stoatman Posted May 27, 2011 Author Share Posted May 27, 2011 Cheers, am hoping the powder coaters can match the colour as close as possible with the grill. I'm off on holiday in it next week , hope it wont get too stone chipped straight away. Also got some new original honda badges for the rear too , to smarten that up.

stoatman Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 So , I have finally got round to uploading some pics of the car. I wanted to do it now as I have a couple of things planned and wanted some before pictures. One thing I want to do is replace the rear badges so have bought the genuine Honda ones.In the past two years I have spent a few quid on getting the car straight and have replaced parts perhaps where they could go on for a while longer. however I wanted the car to feel as fresh as possible but wanted a standard look. The car has had :4 new dampersMGZS Rear anti roll barFront Roll bar poly brushedNew thermostat New cv jointnew rear and middle section of exhaustMain rear bushes renewedNew set of tailored , colour coded matsGrounding kit - some yet to be fitted.Change of rear calipers - although am hoping to fit some fully refurbished ones soon.Upgraded infinity front speakers (pain in the backside !)Thats it as well as about five 4/5 services.Its on about 130,000 now and still drives sweet !

stoatman Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 Not quite sure , i think it was about 15 quid. Not cheap , but it is from Honda so was expected.Lings honda parts have prices on their website but they are often a little inflated compared to an actual dealer.
