thinking of colour coding my wing mirrors to the colour of the refurbed alloys? what you reckon?

my car is silver so already has the silver FR wing mirrors?

is it best to just buy new FR wing mirror covers and get the sprayed?

I sprayed my FR mirror covers mate! They easily pop off (from hinge end first). Sanded them down a bit, 3 coast of primer and the same for paint. Easy peasy!

Darker for both! I thought you were going to get them done at the same time?

oh i thought you meant get the wing mirrors darker...

yea i prob will, but if they are going to charge stupid amounts then i will look at other options. But the problem if i do it myself will be the colour matching.

yea i have seen that group buy for the FMIC...looks good, i may get involved but need to do some research

well just moved out, used to live in south bucks...around j18 of m25..just on outskirts of london...but moved about 10 miles further north now. The london meets are always south london which is bit far...i'm member on a local forum too so ill see if they are meeting soon!

so far my list

Fit boost gauge(tonight)
alloy refurb (next week)
RARB
312mm brakes
milltek downpipe and decat (then its only FMIC and i could go stage 2)

I better catch up and my calipers and pads sorted then. I need to do more research on that too, just feel if I don't get it at that price I prob never will ever get it that cheap again, how I felt about the Milltek deal. Do we need the down pipe for stage 2 then, damn!
You forgot clutch thou!
