  1. Buy the car and tell him to knock another £80 off so you can transfer the reg over once you get your V5 back.
  2. Phone them up tomorrow and go through all the steps with them including negotiating etc, then just as you're about to accept the quote, tell them you're breaks over and you gotta go
  3. I assume you mean 35% profile? If you are running 245/35 and 275/35 then yes, the spacesaver will be fine for a few miles to get yourself sorted.
  4. Yup was black, it's long gone now but It's a hard choice because there is risk with the V2. As I said before, it different here in NI compared to what these guys are saying, but if the tester isn't being a knob, you'll probably get away with it.
  5. Here in NI they are an MOT requirement, whereas on the mainland they are only required to work if they are fitted. Subtle different but makes a big difference. However, when I fitted the V2 I never bothered with the washers and it got through the MOT, they did ask about them, though, in a roundabout way.
  6. Nismo... Just kidding, Mustang
  7. Knight racer will be similar to EPR, RTP on the other hand I have heard good things about their fit, but they are a bodyshop and tend to fit most of their stuff themselves.
  8. EPRacing are shite fit. I got my carbon V2 from them and the bodyshop nearly murdered me, it was that bad. For carbon skinning, talk to CarbonWorx near Bangor. Chris Gaw 07737 096962
  9. Whats the other end of the pipe connected to? There is nothing there. 100% import or not, the intake pipe in on upside down.
  10. A V1 is a standard bumper with a lip, so if you want a carbon lip, sell the V1 and buy a carbon lip to fit the your OEM bumper. Alternatively you can get the lip carbon skinned, but that'll likely cost more than buying and fitting a carbon lip.
  11. I wouldn't bother. It'll cost you around £250 probably and I wouldn't be knocking that much off for a few kerb marks on standard OEM alloys.
  12. Send them back. They're about £150 over priced if thats the price you paid for them. They do however fit and I'm assuming the shop can't get the bulb holders to fit. They can be a bit fiddly because there is only one angle they fit, anything else they just frustrate you.
  13. They do it every year in Belfast. There's everything from American muscle to Ferrari's taking part.

    New wheels fitted.

    IMO.. Car ruined sorry.
  15. Shouldn't have bought Teins if you were even vaguely interested in lowering

    Bird Poo

    Bird poop will remove sealants and waxes. The only way to avoid it is to remove it immediately.
  17. A Cayman is on a 2 year service cycle, so when you take the £200-300 per year servicing on the Zed, the £500 for a Porsche Service Centre to service the Cayman isn't expensive at all. Another example is disks and pads for the M6. BMW main dealer want the guts for £1200 for the fronts, the exact same OEM disks, pads and sensors on eBay are sub £500. BMW service costs are a joke, they quoted me £960 for a major service. Needless to say, the M6 goes elsewhere.
  18. I wouldn't worry too much about making a heat shield, it'll only affect the car when stationary . Once you get moving, there'll me more than enough cool air coming through the grill to prevent heat soak.
  19. Thats not a V1. It's a standard pre facelift bumper with a CF lip (C-West I think) You may need to purchase new arch liners for it to fit your HR. Save your cash and buy something decent IMO.

    Plenum Hose

    I'm not sure of the diameter, put it has a one way valve in it and it's generally not advised to change it, if thats what you're thinking?
  21. Because then PH would lose business from the bad traders?
  22. So a guy drives like a bit of a dick that hypothetically could cause an accident and he deserves to die for it? Bit harsh isn't it? BTW - he's some pilot
  23. Size of the rims is irrelevant when it comes to arch gap, providing you are buying appropriate tyres to keep within OEM limits.
  24. IMO the car is too standard to pull this off.
  25. It's a great big diesel SUV, remapping it will kill the planet!
