    I used my mates DAS6 a couple of times before i bought one. I haven't used mine for a year, i wanted to do it before the winter but after moving house and not having a garage now i didn't get around to it Make sure you keep aside a day, as you don't want to cut corners.
  2. Its all in the preparation mate Take your time and read some guides. I agree that the price of bodyshops are getting higher, and most of the time work getting poorer!
  3. I was thinking it looks more like a Golf GTi with the red grille.
  4. Are you going to paint the sills to match the splitter mate?
  5. It was late and i had to fill my mates van tyre. Once i done that i then thought i might as well do mine as they have a compressor. I'm not sure really it was late and i was tired, but i think i may have bent the inner part of the valve. I don't under stand what you mean?
  6. Is it not showing because there wasn't a on-line system until 2006?
  7. Thanks for all the comments I went to re wrap the other fog surround this week. After taking all the old wrap off (took ages due to the laquer). I then wrapped it again, next was to start on the laquer..... Forgot to bring it with me So it looks like due to the weather this weekend i will have to paint them in the spare room lol. I did spend the time fitting my new mats properly, removing the damaged fog to see if i could salvage any bits from it or the bracket. Then i broke the valve in my tyre at 12am, luckily my mate was there and fitted another one as neither of us could be f**ked to change the tyre lol
  8. Much better mate, it looks less chavvy now
  9. I would say thats about right. Here is mine with my Speedlines on;
  10. Having actually used it last night its so much easier to reach up and switch on when you are driving. Also as i have a bright main light and the two map reading ones you get the best of both worlds B-) Scratching the paint off under the light for the earth was a pain as there were more layers than i thought. So out came mr trusty dremel lol
  11. I forgot the other day that i booked this afternoon off. So i managed to get the interior light all working. I even found some LEDs in the glovebox for the map reading lights which was perfect timing! All three lights on... Just the map reading lights on... Now i can get back on with my fogs, as the film arrived today as well. Need to figure out brackets as i had to cut one set off to open them up. Im also going to try and re wrap and clear coat the other cover again tonight too.
  12. I have a Clifford Blue LED as i know how bright they are as i had one before. I fitted it just behind the gearstick on that bit of trim, it lights up the sunstrip if you look at it from the front at night
  13. There is an accord just down from my house and every time i walk past i look and think they would fit better and probably easier to get hold of.
  14. I would imagine it would spin on way or another if you rotated the other wheel.
  15. I have had mine replaced by a bodyshop a few years ago. So they are out there if you look in the right places.
  16. Cheers matey! Erm yeh first started when i was about 18 (i was bloody useless ) so had a couple of years practice on a few of my previous projects and a couple of my mates have retro cars, so on them aswell. Cool so you dont do it as a job then...
  17. Fair play for having ago mate, have you every done anything like that before?
  18. I haven't had the time recently mate. I keep taking on jobs and not finishing the ones before I want to fit them when i fit the fogs, but im still waiting on the film for the lense. Then i have to make a bracket for one of them, also i cant decide what type of bulbs to go in there. I want LED really but ones that are bright enough to use, without being too big that they don't fit into the fog.
  19. Wheels look so much better Are you going to get some ray's stickers, to make them look like reps?
  20. Get some of the Cree LED's as sidelights, so far they are the best i have had!
  21. Looking forward to seeing the accord mate. Also what plans for part do you have or is it a secret?
