    Yeah I think they are mate. Been so long since I've looked at them though I'm not sure!! Can't even remember if they're 15's or 16's!!

    I have an image on how I want her to look. Subtle and clean. With minor bodywork enhancements.. But a sleeper look too, once I have the time to transfer over the engine goodies

    Will most definitely be de-chroming the exterior. Probably the only part I really don't like. Have a set of black multi spoke dc2 esq wheels that I need to get the tyres changed over on.

    So due to the crappy weather nothing done today. Although when the kiddies have gone to bed, I do intend on getting the induction pipe off my civic and rubbing it down ready for a paint. Currently chrome which isn't in keeping with how I want this engine bay to look. Thinking a minimal visual impact look. Won't be able to keep it lookin OEM but close. Don't want to go red or blue so will stick with the black and silver theme. Have a tin of satin black which will be used on the intake and it's a dark red cone which will probably be the only stand out colour. Everything else will be cleaned and where necessary re coated. Opinions?? Am I being old and boring?? Ha.

    Fair play mate. How did you find cutting it out?? And did you use a heat gun to size in the curves??
  6. Grant
    Nothing wrong with slow n steady mate

    Tim exactly the same mate. Drives me f***ing potty people coming too close to my car. Will be even worse now that've have a black one. And leaning in it!?! He'd of got a rude awakening!!
  11. Grant
    Not just the undesirables. Would keep everyone away from the car!! Ha.

    Think I might have to jump on this band wagon. They look great!
  13. Grant
    Either that or I might get round to finally building a car port

    Looks like a great list for the new year mate!! Although I bet that that is only the beginning !!
  15. Grant
    You disgust me Hahaha So was hoping to get out and put my short arm induction kit on this morning. Shock, it's poring with rain. Would it be ridiculous to get the gazebo out!?!
  16. Grant
    Great way to start the new year mate
  17. Grant
    Or the random foxes knawing on the trims! Ha

    Will get some more up tomorrow matey. Will make sure I get out there early enough so I don't loose the light! No didn't knock him down any .. Was as he described it and was cleaner than I thought it would be so was happy happy Cheers mate. She's certainly a clean one Well that's definitely a new one!! Haha can see the theory behind it though. Suppose it's the oil base in it. May give it a go and put up some picks!! Ha
  19. Grant
    Yes I am mate Can't wait to give her a proper clean... Clay Polish & waxing. Cheers hopefully we'll make some decent progress reasonably soon
  20. Grant
    5 miles !?!? Think I've travelled further for a push bike!!
  21. Grant
    Yeah probably sensible mate.. Would be interesting to know whether you an feel the difference
  22. Grant
    Bugger they had some of that in halfords. Will try that out next time I go in. Hmm ok mate thanks. Will have a better look, would prefer not to break them. But they do need to be done. Would just be easier off the car.
  23. Grant
    Yeah £15 is a decent price. Just takes the mick that they try n charge so much more per litre for the little bottle! They really didn't have that many meg products... Only a shampoo and polish that was priced around the same IIRC .. In fairness though I bought the autoglym as it's what in 'used' to. Will try other products out I the future. So first cosmetic issue are the black plastics. These include, side skirts, door trims, roof bars, B pillar covers and most annoyingly the trim that runs along the bottom of the windows. These will definitely need rubbing down and painting. Does anyone know whether they can be taken off? The rest, does anyone use any form of plastic restorer?? Dash shine maybe?? To try and spruse some life back into them??
  24. Grant
    Looks good mate. Your on a roll!! Can you feel the difference with the brace??
  25. Grant
    How far is it away from you?? Seems clean mate.
