Using the crappy buses today to get to work and leaving her parked at home. Not risking it again

Its raining here in Chichester. I only need one sunny day and I'm good to wash.

so i secured / screwed the diffuser to the new one today. im soooo confused the pictures make them look totally different colour but i dont think its that far off to the eye.

this one in natural light no flash on camera

 

[nerayan]

Will it fit the facelift fr mate?

 

[Masterkm]

Can the screw holes be seen or are they hidden? Did it come with screws?

 

[Smee]

Yes comes woth screws. You screw from the back through the standard part in to the diffuser.

I'll be honest. I dont think the fit is that great. Its bigger than the standard part. Would like to see the gaps it makes.

Looking at fitting. The standard part looks easier to fit from the bottom up. Get those 2 c clips in and then the rest are push in jobs.

 

[Masterkm]

You have a pic of those gaps? Personal preference then as in putting it back as I start from the top.

@Nerayan they do fit the FL models too as they share the same diffuser

 

[Smee]

Will do when its fitted

Took my car to the dealer I got it from 2 weeks ago to have a piece of passenger foot well trim put back in place.
While I was there talked to them about having the DSG service as the car is now at 38.5k miles. I asked at the time of purchase about servicing for the DSG and the junior guy said it had no separate service, which i now know to be incorrect. I mentioned this to the service guy today and they are going to do the DSG service free of charge next Saturday.

Installed my Eibach Pro Street S coilovers, huge step forward in ride comfort compared to the H&R sport springs, handling is great as well, had to roll the fenders in order for the ET35 rims to stop rubbing. overall happy with the new set-up

 

[tonto]

fitted a set of Apex springs . . . again! some reason, this time around it took 3 odd hours rather than an hour and half last time :S things just decided to get more difficult as i went on! Bloody things!

Was on the way out for a meal with the wife and some friends, got a mile or so down the road, heard a funny squealing noise (similar to the fan belt noise) then the car started to lose power and eventually it died.
Under the bonnet there was coolant running down the left hand side, I could hear it bubbling away and steam was coming out of the grill.
Car won't start, RAC guy seems to think the head gasket has gone.!


It's been towed to the garage and I'll have to phone them on Monday. Anyone any ideas on what damage will have been done and likely cost?

 

[tonto]

Thinking about not re insuring it at the end of the month and getting myself another bike for a few months.
im insured on the other halfs car if i really need one, but selling the R6 just before christmas, its killing me nt having 2 wheels to be out on!
