Car looks great, the grills look sweet. Keep up the good work!

BEST COLOUR!! :D

Cheers mate.

I do love the colour and it comes up really nice after a good wash. It wasnt my first choice but opted for it due to the great spec list that came with it and how loved it had been by its previous owner. Also the first LCR I fell in love with on here was Dolby's and thats silver. I'm just trying to do a few small things to help it stand out. Its desperate for an alloy wheel refurb. later in the year I think I'll get them done high power silver as they look awesome on Dolby's, maybes lowered with spacers.

Badger 5 3" TIP has been order today then its time to do some work on the bay. :D

Yeah same as me, silver wasn't my first choice either but as soon as I seen it I loved it! I always get complements after I clean it everyone loves the silver :).

Fair play mate your car is def coming on very well. The wheel refurb is going to look great [B)], and the badger 5 tip was a great choice as well. I ended up buying t0m's forge tip which is great but i think in the future i will have to upgrade as everyone loves the badger 5 tip. I haven't looked at Dolbys yet might go have a gander on his readers ride.

I'll def be sure to keep my eye on your thread mate ;)

Jamspeed, I love it :D!

Good call on the 3" TIP and waiting, the hole you make will be completely custom as we all have our filters located slightly differently depending on how much we cut the TIP hose(s).

:D It's the future. Cant wait to get it all sorted and on the car! I hate waiting around for parcels!

I love your signature 'Ovni Yellow LCR by JamSpeed'

You need to get some stickers sorted!

I'll be keeping my eye on this, I don't want the JamSpeed quality to dip, you've got my name to upkeep :p.

I'm actually going to get a sticker made up to put on the shield, just for the hell of it. Depending on price then I'll send out a few to anyone who's followed my guide.

LOL... watch out for copyright! :p

Dont worry mate, there wont be any crap going on my motor :D. If you do sort some stickers out I'm more then happy to cover the price and postage.

I got the Map pipe as I was already replacing the rest of the OEM IC system. This is the OEM pipe:

probably aids airflow but gains will more then likely be unnoticeable.

Thats +5g/s over the Forge TIP and I've still not sorted the cold air feeds from the fog lights:funk:

The templates sorted for the heatshield now, just waiting on the metal sheet to turn up. I wont be posting pictures untill complete.
