Removed Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 so you like the plastic cover now? make your mind up will ya? nice Steve, I'm hoping to even better that Quote
lomoto Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 Spot on steve ... did you do it?? also with not having removed my plenum yet, is there a gasket or similar to replace once removed?? Quote
steve_jones Posted August 23, 2006 Author Posted August 23, 2006 I had it sent off and polished , as the original casting is pretty rough, There is a gasket but it is seperate so can be reused Steve Quote

Emperor Ming Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 Looks great mate.

Its coming to engine bay like MINE soooooonnnnnnnn!! Ming the Colour blinded Quote
Liam's Z Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 Very nice Steve.... Not as nice as my rear valance Quote
Mathys Posted August 24, 2006 Posted August 24, 2006 Looks very good. I want to get my plenum done as well. How much would it be approximately to get it polished? And I guess you're not able to drive the car without a plenum, so how long does it take normally? Quote
lomoto Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 just had my plenum back from the polishers Quote
Removed Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 just got mine back too powdercoated though, very sparkly Will post pics once I have all the bits (spacers etc) and put them on Quote
lomoto Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 that looks amazing expensive? a bit expensive ..yes.. but they had to grind back all the rough casting before the polishing process .. cost £60 all in.. but a real mirror finish.. just got to wait until the Kinetix melts and I'll put it on Quote
Removed Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 don't be so pessimistic! there's kevlar in the mix you know! Quote
