mcjacko1987 Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 ok so a fair few photos now. going from last bit of ford fair prep to the event itself and a few other little bits. so first of all last bit of prep was fitting the finished engine cover and giving her a wash polish wax etc unfortunately the day before ford fair when i was cleaning the bay the header tank tint spray started to flake off hence the rag when taking the pic. its been fine since tinting it and cleaning etc priorer to this so was just my luck this would happen day before ford fair :/ cleaning bit of rain after a bath the morning of ford fair.....some lovely cloud coverage that morning 3am. arrived at ford fair ready to go with my lad on stand ready for the day. had to improvise with header tank and put a mircofibre on there with mini FroSTy ontop. love this pic, great shine my lad with the coppers and whilst i was there took emergency measures and bought this along with a few other bits... entrance pic, splitter, tow strap and tow strap bolt. AND FINALLY to finish off the amazing day i had... FroSTy won her first trophy :yahoo: she won it for the best members car which i did not expect one bit. we had a 60odd car stand on display with mustangs and loads of old school fords. didn't expect to win a thing let alone best car my first time on a stand too. my hard work has been paying off. yesterday i installed my splitter. i did fit the tow strap last week but looked odd so took it off until the front end looks a bit more aggressive.now ive fit the splitter however i now cant go forwards onto my drive. i was parked forward on it when i fitted and when i reversed off... scrappppeee lol.ignore the dirtyness of the car, not washed since ford fair lol this is same position as above pic, but taken from behind it to show how much light is passing threw as above pic looks like its touching the drive lol fly killing machine and a final pic. i put up my entrance pic and trophy up in the front room today nice display. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcjacko1987 Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 Splitter still going strong heard it scrape a couple of times but no marks or damage yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjacko1987 Posted September 17, 2015 Author Share Posted September 17, 2015 splitter still going strong. has some really twitchy bum moments with it but its still on there with minor scuffs anyways the time came to upgrade the brakes. after a lot of hunting and a few options i decided to go for ebc ultimax dics and ebc red stuff pads all round and im really impressed with them. i knew my previous brakes needed changing but didnt know they where this bad. discs had a fair lip though but the front pads looked good but the rears well just look at the comparison.i know brakes should be considered more for performance but dont these just look great i also decided to paint the callipers whilst the discs where off. only managed one coat of paint on them then it rained but the finish has come up great anyways so a few pics to add as usual....*again ignore the dirtyness lol* ignore the before and after pic as unpainted one is rear and painted one with new disc is front, but wasnt until i got on the rears i thought ohh b****r i best take a pic lol. and after breaking them in also time has come for new tyres all round. i have gone for the uniroyal rainsport 3. couldnt argue at £260 full set delivered. read some good reviews on them. now next update as i keep saying this lol..... other than tyres should be the turbo install. i get married next sat so once thats out the way i can get the ball rolling on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
