Badger5. I only skimmed through that link but you want a remap don't you? If so, Bill owns badger5, he's highly respected and he's located just inside Stonehouse from our End.

Bill at badger 5! He's remapping my blue one and seeing if he can get more than 239bhp out my yellow one. He's also fitting a dynatwist open cone filter to both cars!
We should meet up that day!

Thanks Josh, AK and Lee. Now you say badger5 I have read about them, if I go throw with it I'll be sure to use him as if you guys say his reputation is that good its good enough for me :)

About your wheels AK, they look smart, nicer than I imagined tbh, exactly the look I want and would look great on mine as its black. How much did it cost to get them done and where? No need for another pic as I always use mobile and can zoom

Gingerbreadman I take it you know Gloucester quite well as you live there? On Bristol road there is a place called ultimate valeting and they have given me a really good quote on full front end respray, wheel refurb a few touch ups and a full machine polish. I've used them before, and for what I was charged for 2x bumpers and a wing they did a really good job. I think the boss' name is Jamie. It's opposite the old Hempsted bridge if you pop down, they do literally everything body work wise too.

Thanks Josh I'll be sure to check them out. http://www.ultimatepaintandchiprepairs.co.uk these guys?

AK looks like you did a good job on yours, I know if in tried to do my own I guarantee I'd end up getting paint on the tyre lol I hope your Porsche ones come out looking sweet

Also I'm happy for you guys to call me Steve, my proper name. Gingerbread Man is my name over on XDA forums if any of you guys go on there, I couldn't think what else to choose when I registered here.
