    New Toy

    nice choice they are great fun and awesome track weapons
  3. 700 for the bumper and 300 to spray it sounds about right
  4. i used 2 triangles of wood, like baby door wedges to pin the handles in the open position for painting. shoved them in underneath and then taped over.
  5. lol i've watched most of their tactics and they make me chuckle, i do like to toy with them. recent one is the copdock interchange roudabout is over the a12, cop sits on the top section looking down slip road, cop car waiting in a layby just before the bridge. the trick is to wizz down the slip road, the jam sandwich on the top calls his mate who then nips out, usually about 1/4 of a mile behind, you can then watch him snake through traffic to catch up with you. he sat on my rear bumper but i was doing the speed limit. its quiet funny because i could see him playing peek a boo in my review mirror as he was hidding behind the car behind me. you then chuckle as he has to go down the next slip road to then go back to his original hiding place. i thought it would be nice to give them something to do.
  6. try swirlx from meguairs. if no luck then get a pro to machine polish for you, place near me will do it for about 50 quid including a wash machine polish, rewash, and wax.
  7. i was told not to use red mist straight after waxing, but to wait 24 hours as it can strip the wax off. after 24 hours the wax has cured enough and it will be fine to use on top.
  8. sounds like you need to look at the suoer charger route. save you spending thousands only to make a few bhp to then realsie you should have gone FI right from the start.
  9. another honda boy
  10. good job cant wait to clean mine this weekend
  11. congrats on the sale, whats the new weapon of choice?
  12. personally if you got the lip i don't think its that noticable. if you put up a pic and said spot the difference and not told me it had the lip on i would have taken a while to notice. but wheels i would have been straight on it. they'll have the biggest visual impact.
  13. I have about 2 months left on my contract. i might upgrade if its that cheap. will have to look into it.
  14. lots of car potential actually comes down to driver potential.
  15. You paid far too much if you paid £16.5k for an 06 car You pay your money, you take your choice... 13k miles - 1 year warrantee, MINT CONDITION..., 2 new rear tyres and tax for a year gives me a bit of a saving mine was 06 12k on the clock GT service, tax, and still in warranty, bought for 15k 2 years ago, wasn't a facelift but that only accounts for about 500quid difference. but if you found one your happy with and it ticks all the boxes then
  16. i once beat a Ferrari off the lights in my mums metro. admittedly it was in the other lane for turning right, but i was still quicker
  17. leave the lip and do the wheels.
  18. i used the 5zigen low height nuts from sarah at chilli red. the locking nut has all corners taken off and a special socket. no nut is theft proof, if someone is deternied enough to nick your wheels they will.
  19. there goes englands chances
  20. looks nice, but at the mo mine works fine, do you reckon there will be a new xbox platform at some point?
  21. These might work without any adjustment or spacers http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/alpine- ... mount.html
  22. mine didn't use a drop, i was running 5w30 royal purple oil
