  1. Not sure I want them, maybe a custom set of OCTET
  2. Brakes and suspensions finished now, also manage to get an ARC intake which I'll get it back to the original state, polishing it!
  3. Just out of interest, who is driving the car whilst you are concentrating on the above? My partner, of course!
  4. Yeah, I love it as well, feels so natural in hand. Apps are a bit behind in terms of the larger layout, but I can see more and more are updated every day. I've tried Apple Maps and navigation, so far I'm really happy with how it works, better than TomTom in my opinion: shows next turn indication in top row while in a call or other apps, etc
  5. I had 23.5 billion stone chips from Wales on the front bonnet, cracked front bumper and 2 dents on the passenger door. I wanted the car paint to be in pristine condition before wrapping it, which also will protect the paint. Also, stone chips would have caused lots of bubbles in the wrap...
  6. The spraying, suspensions, wheels, callipers and the engine bay should be completed by the end of the week. 3-4 weeks later we can start the last bit, the vinyl wrapping. In between I'll do the interior bits, including the Google Nexus 7 in the cubby, replacing the old android tablet.
  7. HA HA I thought this won't come as surprise to you, you should know me by now My car was still in the oven, freshly painted:
  8. Little update: The Berk intake arrived back from the Polishing God - Wasso: So did the Blitz Spoiler which looks superb and absolutely perfect fit: and some larger sample of the turquoise vinyl we have ordered. Not sure the light conditions and the camera show the entire awesomeness of the colour in these pictures Also ordered the front reflectors in clear white with 24 SMD led bulbs, will post some photos and a review when they will be fitted.

  11. Hello, I'm afraid it's already SOLD. Thank you
  12. We lost it Poker buddy, I told you already! The guy from the scrap yard next door to RT-Performance won it, it's already made into Coke cans, fish cans, etc Details here: http://www.john-west.co.uk

  14. I'm more after a OEM look than mobility of the device, you can update and upload wireless on it, what's the point to remove it? I use the iPad for browsing and stuff when I'm not on the macbook
  15. That is the old setup, I don't think I can squeeze it in as it is, need to strip the case. Will update when I get to it
  16. No, not yet, but will add some description and photos when doing it, probably later this week, need to finish the engine bay first. I use Google/Asus Nexus 7 to replace the tablet I installed with Cookie last year, I've got some videos from when we were doing it, will post these as well. So far I've rooted the tablet, installed the apps listed in my first post, toghether with the usual - Facebook, Twitter, Skype, Instagram, etc, defined different layouts in the Chameleon Launcher, like Driving, Social, System etc, tested the tablet for about a week, works flawlesly, no crashes, nor any other problems. Next will take it apart and solder the buttons for Volume Up, Down and Power to the buttons in the satnav cubby in my old setup, stick the screen in the cubby with a plastic gun, link it to the power, connect Torque to the OBD port through Bluetooth, jack into the stereo system and we're good to go. and

  18. In the end I went for the TWM Performance, awaiting delivery - 0.25" height reduction - 37% throw reduction - Ball bearings at lower pivot point - Vibration dampening design - Lifetime Warranty Anyone else here using this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_THPtH92oM
