Nice looking car you got there mate, best colour too :lol:

If your looking for inspiration as to what can be done take a look at either my readers ride thread linked below or Knight85's readers ride thread as they're the same colour.

Haha, I bet the dealer you bought it off was a bit cheesed off.

Car looks very nice matey and in contrast to everyone else I actually like the FR badges haha xD
Hopefully I'll have a splitter and some FR front grilles to fit before this Lincoln meet goes ahead, so I can actually claim that I've done something more than put some stickers and seat covers on

Love those alloys btw.

Cheers pal, I have took the badges off now, it was only a short-term thing haha.

I spent about a week choosing the alloys and I'm glad I chose these

It's been a nice day today so i got some pictures done.

Here is a picture of my de-badged grille and my new number plate.

Finally got my sticker on. :funk:

My strut brace came in the post.

I have read the first page of this readers ride.

now have sore ribs and wet boxers from laughing at some of the comments.

as previously mentioned, a shame you've got off on the wrong foot with a couple of the laaaaads! but still. nice car hope you enjoy the forum!

Zlash_eX · Apr 12, 2011

Tom the car looks gorgeous mate, love that new plate as well.
Strut brace looks very nice, what does it actually do? Reduce body roll?
Also a word of warning about the sticker - if it's external, careful when washing the car because mine came off with one swipe of a sponge, so I now have a couple of internal ones.

Like the colour of the car too matey!

how soon after applying your sticker did you wash it? you're meant to leave it 24 hours to let the adhesive cure

Zlash_eX · Apr 12, 2011

About 3 days mate, but I did apply it in cold & windy conditions, whereas you're supposed to in a good warm temperature. It was freezing when I did mine.

Hopefully yours will stay on - let me know if it falls off lol

Yeah the strut brace reduces body roll.

I got a genuine SeatSport strut brace for sale, never been used. It's red with SeatSport logo on it.

I'll bring it along with me to the lincoln meet if you want to buy it. I bought it for £70 so make your offer. :funk:

Yeah thought it did. Can you feel an improvement in handling at all? When did you buy it matey?

knackerdecobre · Apr 13, 2011

For your info, a strut brace does not reduce body roll, it decreases body/chassis flex
