    LED rear lights

    show me a car or motorcycle without rear reflectors and its illegal, i promise you a lot of aftermarket rear lights for bikes dont have them and everytime you have an mot they flog you a stick on reflector they dont have to be built into the brakes but normally are
  2. think their website is out of date mate "We have four soft waxes, and our hard wax - Banana Armour - has colour-charged its way in, too" i read that then checked the forum
  3. So for an Azure blue (or similar) what colour is the right Dodo juice to use? I may give it a whirl this stuff? Time to try something new! I've been using the Meguairs tech wax for ages, then Mike suggested the R222 stuff which I was about to try but might try this.... Take it that its easy to get on and off. Can't be arsed with anything that is like wiping off treacle! Easy stuff to use Mark. Give Clean and Shiny a call and they can advise the best one. They normally have a hard and soft wax for each tone of finish.... SoftWax Rain Forest Rub- All Colours Purple Haze - Dark Colours Orange Crush – Warm Colours Light Fantastic - Light Colours Hard Wax Hard Candy - All Colours Blue Velvet - Dark Colours Banana Armour - Warm Colours Diamond White - Light Colours Light Colours include: Silvers, White, Light Metallic’s, Light Blues. Warm Colours include: Yellows, Orange, Reds, Gold. Dark Colours include: Black, Greys, Dark Blues, Dark Metallic’s http://www.dodojuice.com/forum/ you should really use lime prime before the wax to get the best out of it
  4. +1 easiest is to clear the nozzles, if not check the pipes, they may be pinched
  5. Yes but your car has to be immaculate before they fit it. The tiniest spec of grit or a shows up as a massive lump. I wouldnt advise anyone get this done unless they hate the idea of a respray. The finish may look OK for a short while but will scratch and scuff easily and stone chips and scratches that you could touch up or buff out with a paint finish will be more like tears and rips and whole panels will need re-doing. Your car wont be as shiny as a nice paint job either. obviously you have had this done to offer up such conclusive advice its pretty obvious the car would need to be spotlessly clean, any lumps show on application and vinyl can be lifted to clean it, i have seen this done
  6. http://www.signlanguageltd.co.uk/colour ... pping.html you could ask, i havent seen prices quoted anywhere
  7. beading can dry on leaving water spots but its ok if you use the car, better if the water sheets really
  8. they did a lambo in matt black - was on pistonheads
  9. awesome wheels......whats next ?
  10. Yep, already got them, and i've got a big soft drying towel coming too. I've been reading up on Detailing World, some of those guys have, well, OCD as they put it! +1 http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/s ... hp?t=80165
  11. have you tried layering dodo juice rob ? i'm sure you would like it and it would last longer
  12. http://www.worldcarfans.com/9080331.007 ... us-exige-s the design possibilities are endless
  13. +1 no prepping is needed as there is with spraying And no waiting inbetween coats, buffing or finishing! not sure about waxing the vinyl though
  14. +1 no prepping is needed as there is with spraying
  15. much easier to have custom design ......like this http://necromanc.blogspot.com/2007/09/l ... ingly.html
  16. If you get fed up with it you just unwrap it
  17. its only for noise so how one be better than another ? always wondered about the heat soak problem with a metal intake pipe ?

    LED rear lights

    i think by law the rear must have red reflectors for night time (mot)
  19. you did order the hard candy jim ?
  20. no problem, google dodo juice and read some reviews, most of the cars shown on here detailed have had it used on them but if you are happy with R222
  21. http://www.r222-shop.co.uk/?gclid=CKSb6 ... tAodOFiNYQ http://www.thepolishingcompany.com/r222 ... range.html http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_from=R40&_trksid=m38&_nkw=r222
  22. Is it Carnauba wax, or a paste? Wax - a lot of detailers use it to finish with, better shine and longer lasting than P21s or R222 as its called now they make dodo juice in different types for different colours, for your Gm you would need Hard Candy dodo juice
  23. If you want to try something new, i would recommend you try dodo juice jim if you want p21s then google R222
