  1. Cheers for comments guys, think i am gona do paintwork in one hit, probably safer option!

    Will get new rocker seal, looks like its coming from between head and block too on left side but i think its what you said andrew... Cant see coming from actual rocker cover but is around cam seal area so will look into that. I think its coming from there and going down past head join making it look like two leaks when its not! Lol

    Ive had many compliments on the full kit... By that i gather you guys mean the bumper lip kit? If so Thanks for positive comments on it!! :D

    Still getting used to all the lingo haha!!

    (Also already had paint mixed up, glad to have confirmation its defo the titan silver they mixed up for me lol!!)

  2. Right guys im after some advice if possible...

    This car's done just over 150,000 miles... apart from the obvious cambelt, what can I do to prolong her life and stop her blowing up? Already noticed a little oil leak to the left just under the rocker cover, thinking new cover seal as I didnt renew it when I got cover painted?

    Also would I get away with prepping my bumpers to be sprayed, re fitting them, and wait to get them sprayed till another day?? Or am I best to do it in one hit... I guess then ill have it lacquered and protected from the weather?

  3. Very nice! Perfect example here that you cant just choose a few mods and have your perfect set-up... It takes trial and error to get it exactly how you want it, as you have!! And its coming along real nice man!! :D

    Nice road that is to give it some beans! I pass there myself on my way to smallfield bangers lool!!!

  4. Hey lads,

    Have previously put a build thread on civiclife forum but thought I'd wack one up here too for different opinions etc.

    Currently I have re-sprayed the grill and re-badged boot...
    Ive cleaned up bay, powder coated rocker cover and fitted short ram induction kit (soon to be cold air induction kit)...
    Removed headlight washer jets...
    New head unit, fusion sub and fli door speakers...

    Next I plan to fill jet holes in front bumper and re-spray it, along with skirts and rear bumper as they have a few dings etc.

    Purchased the relevant stuff for this from halfords, had a question though... If i get paint colour using cars ext. paint code... Once lacquered will it have the desired effect or will it look out of place.... The silver has a metallic shine to it but not sure if my sprayed bumpers will come out the same as not done this before? Any tips welcome please!!

    Here's a couple pics anyway...
