  1. This is the stuff you want... http://www.einszett.co.uk/Gummi-Pflege.php Picked mine up from eBay.
  2. Bit late now... but I bought some of that rubber grease/lube stuff everyone was reccomending. Do your windows drop? Tried a hair drier on the seals?
  3. It look ME (and I am useless at this sort of thing) about 30 mins to do BOTH sides. And it was like 2 degrees outside. Would have been ten mins each side if it was warm... and if I had the photo's I have now. The install guide isn't great... but I figured it out. (Maybe I am just a little dumb!) But you guys now have the photo's of mine showing you what goes where. I can always take more photos... or even do an install guide. VERY easy to do! (Edit: using the stay, it is a one man job, you can do one side at a time.)
  4. Yup.... The whole lot.... Used to be that it was "free" ... all you had to do was train someone else when you had passed. but now it's £135 for the whole thing... which includes 2 years for you to pass I think. Pretty sure, if you fail, you have to pay for the test again (which is like £30 or something)
  5. Cheers Bradders... Im supposed to be going out on my last run with my "watcher" today, before my pre-test next week... But it's fecking SNOWING!
  6. Anyone played with this at all? Spotted this for £111 ... thought it might be worth a punt... http://www.projectbikecam.com/reviews/9 ... eview.html
  7. Trade them in? Who does that? I was thinking about keeping them and putting some winter tires on them (Buy em in he summer if they get cheap) But they have the big stupid spacers on them, which I am presuming will be a PITA to take off the hubs and then put back on again. So a trade in may be a good idea. Who does trade in's?
  8. boooger.... Did they say how long it was going to be? How does it look so far?
  9. Decided when I bought my Zed I would have a go at my IAM. Weather has been terrible, but I am finally ready to do my pre-test! Anyone else got into the IAM way of thinking?
  10. Thye do look good. Im not really a Carbon Fiber fan if im honest. But they are good quality CF... Gonna take the stickers off them when it gets light. IF it doesn't SNOW!
  11. Yeah, looks like painting them is out. Im looking at the GTR's now... Something in this style... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0303933750
  12. Yup... seen the guy before, I think he owns the shop there on the left and wanted to park to unload his stuff from the cash 'n' carry. Parking is SO SO bad round there. Anyway... Did you mess with these Husky? Know how to set the time or alter the Quality? I think I can only fit 20 mins on my 2gig miniSD
  13. Mine JUST turned up... thought i'd try it out so went for a bit of a spin. NEARLY ended up needing it! I am SURE I wasn't crowding this bloke.... and I dearly died when he almost revered into the Red Golf on the roundabout. I watched him, he didn't look in his mirrors or anything. The roundabout was chocka! D1CK! (oh, p.s. .... how do I change the time?)
  14. Cheers... and at £7.50 a VERY cheap mod Nah...Gonna a leave the stay on. It is pretty light and would only clutter up the garage/get lost. May as well leave it where it is
  15. DOH! Knew I had forgotten something
  16. FIRST MOD OF THE YEAR! Due to me being a Jammy git and winning Tarmac's raffle, I have a set of bonnet Struts! Just popped em on while I was touching up some bonnet chips. I was worried that the bonnet wouldn't open as far with them on, as some photo's I have seen the bonnet looks "half open"... But I had nothing to worry about, it opens about 1 or 2 degrees MORE than it does with the stay! As you can see, the "stay" doesn't quite reach now Will take some pics of the bonnet closed in a min.... Forgot to do that a min ago... Pretty cool.... Just gotta take off the rear ones and get them sent off to be re-gased
  17. Hmm, oh well. Sorry to say, I don't like those....

  19. I don't think "split" spokes suit the car myself... just want either a 5 or 6 "solid" spoke. Will get a proper quote on the TE37 SL's
  20. thats the best start to a poll yet lol You know it! This was take the DAY I bought the motor (only decent photo I had for messing with the colour of the alloys) The side Z-Badge went on a couple of days later Totally agree, I LOVE the look of them... but they are CRAZY CRAZY prices! I think either 5 or 6 spokes look the best on the 350's... I also love "deep-dish" alloys (not sure how good they look on the Zed) Thing is, my current alloys fit what I want... but they are a strange size and badly scuffed I do like the idea of a dark/black matt alloy..... suggestions people?
  21. With all due respect, those are some seriously chavvy looking wheels anyway, but by putting the green on them they stand out from the Halfrauds crowd a bit more. Yeah, I totally agree with you. They are AWFUL alloys. What I REALLY want are either Rota GTR's or Volk T37's....
  22. Just had the Green vitoed by Tam... as they look too "Chavy" I recon they COULD look good..... Im starting to think a decent set of Volk T37's is the way to go. Keep these as is.... A little boring I know but I DO like the T37's.
  23. Presuming that will hike the price up.... Don't want to spend too much as they will only be winter alloys... Suppose I could always ask.
  24. When I say they are the "wrong size" they are only 8 wide at the rear...
