Me and a few mates went out last night to see if we could do some slow shutter speed pics! It went quite well but the camera battery died before we could go to the motorway bridge, what do you think?
I also started refurbing my wheels, only got one done but it looks pretty good :thumbs:
This one was just to see what it would look like, I hadnt done the kurbing yet
Then on the car

Looking good, have you considered doing the spokes black instead ?
Thanks mate, I did a couple of photoshop's .. including black and I decided gold was the option for me! I do like black rims with a chrome lip tho

Btw when you bolt the rim back together does it need to be in a certain torque?

I really need to do this with the Surfs split rims, but they are considerably worse than yours...
Hi guys,
Unfortunately for my mate he blew up his MR2 the other day, but fortunately for my I got his EBC
I started fitting it in the ashtray with the intention of making it shut so the controller would be hidden. As I was cutting away some of the ashtray I mad a mistake and broke it :wack: so shutting wasnt an option any more lol when I get some more time I'll do it again properly and make sure it shuts and lines up perfectly. :thumbs:
I also added some s15oc goodness
What do you guys think?

Ok, well the Irish post office are bastard$ and are always bloody expensive. I'll be talking to James tomorrow and I'll see what I can get it off him for, the postage alone will probably be about €10! If I can get it off of him for €10 I'll get it and post it out to you, if I can't I won't...
Sound like a plan? And if I do, sure you can get me again...

Got a little update, just trying to tidy the car up a little bit tbh! I have no money at the mo but really wanted to work on the car So I gave it a good wash, clay and polish!!
I also had some black paint and black mesh in the garage so thought I might as well use it up! :thumbs:
I fitted the mesh first, before there was nothing there and you could see the floor through the bumper, looked like something was missing..
I then painted the scuttle pannel as it was looking really old and weathered. Went from a discoloured grey to a nice satin black! :thumbs: I also did the wipers whilst I was there!

My Girlfriend bought me some Infinity 6x9's aswell so put them in! sound awesome, I will amp them in the near future :thumbs: Nothing mad though, probably just a 200 watt 2 chanel, unless I get some nice components for the front
Painting the wipers etc looks great, big difference :thumbs: that's something that's been bothering me on mine.....
What paint did you do it with? haha

I used a paint called 'plasticote' it's awesome for plastic's and you don't need a primer!! Make sure you clean and de-grease it first though :thumbs:
cheers for the comments guys!

Hey when you installed the infinity 6x9, I assume that you had to cut out the top panel but did you also have to cut out the body as well? Or did it clear the hole in the chassis?
