Wow, that shine! Definitely worth the effort

Thanks

nothing wrong with being picky

think i might have to get a touch up pen, just reminded me iv got tons of chips on mybonnet aswell. Oh and chips where I took the door protectors off.

Just getting round to it :bang:

stuff it, might go into halfords on way home and get some touch up paint. They do custom mixes too but last time they tried my paint code it came out purple...

 

[Sean23491]

Not good purple is just slightly off colour

Ive got a Fiat Original one with mine that I got Evans Halshaw to buy me when I first bought the car so mines all good might do it this weekend when I clean the car again.

 

[AgnessGP]

looks like ill have to go for ' FORD colorado red' like my door handles lol.

 

[Sean23491]

Seems to match your colour very well though Might have to do the touch up on the bonnet now because ive cleaned it they stand out more

 

[Sean23491]

Not much of an update just a small one

Got touch up paint to do the stone chips on the bonnet, heard that using a tootpick to apply is better than using the brush?

 

[AgnessGP]

YES!!!!!

definately.

I tried using a brush and for chips, its impossible to get the small ones without over touching up and making it look worse

 

[Sean23491]

Will have to get on and raid the kitchen cupboards then hows the exhaust going now then sam? Know you were looking for an original.

 

[AgnessGP]

stuck with the custom one just got my old manifold back on good decision i think. Amazing how much quieter it is with a cat manifold :O

 

[Sean23491]

Do you prefer it with a cat manifold?

Ive emailed Exhaust UK other day and they gave me a price of £185 for back box and £345 for cat-back exhaust might think about it for next year after christmas

Update:

Just had a new delivery this morning something which I have been looking for a long time



So I have spent this morning cutting the hanger to size and putting the official BMC CDA bracket on aswell. I was just using tie wraps as a temporary fix until I could get my hands on one of these.

Before:


After:


Really happy with the result makes it look alot better aswell as being functional!

 

[SJB1985]

Yeh mate it does look better and looks a hell of a lot more secure now also!

Nice work mate.

Regards

Stephen

 

[Sean23491]

Thanks, Like I said it took me ages to find a bracket big enough tried a motorcycle exhaust hanger but it wasnt big enough so had to keep looking for the official hanger but really hard to gte hold of
