  1. Hi Dan, that's a nice looking mb - like the mods that you've done... Looks classy Nice one on getting a hold of the big fog lights
  2. Had one at the beginning of the year when it went for that fateful MOT. Have had some ITR cams in my bedroom for a year or so though....
  3. No, not yet but it doesn't look good. Think a private reg with UBR might be the best I can get. Noticed that B18 UBR is free...
  4. Some pics from today's visit. Nearly time.... Skirts, mud flaps, and wheel arch liners.
  5. Waiting for fittings for the wheel arch liner and mud flaps, a glitch with the intermittent wipers not returning properly, and windscreen being resealed (not going to bother with swapping it now).
  6. I've got 17s on my deck and love how they look /feel, but I think that you'll have issues at the front with how low you are... Might get away with it though, but there's a chance that there'll be arch rub. Think that 16s are probably the best compromise for looks / weight / feel.
  7. Hello mate, nice to see you and your new deck - don't see many red ones anymore (don't see many any ones anymore....). Like what you've done so far - those headlights look like a really tidy job!
  8. Might not be able to keep the TUBR reg. Looks like the rules have been changed to a points based system, with mandatory points related to either using the original or brand new chassis. Will submit the application anyway.
  9. That's one of the last bits. Panels are in getting painted, and ball joints... Hopefully the screens have been swapped by now as well.

    Nice pic. I'd love to be there right now
  11. Yeah, that's what the garage said. Apparently the guy didn't really notice with the first one, but the second one went straight in and they said there was a bit of play and were worried they could come out, especially without the clip that the Tegiwa ones had. Thing is, after tubs eating ball joints for fun, I'm sure that the the last ones that went in were moog and they lasted ages.
  12. Update on the ball joint saga... The new moog ones are a few mm too small apparently and don't fit snuggly in the hole. Some blue print ones on the way so hopefully they will be okay.
  13. Bumper looks tip top. Lines are nice and clean. Nice big sections of rubber on those tyres
