  1. This week the Civic flew through the MOT with no advisories! I have also been to a couple meets/events and been giving the M a hard time. I feel pretty bad as I never rag my Civic like that. But she seem to LOVE IT! Unfortunately no pictures from the meets but hope to put some up next time
  2. Thanks to everyone for their comments! Yes it is Halfords heat paint. It's usually the last place I want to go to but I thought, surely they can't go wrong with paint. Obviously they have... haha
  3. Again, I love how your VTi-S brightens up! It really does show the PB perfectly! I still haven't used the claybar stuff, I really wish I use that instead of polishing mine all day... Top work Nick!
  4. Looking good, was it a pain to wrap with those tight bends?
  5. Awww nice... You say cheap but I bet it still cost a fortune for re-trim haha. Nice handles too!
  6. I think I will leave calipers as they are now.. I got bored today so I polished her up. The Civic is gleaming now I have to sort out this dent and deep scratches on the bumper. Looks even worse when you see it personally
  7. Cool, I have got burgundy red spray paint which I was going to use for the bits and pieces in the engine bay. Guess I'll use that to spray over the calipers
  8. Cheers lads! Another update... I decided to spray paint all 4 calipers today. I expected it to come out red because it says red on the can... instead, it comes out bright neon orange To be honest I hate the colour but I can live it. Is it possible to paint over high heat paint or do I have to sand it all down again? Thanks
  9. Still nothing on lowering but I am being careful on what to choose. I really fancy a set of Koni coilovers, I'm watching a set of EG ones on Ebay Oh yeah just a small update... I went into Halfords to get brake cleaner (preparing to spray the calipers red or purple soon) and then I came across these in the clearance section! This one says 9 leds but I got 16 leds and it only cost me a FIVER! The pictures don't do it justice but they are super bright crystal white!
  10. I'm liking the table and not too sure on the bling BUT like you said, it's having a laugh, I like that A lot of people take modifying too serious. Top job on the build and nice photos
  11. Bit of a late reply (work an all) but it's good to see your sticking with the Civic I wonder what those horns gonna sound like? I got Ford Granada twin horns on mine. Sounds meaty lol
  12. I'm falling behind again... haha. The lighting side of it is looking sweet Mr.B, I will probably get some led bulbs the rears now I recently got a 16x led panel for the interior light (a bit like yours) looks crystal white inside haha. It's a tad too bright for my liking but I will soon get use to it...
  13. The dials look tops! I hate the orange dials because it looks soo dated! And good job on the sunroof
  14. That safe feeling from preventing rust! I have undersealed my car too. The slam bar, bumper supports, seals, and around the arches (got a bit messy lol)
  15. Nice one, looks a lot better! Did you just spray paint straight on the calipers with primer? I want to do mine dark purple...
  16. I'm loving that washer bottle, awesomely different! Did you paint it on there?
  17. Looks awesome, I love the black edition discs! You should get a sticker saying "StealthAsF>ck!" I recently had to replace one of the rear calipers on my MB3. I noticed it was sticking when rolling to a stop. I have to admit MB calipers are shocking!
  18. I like the sound of those, I will keep my eyes open for them! I got like 10 coilovers on watch on ebay but I cannot decide which ones to go for. Do you know if the EK's or EG's fit our MB's? I know its one of them I cannot wait too! It was one of the first things I wanted to do when I got my car. But I keep getting caught up with other things lol
  19. Again, well done to your missus! I think it will look better once its in the car because it wont be as bright, if that makes sense?
  20. Does the owl relate to something in the box? Is it a backbox?
