Your bay looks mint mate, good work
thanks Mike it's nearly there now, few more little bits to do and I think thats it for me. For now anyways lol. Just had a look at the new pictures of your car on your RR 
I love that candy White and those land rover wheels really finish it off. Fair play to you mate that's one sweet ride .
Cheers mate
TIP is awesome mate, I highly recommend it. Cant comment on price though as I dont know how much they used to be! Just get one!
its really upto you m8. with bushes you will get a bit more vibration in the cabin, with the ths dogbone mount its not a poly bush, there made form a better compound of rubber and you will get no vibrations in the cabin.
also nick, im refitting my intercooler on saturday hint hint

Really nice looking motor mate, loving all the shiny bits and attention to detail, I'm a bit crazy OCD on the cleaning too it's perfectly normal, can 't decide on my bay tho?? There seems to be a bit of a crew in Bristol now I've just moved here too be good to meet up some time... 4 car photo shoot
Update -loads of little bits and bobs
Right I've been a bit lazy updating my thread in the last couple of weeks so thought it was about time to sort it out. Nothing major just a bit if tidying up making things like new.
First off I did my key a few months ago, I replaced the whole case and badge:
Next I did a bit off polishing, got a bit carried away with the autosol, brilliant stuff I love it:
Painted my dipstick:
Replaced my boost hose jubilee clips because the hoses started slipping off. Bought the new ones from Forge and there so much better.
Sorted out my low wonkey looking exhaust:
Before
After, not 100% happy with it but it does look better:

Refurbed my steering wheel again, wasnt 100% happy with it the first time round:
Much happier with the wheel now, and I also scrubbed down all the stitching on the wheel,gator, and handbrake thanks to a bowl of hot water washing tablet and my misses toothbrush she wasn't happy but i was, it looks mint now.
Thats it for now I will have another update soon as I'm waiting for a package in the post.
And also I have had a promotion at work this week so that means more goodies for the car

.Yeah my OCD gets worse by the day i swear I'm terrible, never want to take the car out of my garage anymore so it doesn't get dirty lol.
Bristol crew looks like its going to start growing now. Yeah my mate has just bought one the other week and I meet up with Sam Bryant a lot he's a top bloke and has been an absolute life saver only problem is he makes me want to spend a lot of money on my car lol.
Def all have to meet up soon would be good to get all the Bristol LCR's together
.I'm in Warmley where abouts are you?
top work nick, your car is stunning and i love it when we go out in it
Thank you, thank you
cheers matey! You still need to take me out for a proper run in yours, last time didn't work out to well .Similar threads
