Cars looking good, what have you done with the fogs as they have a good second hand value.

Whats next?

harty190486 · May 4, 2009

Cheers mate, the fogs have both been cracked so dont know if they would be worth anything now

Well would like to get it on coilovers if any one recomends a set would be nice to know, Also blueflame turbo back then stage 2

but all this will have to be after holiday now mate

Thanks mate, i bought the covers from the dealers i think they were about 40 quid then tinted them myself with tint spray for a 10er did it after seeing someones on the forum just finish the front end of nice

Likewise to above, nice car & love the engine bay. Where did you get the number plate done & all be it spaced correctly are there any potential issues with that style lettering legally? Prob sounds silly to ask but with 14 points on my licence I daren't take any chances on getting :banned:

I have to say that jetex cone looks huge, ever thought about getting a heatshield for it?
Thats if the cone would fit inside it :cartman:

Just failed my MOT for not having enough white on the outside of my plate. Letter spacing is legal its just I've hack sawed the ends off the plate, so they are clamping down big time.

Thanks for the comment mate,I think they are legal had them for 2 months now and had no problems so far but don know if it would be worth loosing your licence over

i got the plates of ebay mate just go on the site and type in GERMAN Euro Pressed Metal number plates were about 23 quid inc postage mate

Well the filter is the exact one jabba sell in there kit the kit is 250 quid but got the cone from jetex for 45 quid

then spoke to jabba about gettin just the heat shield and they wanted 150 quid just for a piece of matal

so unless i can get one made then wont be gettin one mate but filter is good any way seems like abit more throtle response and the noise is amazing
