  1. I think Paisley Freight do a fixed price for front bumpers mate.
  2. it has the washers and plate mount fitted too
  3. I have one too but two of the undertray mounts are broken.
  4. Some pics of the second one, almost done!
  5. Would love any feeback positive or not
  6. Uploading pics now. For anyone considering doing this i hope you have a lot of patience! The first one is done the second just needs a bit more work doing to it so that im happy. One thing i have noticed while doing these are that there are quite a lot of air bubbles in the metal from the casting, sanding and grinding the top down i would get close then more bubles would appear which was very annoying! There are parts which i have done my best to get into but they are just too awkward. Nath.
  7. These should be done today, I'll upload some pics in a bit.
  8. Im guessing this is some kind of mobile home thing lol.
  9. A mate of mine was driving back to Basingstoke earlier this week and spotted these chaps!
  10. Glue. Put your hand at the base of the gear gator and pull it firmly from the rear and it should pop up. at the rear is a ribbon cable remove that. Pulling that panel out of the way if you look under the dash there will be a white box with 2 screws in and another two securing the dash. to the right of that on the edge of the dash there is another set of screws remove these also. Next open the cubby and remove the rubber matt. under the matt there are two screws remove these and then the plastic panel. Under the panel you will see two screws recessed in the dash remove these and that is all the screws removed. pull the dash slightly forward at the bottom i find putting my hand at the back of the headunit helps. What you need to do now is put your had at the very top of the center console where it meets near the windscreen. put your hand in the center and FIRMLY pull forward. you will definately feel the dash click out of the clip that holds the top in. the whole dash will now come forward about an inch and on the right hand side you will see a little white connector that needs to be removed. Finally you should be able to bring the dash forward enough to remove all the connections from the headunit and the lot will come out. That is probably the worst guide ever but i have typed it as it came into my head from removing it so many times. any problems let me know.
  11. Just out of interest is your front bumper a replica or a genuine one?
  12. Just to update, i have the first two plenums and they are in the process of being polished. i had hoped to have them finished by wednedsay but it is going to take a bit longer. I will have them a week today at the latest, although one may be done by wednesday we shall see! The first pair have been reserved but as soon as i have the exchange items back i will get the next set done. Nath. P.S thank god for industrial wire wheel brushes!
  13. Mate have you tried paisley freight? https://www.paisleyfreight.com £25 apparently but im not sure about insurance.
  14. Thats @*!#, some arse hit mny front bumper in a car park not long after i had my nismo v2 kit fitted. needless to say i feel your pain!
  15. They have arrived now, should have them fitted next weekend pics of them here viewtopic.php?f=38&t=36078
  16. Just take the rear bumper off its inst hard at all. once you get it off it will be 10x easier to remove the clusters instead of fiddling and cutting your hands to bits.
  17. I think 40 an hour is about average from my experience, thats in oxfordshire.
  18. I still havent got them apparently they are in transit.
  19. most of the time im in oxford mate but my parents is back in wales I come home a few times a month though. meeting up is better for me to be honest that way im not waiting for you to post your plenum back to me. nath
  20. hi guys at the moment im not doing throttle body but may look into doing them too at some point. im hopefully getting the spare plenums tomorrow and hope to have them polished early next week. as soon as I have them done ill upload lots of pics for those that are interested to see. Obviously i'll only have two at a time polished so it will be on a first come first served basis. nath
  21. Yeah i have to say, paint the bonnet white and leave the roof.
  22. No mate, basically ill send you a plenum, you send me yours. just the one i send you will be a standard plenum but it will be polished. it is a straight swap
  23. im going to be doing polished plenums £100 on an exchange basis soon if your interested? that includes postage back to you.
  24. 1. it is a simple swap of the existing plenum mate, i send you a polished one and you send me your old one. removing the old one and fitting this i doubt would take more than an hour tops. 2. nothing new is required, though if the gasket is old/perished you may want to replace it. 3. none at all! 4. The only purpose is a bit of engine bay bling for those who are into shiny engine bay parts.
