Ebized

Came from here: http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/CTGY/370z03 But dosen't look as though your colour is listed. You might have to buy unpainted and get to spray them But to be frank the front ones will not stop the flanks being chipped - its is a design flaw IMO. And to be honest the rear ones only stop the chipping on the underside of the rear bumper where you don't see it anyway, unless on your hands and knees Best bet, in my experience, would be to get a set of aftermarket side sills that drop vertically - like these:

If its still the case, when I got mine the OEMs one in the UK have to be painted. So I imported mine from over the pond - pre-painted and even with shipping/taxes worked out cheaper than the unpainted OEM's. No brainer.

Got yourselves a nice home there - well done all round

Easy as pie with this: http://www.i4detailing.co.uk/acatalog/E ... ush_1.html Nicely cleans the full width of the rim and the back of the spokes through all the openings - just need a smaller brush for the whel nuts/holes. Lasts well too, if you were wondering about the price

and mines a pint please

Would that be 2 rumps or 1 x fillet and 1 x sirloin.........

What oil did the garage use - sounds, from what you have said, that the oil viscosity used during the service is something different to that which was in the car before, aside from the old oil's properties having perhaps lost their full worth.

Always like to see a good strip

Good to see you are trying something quite different to what your instincts would normally say. When I had the 452 Falkens on 19" Nismo rims and pumped up to 38psi I found them fine for road use (wet a dry) including 'spirited' driving. Your initial thoughts about the Kumho's seem to be suggesting they may be offering similar capabilities for everyday road use.

Does she have any choice

Although a shock at the time, the main thing is no harm came to you. I'm sure a good bodyshop would resolve that without a new bonnet

Well spotted Chris (seccond picture) - that certainly does look like the potential problem

21.34 Tea break time was it

That does sound very nice - I bet that puts one very big on your face on the road

With no single driver or car standing out above the others (unlike last year with Vettel and Red Bull), this is turning into a really cracking season. Shame about the Schui wheel nut ****-up with the potential for a Mercedes 1 & 2 and then Button's wheel nut delay as he might have given Nico the hurry-up towards the end with his tyres clearly at the cliff edge. Yep - really good race to watch in the last third.

Smurfing good

Many moons ago I towed my Chamios Sport on a an A-Frame to events with a Mk1 Golf GTi. Remember a great time on one occasion at Goodwood using both cars on track - two completly different handling cars.

Just follow points 1-3 & all will be fine If not, PM Keyser I'll stick to admiring others skills and work, unless you have Dr Who powers and can transport me back in time And find me a house with a good sized garage

See your little helper is on hand - looks like he's sniffing a rat up that pipe I'm coming to the conclusion it pays to have small hands installing all the bits, something I don't possess aside from the lack of technical knowledge/confidence to do what you are doing

As you say the vids never convey the sense of speed or the braking force going on, but nice smooth driving there and must say I liked the little repeats showing the Aston who was boss on the pit straight

I would hope so - no what I wasn't sure about is when Sparky mentioned that with his mum;s Clio you just walked up to that and I presume pulling the handle or something did the unlock - I think I've seen that on the Ford ads?
