I think they was applying the wax by hand?! Makes sense tbf! But awsome non the less:p

Yeah they did, I'm going to try being more sensual and rubbing by hand :p

How long did the wrap take to arrive? I've had nothing yet and I ordered it from the same bloke you did a couple of weeks ago..

The sample sheets came in about a week, and that was over christmas time, ordered some more last week which came today. Get in touch with the seller, I'm sure he'll send some more out or refund but only after a certain amount of time.

Royal Mail have been really bad lately.

Not a big update, but I have bought myself some 5x100 to 5 x 112 adapters, but no wheels as of yet lol!

Oh and I may be buying a BMW 318i 2 door '89, really really really cheap. To keep off road and restore over time!!!!

Check you out?
Merc centrebore? Size? Did you get bolts

E30?

it just the standard fk adapters, 57.1 bore. didnt get the merc alloys, still looking. In no rush lol. At least I have the adapters and can look at most audi/merc/newer vw wheels without worrying about fitting lmao.

Tyres are next on the list :p

I think so, unsure, viewing it tomorrow. Hopefully will buy it and then keep it as an on going side project :)

It'll be going under my grandpops drive directly across the garage :)

lol, but was in really bad condition, rust everywhere, it was never driven anywhere so battery died, when it was driven, my grandparents struggled because of the slipping clutch and the non power steering lol!

Nah didn't get much, but the price he was given for that is about how much im paying for the beemer hopefully ;)

Update

Osram Nightbreakers fitted


The original headlight bulbs on the bora are really bad, so instead of revising for my Algorithmic Problem Solving exam in the morning, I decided to fit the Osram's!

VW definitely make it uber easy to fit these bulbs with loads of space! :blink:

and it doesn't help when the bulb holder/clip comes out of the headlight!

New (left) vs old (right)

DSCF2724.jpg

Pictures don't do the bulbs justice, are so much brighter and whiter!

Job done, will get a better picture when I'm out'n'about tomorrow :)


Oh and a random picture :) CF badge has started growing on me :)

E30 is the shape of the car, the one with oblong headlights is E36.. The angel eyes one is the the E46.. And so on.. I think the new one is E90 or something.. E30's look naughty when dropped on their arses :)

I can't text, well I can, but i've gone over by quite a lot on my allowance over this month :( lol

Lets just say they're the baby versions of what you have ;). I've put a bid in, if I get em for a decent price then its all good, if not I'll look for something else.

Find some for me! Pretty please!! :p lol

A few sets of rs6's that I may go for, we'll see...
