  1. Fantastic job. Love the light grey, gives a very classy look. Interesting to see how it stands up to daily wear and tear.
  2. Seems more common on Jap cars, my Prelude had the same problem. Cleaning does help, but not 100%.
  3. Bilt Hamber are very good and only require water as a lube.
  4. Hi, can you add me to the list as well please. Can you pm payment details? Thanks Andy

    Spark Plugs

    Cheaper solution? http://g35driver.com/forums/faq-diy/434721-updated-valve-cover-swap-no-more-leaking-spark-plug-tubes.html
  6. It can be watered down , makes it a little easier to apply and goes further.
  7. I normally wash onnce weekly and that takes about 1.5 hours. This includes a qd or spray wax on body and wheels and tyre dressing. Time flies when your having fun
  8. Mine has also leaked.The spare lid was inside the box just not attached to the bottle in the bag. Nice touch with the coloured glove and cloth.
  9. Good results. Did he tape the surrounding areas of bodywork?
  10. After reading about the damage it could do on tinternet, I had to drain approx. 1l of oil from my Dad's Focus last weekend. . He had topped up with a full 2l can! .

    Wheel refurb

    Had mine done by these guys http://www.auto-wheels.co.uk/wheels/ Tucked away in some farm units. Very happy with the results.
  12. Has he caused any damage to the trim with the scalpel?

    Wonky bonnet

    Could it be a failing hinge. It's a common problem on the 350GT/G35, as they share a similar design.
  14. I've ordered from the U.S. before and had to pay the handling charges from Parcel Force. I can't understand these charges as I've already paid for the postage to my address, why should you have to pay again?
  15. Looks good. When it says it clears codes, does that mean it can also reset the ecu?
  16. The insurance company might also want to see the installation certificate.
  17. Thanks for the positive feedback guys. Jon, I paid a total of £312. Same service, but I left the car with them for 2 days. I was quoted £380 by http://www.thewheelspecialist.co.uk/
  18. Thanks. When I first saw them I thought they were too dark, but I Iike them more and more. The colour really sets off the calipers.
  19. Just had my 350GT oem 18s refurbished by http://www.auto-wheels.co.uk/wheels/ I asked them for a dark smoked chrome finish, similar to the R35 GTR. They did a great job.
  20. http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/ is a great site. It's a slippery slope to OCD!
  21. Thanks for the input guys I think I'll go with the super sports, If I can find them in stock. Auto wheels in Droxford, It's out in the sticks! http://www.auto-wheels.co.uk I'm having them done on the 11th, so I will post pics when completed.
  22. I'm getting my wheels refurbed soon and need new rear tyres. I've can't find anywhere that has stock of Goodyear Eagle asm2. My next two choices would be Michelin Pilot Super Sports or Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta. Or should I wait until the Goodyears are back in stock? Any thoughts? Thanks Andy
  23. I had the same problem with my 350GT. Went back for the third time and the guy doing the tracking told me to sit in the car and hold the wheel where I wanted it. He said his idea of centre may be different to mine
  24. They do make a 'glossifier'. http://www.plastidip.co.uk/eStore/index ... ng&stage=1
