Would be £40 if was a whole circle lol

Yo Lloyd55vrs here are a few pics, i was tempted to go a few rounds with the bonnet but i havent got the heart to abuse my shiny new brace!!! Also until i relocate my BOV its just high enough to clear it. sort of!! Your relocation setup looks nice, wat benifits have you noticed?

I am going up there tomorrow morning. Have we all bought from the same place? I know Lloyd and I have but what about you Danny?

  • Author

I dunno if ive noticed anything.... But it looks funky

I wrapped my bar in a tshirt bud.... And beat **** out it with rubber mallet ( no damage to the shiny bar )

Bloody things

Looks like theyve become abit of a more pants fit....

Nice work dave :D give him a tonk with mallet to teach how nice its not lol

Just to round this up

After daves visit to the supplier

THESE IN MOST CASES ARE " **** "

3 outbof the 4 ive located via brisk have messed with the bonnet

Unless you result to my hulk guide

The guy even mentioned a rubber mallet and covering it to dave

Just to try and warn folk

PLEASE BARE THIS IN MIND

AND GOODLUCK

Thanks to dave for the trip :)

No Thanks to jom :(

Unfortunately it looks like a case of buy cheap, buy twice :(

  • Author

Agreed ..... Buy cheap.... Beat the **** out of it

Typical the one time i go scumming it bites me in the arse :(

I did enjoy beating it tho.... Just got to tidy up my jabbs shield bit now with some help from dave and his magic dremmel cutty thing :D

To Be fair, he has offered full refunds to anyone who isnt happy, just pop a note in with the product on return and he will refund the £32.

he also said with all mods sometimes the will need "fitting" as they have been built to the specs given/taken from a brand new motor not one that has 100k plus on clock. I pointed out that lloyds motor only has 15k on clock, kind of went quiet then. He has taken the feedback on board and will be feeding it back to JOM.

Somehow I dont think I will be buying the JOM coilovers now. hmmm, the looking begins again.......

  • Author

Oh yeah, its defo not down to him, its something Joms end

But a £32 refund dont sort out the 6 x 8mm holes we have lol

Or regrow they jabba induction sheild chunk now missing ...... That i shall seek your skills with lol

But...... It is shiny :D

Shiny but ****e is better than ****e and not. I supose

Nice work Dave :)

Cheers Dave for your help on this one, I was thinking the same thing with the JOM coilys and anything else for that matter with JOM in the name. Shame really because it looks nice aswell. Im going to try and adjust my bonnet to fit it this weekend before i take Lloyd's gentle approach. :@ . Also I think its slighty catching my BOV, just out of interest how much did your relocation set up cost Lloyd55vrs?

  • Author

Um?? I cant think mare, i know i got it directly from forge when they started doing it

Then made it more expensive by buying another length of 25mm blue because the bit they gave me was long enough to curve where i wanted lol

Eek i may have been nuts and spent lots

Then a got a length of pipe extra :D

Madness

Cheers Lloyd, I have looked at this kit before it just seems abit pricey. Would you say its a worth while investment and is there any noticeble improvements? I understand the reason behind it but im also in the market for a TIP so not sure which to get first?? :think:

  • Author

Eeeerm ??? I'd say " it looks funky and blue"

I couldnt say much more , it just imo makes my engine bay look abit more than it really is

Then jabba gave me a red cone not blue oooooo dam them :D

  • Author

Everytime i think about that brace it bugs me :(

Are bonnets easy to adjust? Mine could do with coming forward abit i think ???

The bar wont go down anymore due to that black plastic square do-da thats by passenger side :(

So ****ed off :( ruined car for £32 and cut my bloody jabba panel

I dont supose theres anyone going to castle coombe thats good at panel

Alignment or something :(

That will be why the s3 brace is flatterned where its welded to strut top bits then to stop it catching on bonnet, learn something everyday

  • Author

The s3 have one fitted as stadard do they ?

Yeah and i have one on my vrs, fitted it when i fitted my coilovers

Lloyd im goin to try and raise my bonnet this weekend, a lad on here called "gnewbs" has got some picks of it done on his if you fancy going down that route. Yes the s3 brace would of been a better option but they are abit pricey and alot of people have got then. The idea of how different it looks caught my eye but it has caused a few problems i agree! :sweat:
