Yea pal, previous pick showed them in gloss, it was very simple to do. As long as theres no damage to the wheels to start with then just remove them, clean inside and out, paint inside then outside(face) and use about 5 coats. 4 cans is more than enough!!

Carbon dash inspired by Lloydvrs! Nice cheap mod, massive pain to do tho and when finished was tempted to go crasy and carbon everything!

Few pic's from a few months back when one of my front springs snapped, bring on the Koni change over. Whilst changing the springs at work I decided to change the droplinks and track rod ends due to age and the fact I had to cut the originals off. Just with the Koni springs I noticed a big improvement in the stiffness and alot less body roll. Just had to be abit more gentle on the bumps!

Ok today I managed to get alot sorted. First up i got my exhaust twisted and pulled back up towards the rear bumper as it was sitting well to low.

Second I plucked up the currage to fit my rear parking sensors, drilling the holes was very scary but so happy with the final result.

Oh also took it for a mot a flew threw again with no advisory's:D

Well been very busy a testing couple of months, after grabbing a set of Audi alloys I decided to treat myself to a quick shift from creation Motorsport. Just when everything seem to be going well I got wrestling style beating from that S.O.B life, first whilst testing the Audi wheels one of them go's pop whilst on the way to work. Next was almost the finishing move in the form of confirmation that my oil seals had gone on my turbo :( I wasn't out for the count tho, first I decided to purchase a brand new ko3s prime for hybrid in the future (maybe). Next I got a new TIP from creations to fit at the same time. Finally I took the car to R-tech in Hinckley and they fitted all for me, £900 later all is sorted, happy days....sort off.

Spotted a offer I couldn't refuse before crimbo in the shape of a forge front mount so after selling my soul to the devil for some extra cash and telling everyone it was a crimbo I brought it off someone who was breaking a octy. Luckily the crash bar was already cut to shape and pipe work was already in place, so nice easy job.

-First cut some of the original plastic to allow pipework,

-Strip light and original bumper off,

-strip standard intercooler off,

-Get brother in law to help lift forge and crash bar into place,

-Put back together and cut abit off plastic on the left bumper vent as it digs into bottom pipe,

-Finally buy brother in law a bulmers!!

Cheers pal, I was meaning to get it booked in for a stage 2 but iv had trouble with the mr's Ibiza which im going to be paying towards here new coilovers. It gives me abit more time to do the secondary air delete ect. After being inspired by your amazing induction noise I decided to strip my Pipercross Venom case down so its a open filter and it sound's "WICKED" ha. I will try and take a pic later.

p.s. Cheers for the bluetooth sender it works really well i'v just got to adjust it abit so its not showing 30psi boost :)
