  11. was searching for removing the plates n came across this! dont suppose any1 has a pic of the bumper with the plate removed, showing how big the holes are that are left? ive just bought a jap style plate but didnt think of the hastle with removing the old one!
  12. lol cheers! mmm yeah the brakes are a long story
  13. Thought id make the most of the weather and give the zed a good clean Im not gonna go through everything i used but heres a pic of most of it, as well as a few before and after shots. and a few pics after the clean And then i decided to respray this
  14. gave the car a good clean there an its not as bad as what i 1st thought! still not happy with it tho tbh, ill be calling round on monday to get it sorted! heres a pic of it cleaned up dosent look to bad but dosent feel like glass like the rest of the bodywork either
  15. lol ill take a shot off tren and decca
  16. ive seen quite alot of gunmetal zeds about belfast! one quite regularly up at the gym (david lloyds) and another on the cregagh road on thursday, any1 off here?
  17. It was quite dark and didnt realize how bad it was till i got it home under light! i even give him an extra 20 quid
  18. he resprayd the front of my evo before and it was 100% thats why im so confussed as to why his work has gone downhill
  19. yeah m8 app he didnt do the roof because it would get wrecked over the winter months with snow etc And the door handles would be too easily scratched by girls nails etc lol that was his exact words!
  20. Im going to go and speak to him on monday about it! but yeah you def get what you pay for! so iv only myself to blame for bein a cheap skate, but ive got work done before by him on my megane and the work was flawless!
  21. I left my gunmetal z into a local body repair garage on monday to get a few bits resprayed black ( rear lip spoiler, front bumper, wing mirrors, door handles, front and rear badges and roof) wheels refurbed and sprayed gloss black and calipers sprayed in white with brembo stickers! I was quoted £350 for the lot, which i thought was cheap Just picked up the car at 5pm and was to see what they had done to my car! for starters they didnt bother spraying the roof, door handles, wing mirrors as apparently it would have been too much hastle! The middle part of the front bumper was sprayed but obviously sprayed about an hr before i picked it up today as the paint was still sticky! they also decided to stick on AP RACING stikers on my calipers instead of brembo! but they thought it would look nice to put them on upside down aswell! the wheels and the lip spoiler seems to be fine! but the rest is an absolute mess! they only charged me £240 but i still feel like ive been robbed due to the state of the car! sorry for the rant but needed to get it off my chest as the mrs is fed up listening to me! will post up afew pics 2moro as its too dark now and these ones are crap quality! How much did you guys pay for similar work? i guess it was my own stupidity and should have knew better when they quoted me so little at the start
