    I've lost the DKR picture I made :worried:

    Looks awesome with the xenons on!
     
  6. Looking good!!
    Don't worry about that, I bought a cheap hid kit (slim) and the n/s one flickers too. You can only see it from inside the car though looking from the outside you cant see it. :smile:

    A new car?
     
  10. Spent 3-4 hours cleaning it,

    Snow foam + pressure washed
    Combination of Tardis and IronX, even some WD40.
    Then a number of areas polished with SRP having found some odd scratches luckily just in the clear coat.
    RainX on all windows/glass exteriors
    Waxed and buffed.

    Inside hoovered front to back.

    Bloody knackered now :smiley:
     
  11. Yar, 265, wanted one for aaages!
     
  12. filled mine up today ready for the long drive to north devon to have short shift fitted! cant wait for it to feel like a car instead of a bus!
     
  13. So had the short shif fitted today and it amazing! Car now feels like a renault sport should!
     
  14. Finally setup my scangauge and washed her

    rich
     
  15. I have taken both my onside wheels off as I got a can stuck in the wheel arch last night at 70mph and it was making a horrendous noise, luckily it hasn't done any damage
     
  16. Tis very good!

    I drilled the tabs on the inside arches to cable tie the bumper together to stop the bloody thing poking out on the sides!! Then washed :smile:.
     

  17. i need to do this to my bumper too. driving me mad it the front popping out everytime i drive it! was thinking of taking the arch linner off and getting in from behind.

    Well cleaned it up and tried to get the bumper back into place. This is the best I can do without cable ties. Will nick some from work tomorrow. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1376312826.847957.jpg

    Could have been worse, you're right. The corsa that was in front of me wouldn't have been lucky. I got a badger in a corsa once and it bent the rad back onto the exhaust mani which melted the fan and caused the engine to nearly over heat.
     
  26. I've dropped my car off at BTM this morning, waiting Fred to give me a call :wink:
     
  27. Instal Forge DV valve and a rear brace Bar
