Angry Screens Gone!

Just cleaned the car. Popped up the road. Damn stones. Now booked in for a replacement screen Tuesday morning. £50 excess.

Hope it holds out until then???

Car has now been clayed, polished, and sealed ready for next week. Hoping to get away with a quick wash and seal next Friday. Cannot say enough good things about the Blackfire products. And Polished Bliss are really good as well. I can see these being the Powerstation for cleaning products bleeding us of money. Have a good weekend everyone.

Can't go tomorrow, im working

I've fitted some Rainbow 6.5" components, sound really good, bit of a nightmare to fit as they are 63mm deep so need quite thick mdf spacers to clear the windows.

Gutted Dean. Just looking at your RR Graph as well to laminate.

RAC just turned up with a new rear view mirror. So all sorted now.

Bring on the Fest!

Default And now....

I'm gonna do a WIDE and get rid of the car this week. (not really)

Managed to get back in a straight line and onto the hard shoulder when the NSR decided to go pop on the M4. Well there is £130 gone.
Drove to Soton on a skinny tyre. Rims are OK though. Shame as it was in good nick. Another Re050 to go on in the morning. THen what to have for the fronts for the summer? Proxy 555's or RE070 or Toyos or Good Years? Hmmm. Answers please Gentlemen.
