabella. I vinyled the door mirrors as the lacquer was cracking;
Before on the left, After on the right:

Then I fitted the front lowering springs which I got off Vince :), pictures will follow.
This is the first thing that happened when reversing out of the garage because of the springs lol:

Then washed the car, and then polished using a polishing compound I was given by a friend a while ago, awesome stuff, though would have been better if I had a machine buffer for an even finish. Then waxed.
Before:

After:

Applied a few coats of Poorboys wheel sealent on the wheels:

I then cleaned all the nooks and crannies, hoovered and cleaned the interior, polished the dash and doorcards etc. I don't think I've ever had the car so clean lol.
