Luciel,

Glad to see that you took my advice and had a look at fiatforum! glad you like the KnN and it looks like you managed to fit the steering wheel well...... Did you put the peco exhaust on?

Like the wheels and for the price they are fantastic!

Glad to see that my old mods are being put to good use on your car.... I will post a pic of my MK2 with her new 17"'s on...... you only saw her with the standard hub caps lol....

Car looks great!

ps. have you passed your test yet?

HEEEY KEVIN!!!!

Yeah i passed my test a few days ago, i should post some newer picks on, got some nice bumpers on (colour coded), the only thing i couldnt put on was the exhaust as everywhere say it needs cutting a bit off the exhaust then welding it on and bla bla bla aniways they all want something like 80 quid for "the time it takes"

oo just noticed you got 5 door, i have here a full set of lazer cut tints for a 5 door, light smoke front dark smoke rear, cost me £60 but i never got around th fitting them before car was sold, they still in the tube i bought them in, want to buy them for half what i paid?

I highly recommend a straight-thru cat replacement exhaust section and a 40mm Tricker throttle body conversion

[Luciel]

what kind are they? cut em to size and stick kind?

i know they are lazer cut and you just need to stick them on, but can be a right pain to fit and get no air bubbles, and if you do it wrong you have to buy another complete kit.

If you try to fit it make a video, i wanna giggle at all the air bubbles! !

I got my tints done for £120, and guarantted as rest are. good price and amazing look, rawr

 

[Luciel]

yeah im kinda having second thoughs cos of that...

Sunstrip was alredy reaaally hard cos of trying not to get bubles, i can't imagine doing the windows >.<

 

[Gary]

Best bet is squirt some washing up liquid onto windows first
This helps you slide the film into place, then force the liquid to the edges using the applicator

Not an easy job, but when done well it looks the dogs b****ocks

 

[Luciel]

well that's what i did with the flame vynils and it was fecking hard

i agree. washing up liquid is a detergent. it takes grease, wax and oil off everything and shouldnt be used for anything on a car especially paintwork. Use lots of warm water. they do an additive at halfords if you feel its necessary to use it hats quite good, but its not a detergent. come on washing up liquid is for dishes!

Yes but it keeps my hands nice and soft as well
