lol
i guess its a universal approach in the weather, it gets us too.
we just wash the car, all clean and good looking and Bam! the rain clouds
its been raining this morning as well.
i got a pic that i took in the morning, but you cant even make out the carbon morrors due to the weather and the lack of lighting, will wait for a bright sunny day and take some snaps

Haha that picture reminds me of the eye lashes you can get for headlights now
you tried looking for fly-eye?
iv just thought, can someone not send them over to you from here, or is postage too much?

it does look like eyelashes lolno i havent looked at fly-eye, thought it would be better using red vinyl.
great idea having it sent from there bro, however the postage would be alot, i will probably experiment and play around with some stuff, kinda a diy thing, something unique
i think my punto is the only one so far being pimped out slowly by me in durban
i havent seen any other one like mine, every other one is standard and like i mentioned there are so few, even lucky if you do manage to see one
i still have other places to carbon fibre, just running low on carbon at the moment... need some stock.
i didnt mention, after i got my car back from the dealership it still has that shudder, so i complained and this time i told them that there should be no excuses and all four tyres need to be changed. hopefully that sorts the problem. should get get it back by tomorrow, they should pick up later in the day and drop off tomorrow.
tired of this run around.
so tell me. did it end up raining yesterday ?
by fly-eye I meant so your headlights look like this..
what else you wanting to carbon??
as for the shudder, is it just the wheels unbalanced or something else?
and yes it did rain haha!! on and off all day. cant wash car until friday now as its dark by the time I get home

LOL you call that fly-eye but we have a brand called LamenX they come in different colours and shades, they are very similar to a sheet of window tint,probably the micron of LamenX is higher.
we get them from R100 - R150 per metre , i can get it for R70 p/m as i know the dude that sells them, infact 1 meter would be too much, but i would like to LamenX the front lights and the rear lights
well i was thinking of using carbon fibre on the edging of my rear lights, will photoshop a pic and show you what im speaking of.
also want to carbonfibre the inner door card, the area that is blue, wanna try and cover that up,also around the plastic triming that houses my Head Unit.
initially it was seen as a balancing issue, i also thought so, so it was booked and balanced, the shudder was still there, booked again and they re balanced at a different place, the problem was still there so i complained and made an issue of it and then was told its probably flat spots due to the time the car stood warehoused and shipped and then warehoused in our country for sale, car was booked and a tyre rep checked and they did a high speed balancing as well as deflated the tyres as they said that was the fault, saturday i worked and used the car and the problem was still there, so no nonsense approach this time an i wanted brand new tyres which they will do for me.
LOL the rain is unpredictable
bro it happen here aswell...universal
me too, have to wait for the weekend to wash as its too dark and late, i dont use my car daily, just now and again but mostly on the weekend, do you use your car to work?
is the attachment you car?

LOL i see you make the most of the vehicle i have the long weekend ahead, friday is a public holiday as wll as the following tuesday, so i have taken a day off on monday to have a long weekend, so i will have alot off time to play around only when my nephew falls asleep
my sister will be coming down from Johannesburg ( 6hours drive ) to durban so i would be busy with the lil guy
but will upload what ever i do. i managed to source a remote for my Head Unit, i spoke to the dealership and asked them to check with the clerk that installed the Units as i know its a standard accessory that come sealed with the units. the dealership had sourced me one, infact that actually needed to below to me
plus i placed a local advert stating the model of the remote im looking for, a guy contacted me and after speaking to him he decided to let me have that for free, since im getting one i will let him know that i have managed to get one and he could probably give it to someone else that might need it. no use me having two remotes. unless i MOD it to the front passenger side door handle
probably do that lets see what happens but the first MOD will be on my side, just need some planning now
ah thats brill mate!
I wouldnt put one on the other side!! imagine when you have passengers, could be fun lol!
sorted reg plate out today at 6:30 AM haha, it fell off last night and had to put it on before work

well its just my wife and i 90% of the time, atleast she benifits.i cool with any passenger changing music but people that i do give a lift too dont do that even after telling them to change the music to their preference
but that audio control is for a later stage, will focus more on the main one.i take it your vinyl couldnt hold on too it any longer mate. by the way i thought the vinyl was a temp kinda thing, i guess this was your reminder 
haha it was supposed to be temporarary, but its one of those things that just get left until it happens again haha!!
dont think iv ever seen a GP with black bonnet :O
