What did you and your MK2 do today?

[robthebubble]

Iv been using AG extra gloss protectant. Its not a wax but a last stage easy on and easy off. Also tried AG ultra deep gloss which is a nightmare to use (probably putting too much on!)

I really want to try some HD wax its 30 on ebay

Swissvax, its great stuff!!!....smells that good you want to eat it!....but I wouldn't recommend it as its rather expensive!

I think it might be coming up to that time of year when halfords do the 3 for 2 offer on all car detailing/cleaning products...

Well,

After sourcing 2 odd wing mirrors off eBay for £30 to wrap in carbon fibre, I went vack on eBay and saw a new unused pair of the matt silver FR wing mirror covers. So bought them today as well £25 delivered

So will now have 3 choices, stock red, carbon wrapped or FR

Ive not tried to remove my original covers yet, but it cant be that hard.
I will look at the clips on the ones I get delivered and see how they clip in. I reckon it'll be a couple if small flat blade screwdrivers to pry them off with a bit of pressure.

Will report back once I get them

Went for this today (black surround chrome badge)

From black badge chrome surround.

The experience of vinyl wrapping is a strange one indeed

Looks much better Jay!

Took off my cupspoiler front lip and installed the Triple R one.. great looking product, I prefer it over the cupspoiler.

On the facelift models you adjust the mirror so it's facing down as much as possible and try and get you fingers behind at the top and pull firm but gently the glass and the housing should come out together. Be careful if there heated because there should be two little wires which will be connected.

Then from the inside unclip the cover, looks pretty easy to do.

Waiting for Vauxhall to find me a Nurburgring VXR , would super love a Cupra R but out of my budget

You sure it doesn't say track grey? Although I've seen logs books that are wrong before

 

[lc_allan]

I think his is Zenith. Dont think Track grey was an option until about 2009. Google image search Zenith Leon.

I love the sound of the burg with the Remus exhaust. Just been nice to it let it warm up and cool down and take extra care with the gearbox. M32 gearboxes are made of chocolate.
