Hi guys, just after some bits just to liven it up a bit really... ideally from the same person but let’s see who’s got what. aerial steering wheel head unit surround (black plastic with the pocket space at the bottom) front seat head rests thanks in advance guys!

Anyone with a vti s hatch can show a pic or explain the proper fitting of the rear lip please... Ive fitted mine but just used the 4 screws that go on each end and im going to use black cable ties to go underneath holes cos i dont have the bolts or the plastic clips.... 2 things im not sure about is there some metal brackets that go in between the bumper and the lip where it meets the arches that the screws go through. Are these brackets supposed to be clipped in over the screw holes on the lip or the bumper it self? Also i noticed the top of the lip where it touches the bumper has slight gap so not a tight fit...is there supposed to be some 3m double sided strip to applied across the lip on the inside? I do have some 3m but ive read its supposed to be applied in warm weather or it wont bond... Sorry for long post but rather than put another thread up i might aswell ask here if anyone has any ideas if mg zs sideskirts can be fitted without those plastic clips that are fitted on the inside? Sadly i had mine painted then realized that all plastic clips and holders are non present as when i broke my zs earlier this year i unkowingly pulled the skirts incorrectly causing them to rip off.. Any help appreciated

Hy all! I am looking for a VTI-S front and rear lips and a rear door wing for AERODECK. Does anybody for sale shipped to Hungary? I also need an original air intake tube (goes from the air intake box) in good condition.

Hi, looking to buy a VTi rear lip for the deck, I know I know, it's kind of a longshot, but just in case. willing to spend a pretty penny for a Titan Silver one, but any colour is welcome. I also have an MB6 VTi rear lip to trade if interested. thanks a lot!

In big trouble, car is on the road it got its mot but afterwards one of the projectors came loose in the headlight, which is now sealed!! i now need a spare set ASASASAP to put in which I deal with re retrofitting my projectors!! is there any about? Don’t care on condition, they just need to work!!

Has anyone fitted a nosebra to they car? I see many cars with a nose bra but never saw one on our models. I know they excist but want to see one and how it looks.

Has anyone here bought new aftermarket front fenders for their MB6? Or just got used ones from scrap yard etc. ? I was wondering if the aftermarket ones fits directly or if there are any seam gaps, if the headlight and bonnet fit to it properly etc. Things that can go wrong. Diederichs makes them but couldn't find those. I got myself Polcar ones. https://catalog.polcar.com/#!KatKatalogGlowny/fender-front-381102/492184 Should i try fitting them first before getting them painted at a shop? I was thinking of putting them on later in spring. But could get them painted already. Any bodypanel/exterior info would be welcome in this forum. Considering aftermarket parts especially.

Hi everyone! I want to change all rear lights (blinker,reverse,brake, fog) to LED bulbs and also do the jdm style lights. What LEDs would fit best? if you have any night pics with LEDs post here! And for jdm tail light conversion, i would have to get other fog light loom or i just need the bulb holder? Thank you! (sorry for my English )

Afternoon guys, currently have an 1999 Civic Es Aerodeck in bright red and looking for some body panels. Front bumper Near side front wing Near side front drivers door Hunted high and low but cant find anything, I am located in Stirling in Scotland, Let me know if you have or know of parts that I can buy.

Hi, desperately looking for a full set of mud guards for the MB's, preferably new or in good condition. If not then I would take the rears only, maybe somebody has taken them off to fit a VTIS lip? Arranged to buy some from somebody on eBay but once again an eBay seller is letting me down. Have the front ones fitted so feel kind of stupid without rear ones also. But the front ones are quite worn so wouldn't mind replacements. Thanks!

Hi I'm just wondering if anybody here has experience with fitting the OEM/standard Mb's spoiler onto one that originally didn't have one? Mb2/4 etc Got a spoiler with brake light wiring all complete etc and I'm wondering how to go about it or to bother at all. - Any tips for drilling screw holes in the boot lid for the spoiler? This is what's making me not want to do it to be honest. Scared I'll mess it up. Need the bolts too. - Is there anywhere for the brake light wiring to plug into on the MB2's? I've taken the boot interior out and looked and can't see where it would go to. Any tips/pictures etc would help too. Thanks!

Hi guys, I'm in need of a replacement handle for opening the boot on my deck... Mine has fallen to bits. I could probably do with replacing the whole mechanism to be honest - if anyone can hook me up it'd be much appreciated @10000rpm

Hey Is available an universal fog lights i can buy for my car?

I've spotted some neon style Honda emblems, and they look awesome! However, I have an MB4 and don't know if it's different for others, but my front badge is different to the back. Who thinks I could get away with fitting this to the front and it look okay or would it look weird? Want a red one for the back to come on with sidelights, and white at the front as a DRL.
