Payco Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Ok, I appreciate a fair few people on here paid compliment to my polished look engine bay, however I decided to re model it as I was bored and zeditus just keeps getting the better of me. First and foremost I would like to say a forum thank you to : Ricey - for the great hydro dipping job, Rickdon - for the under bonnet mirror kit, Mopedmark - refurbed bonnet catch, Ewen- Clarkmotorsport- spare plenum bolt, Keyser for the engine cover and endless amounts of help and Zippypooz for help with the rebuild. All these people help to make this forum a great place to be part of. Thankyou Anyway some I-pad photos I took last night. All opinions welcome, good or bad. 6 Quote
rav525 Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Well done bud, spot on once again! Enjoy the new look! Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Looks great But not as good as before Glad you're happy though ! Quote
Wasso Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Looks great But not as good as before Glad you're happy though ! Sorry not feeling it..... The ARC needs to go, it looks wrong now. Loved your bay previously obviously because of its incarnation from mine. Not sure if there's too much blue going on, looks very dark. What matters though is that YOU like it which by the sounds of it you're chuffed Quote
WINKJ Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 the work looks well done - personally not a fan. I have never really been a fan of spraying/dipping/painting OEM parts. V1 was spot on ! Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) Those plastic bottles need replacing with some anodised or polished ones... Edited June 2, 2015 by octet@TORQEN Quote
Payco Posted June 2, 2015 Author Posted June 2, 2015 Thanks for the honest feedback guys. Its good to hear all the different opinions, good and bad... Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Work in progress, working on some titanium versions, burnt, natural and anodised. Quote
Payco Posted June 2, 2015 Author Posted June 2, 2015 Not sure yet. Will be a small fortune if I do, I paid over £400 for it and you cant find them for love nor money these days.. Quote
coldel Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Looks amazing, although you set the bar VERY high with your previous bay and have to say prefer the previous one - but know what you mean, the desire to constantly be tinkering does get the better of you! Quote
Payco Posted June 2, 2015 Author Posted June 2, 2015 Thanks for the honest feedback Col. See you at the Woodman. Is your bonnet all fixed after the slate incident ?. Quote

At least I didn't just go out on the tiles with the money they paid me No Alfie this time at the Woodman, too much chasing around and I can stay for food then Quote
Payco Posted June 2, 2015 Author Posted June 2, 2015 Very good mate. He's the future of the club but I understand.. Quote
Mike k-g Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Sorry pal but your old bay was awsome...not sure of new to much blue. Mike k-g Quote
Payco Posted June 5, 2015 Author Posted June 5, 2015 Looks much better in the flesh, but thanks for all the feedback.. Quote
14N Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Must admit I was a fan of the previous version and the amount of work that clearly went into it. I think with v2.0, the one picture probably isn't doing it justice mate. Get it out in this sunshine and get some more pics up Quote
Payco Posted June 5, 2015 Author Posted June 5, 2015 Will do that at the weekend. 14N. What's your real name as I don't think we have ever met and it feels in personal calling you 14N all the time.. Martin 1 Quote
14N Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) What's your real name as I don't think we have ever met and it feels in personal calling you 14N all the time.. I've been called much worse... Like you, my forum username uses (part of) my registration. I've got 14N in my reg as my name is Ian. I often think I should of chosen I4N as my username as this is a little more obvious Edited June 5, 2015 by 14N Quote
