  8. Then I'll take you out for some hot laps when JC has done the parade laps with you lol
     
  9. Cheers peeps... I'm working on the 5th as I'm off this week due to a change but might pop over in the am possibly.
     
  10. Wanted to keep this hush but wanted to tell peeps aswell...

    couple of parts to add to my next modification, which will be a full matt wrap in grey with gloss black r alloys and trims. So will pretty much look like this...

    booked in for the 10th of November as the company doing it are booked up to then. Great company who are probably the best and this.
     
  11. Yessss will look smart mate!
     
  12. This will look really mean!!! Can't wait to see it
     
  13. Had a passenger side light out and a rear tail light and after searching for a bit I realised I'm gonna have to get at this fuse box under the bay. Was a nightmare job just for a fuse but it's sorted now.

    Well both of my outer nipples on my refurbed callipers seemed to be leaking despite being tight enough after a track day and wrecked one of my callipers (well I wasn't happy) so I have just picked up a passenger calliper to be refurbed along with genuine bleed nipples. Gavin sent me a bleed nipple from he's work and it's stopped the leaking.
    [​IMG]
    I also cleaned up the rear discs
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    And have the other 3 engine mounts to be fitted along with this calliper when it arrives and another brake fluid change

  14. Removed my decals front/back and sides :-(

  15. Superb looking car! Got my calipers also refurbed and waiting till i have some time around for fitting them, hopefully mine don't leak!
     
  16. What made you take the decals off fella?
     
  17. It's being wrapped chriss , matt grey I think
     
  18. Yup, getting it wrapped mate... UB is looking stunning lately though
     
  19. Few more little updates

    had some of my trims done in gloss black ready for my wrap in November. My r alloys are going gloss black Monday and then my wing mirrors and centre pillar trim are getting done gloss black too. Most of it was getting wrapped but a mate did the spraying cheap so I decided to have it sprayed.

    all mounts changed by diamond motors now too.

    diamonds not fitted yet

    It's immaculate :smile: some great attention to detail.

    Who did your dents? If you don't mind me asking.
     
  22. Cheers pal.... Dent Devils did my dents, my local guy is fantastic
     
  23. Looking forward to seeing this wrapped mate, I agree and think it will look awesome!
     
  24. Well had the wrap coming up a week now and yes I miss my paint but I also love the matte grey metallic wrap. I'll let the pics do the talking...

    That looks amazing! Such a nice colour.
     
  28. Looks really good, reminds me of a clio 200 raider
     
  29. Stu

    Stu

    That looks amazing!

    Looks like a quality job too, what with the door shuts etc all being wrapped too.
     
  30. Absolutly amazing. That is a top job, didnt realise they could do it all round the door shuts. I bet that wasnt a cheap job.

    Looks great though very envious
     
  31. Glen can't you get them to try and do the actual doors , got to be worth a try mate
     
  32. Daz

    Daz

    I fucking love that!

    Oooft I like, I like how neat the paint shield strips are too. So go on scare with me the cost of a wrap then!

    -Jamie- RSM Moderator

    Yes!

    That looks awesome! Similar colour to what i wanted to get mine done
     
  34. Truely awesome... And attention to detail is off the scale! Can í ask the cost? Also the gravel film kit where was that from and is it something that you can fit yourself??
     
  35. Thanks mate... It's from paint shield in Peterborough who fitted it for me but I'm sure they can send it out and fitting shouldnt be to hard.

    cost me £1800 inc double wrapping front bumper and a single wheel refurb
     
  36. Looks absolutely fantastic Glen, superb attention to detail, great work.

    Love the de-wipered rear window
     
  38. That's not a bad price at all!! Beats a full on respray thats for sure!! Cool í might contact them for the gravel protection when í get my cars bodywork sorted next spring... And maybe a front end kit if they have a fitter in london :smile:

    ...awesome work though Losi!!
     
  39. Cheers guys...

    No more blue interior now with new black flocking and new wheel
