  1. So with the glorious technological advancement that are tea towels, I decided to see what the new spoiler would look like on the car before deciding whether I keep it or go for a V2 Nismo. Deciding on the colour is the tough bit though; gloss black it looks too 'aftermarket stuck on', but then I'm thinking about going for a black roof as well which may make it work with the GM. Another option is to matte black the spoiler and roof to sit more inline with the wheels. Or to just have it GM to look less 'stuck on', which I'm not sure if I'll like or not! This image I've changed the roof to black to see what it looks like. Thoughts welcome!
  2. Finally got round to getting the arches rolled as I'e been away a few weekends. £60 for the rears by a guy from 'BandedSteels'. They operate around Blackburn/Manchester/North Yorkshire. Well worth a call out if you need them doing. It took me an absolute age to find someone in the North West that rolled arches. These guys did a great job and for £60 was much cheaper than ArchEnemy wanted. Their contact details are on their site, which is dubious to say the least compared to their work http://www.bandedsteels.com/ Ordered some Tein springs to swap the Eibach ones out with. Hopefully going from 30mm drop to 17/14mm drop will stop any rubbing along with the arches being rolled. Will get some photos up next weekend if the weather is good once I have installed the springs
  3. Which ones were they on eBay? Be good to see some daytime photographs as well to see what they're like on/off in the day
  4. It is as I fitted it to my 2004. It's very easy to do. Once you've got the airbox out of the car, which is straightforward, it's quite literally putting silicone around it then sticking it to something. Think it was the first mod I personally did to the car, and I'm useless with a spanner!
  5. Ah there's my awful memory being useful once again
  6. What made you go for the EPR rep over RTP's? They have the washer holes don't they?
  7. Love darker wheels on a gun metal zed
  8. Will have a look through them all on my lunch and confirm if/what ones I'm after. WIll be for pre-facelift DRLs though. Any idea how long they take to be made/shipped over?
  9. Lip spoiler no longer for sale. Spacers were provisionally sold but not heard back from the member in a week so back up for sale.

    Which spoiler?

    Could be an Elia looking at some photos, anyone know? Also how can I tell what it's made of?

    Which spoiler?

    Can anyone ID this spoiler, looks very similar to the Lester I posted in the OP.
  12. Thread can be closed, bought some new for £140!
  13. PM'ing the guy who wanted them. If he doesn't get back to me then they're yours if you want
  14. I have a set of 4x20mm ones for sale,, currently pending payment but if the deal falls through I can sell the pair of 20mms to you.
  15. I stuck a piece of the Halfords stuff on each side of the numberplate, not sticking any more! Think it's lasted 6 months and 1 side is off completely with the opposite side looking dubious. Will have to restick it this weekend, think the heat recently has softened it up and with the stiffness of the numberplate it's pulled itself off the bumper.
  16. Are you available to hire around Christmas time? You wrapped the undertray better than I wrap my missus' presents Nice and quick delivery, thanks
  17. Nice little jump! RS Tuning managed to get my 2004 to 293 then to a smidge under 302bhp. Wouldn't expect any more without spending some serious $

    Which spoiler?

    EPR are out of stock of the V2, around a four week wait. Looks like I'll have to wait before buying what I want as I know some places might only offer a refund for badly fitting parts within 28 days.
  19. Looking to increase the ride height of my car. The 30mm drop seems too much and with future bumper changes I'm thinking a small drop will be perfect. Thanks
  20. They're 19x10, just need some bigger tyres on the rear!
  21. Eibach Pro Spacers - 20mm x 4 £150 for all 4 or £80 for a pair. Includes delivery. Not needed any more as I use PCD adaptors for my new wheels. I will either sell them as a 4 or in 2 pairs. I only have 5 nuts for the spacers, you can buy the other 15 from Driftworks for £1 each (here) OEM Lip Spoiler - Blade Silver £50 + delivery In good condition but a small thin crack on the left hand side and a slight mark on the right.
  22. Amazon. I bought the bigger size as I thought I might need a lot but you really don't. Pour a bit onto a cloth, rub onto the adhesive and leave 30 seconds then rub it. Just rinse and repeat until it comes off! http://www.amazon.co.uk/Goo-Gone-Large- ... 297&sr=1-2

    Which spoiler?

    Blitz looks good but I think I'll go for a V2 if I can find a good rep the Lester is my favourite but not twice as much as the V2!

    Just found a non-carbon NI2 on EPR Lexx, £195. How does EPR stuff rate for fitment/quality?
  25. TomS

    Which spoiler?

    I do like the zed without a spoiler but definitely prefer with. Hopefully I'll be able to find a Nismo V2 replica to compare prices to the others. Nismo V1 Rep - £185 Gia Cuzzo Rep- £110 Nismo V2 Rep - £195 from EPRacing Nismo V2 Rep with Carbon - £350 Celica - £120 Lester - £335 + VAT and Import Duty most likely edit: Just found a price for the NI2. How are EPRacing at replica Nismo parts?
