Growing on me now. each to there own,looks like some halfords tat. getting them bonded/colour coding may be the answer Carbon fibre never colour codes that well! And it won't help them being right at the front as they are! By the time you've levelled out the weave you'd have a lot of product on, so by the time they are painted lacquered the paint would be brittle due to depth of product so they would stone chip like mad! sive s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's already got a few carbon mods on the car. Always preferred the look. Got csl carbon diffusser on the rear bumper. Same as the front and side grills.

sive s Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 I love carbon! High quality carbon with the gold weave looks amazing! Cheap carbon looks nasty! Same here. Trying to find some carbon parts for the engine bay. Might have ago at laminating some parts(using epoxy resin glue with the weave.). I remember someone doing it on the forum.

Have to agree with this. As the car becomes impractical as a daily car. Might need to raise the fronts a bit and the rears. The jack point are catching on speed bumps. Pisstake.

BmEagle Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) Fitted new trip reset pin (thanks to Gaszman) so have a working one after two years being without one. I can now use the hidden obc menu too. Edited January 2, 2015 by BmEagle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sive s Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) Getting the diff oil replaced. Hopefully the grinding noise will be gone. Was gonna get it done myself. But being lazy. Only costing me 40 quid labour. Already bought the diff oil. Need to get the speed sensor fitted. This is causing errors on the dash board( Christmas lights from the dsc and tire light). Should get that done tomorrow. Might as well clean the inside of the car too. Headunit and subs are coming out. Getting annoyed with that silly sub. Too big for my liking.
