Adam's Red Mk4 Ibiza

[Whitechapel]

i looked on the milltek website and couldn't find one for the 1.4

been told the FR exhaust will fit though, so will probably do this.


Hopefully it won't hurt too much on insurance

i have the old standard exhaust from my Fr...only been on the car for about 6k....thats a twin exit tail pipe....looks pretty nice

look at a facelift Fr with a standard exhaust thats what i have, if your interested

 

[Whitechapel]

blah

 

[Whitechapel]

Taking into garage first thing tomorrow yay!

 

[markmeus]

Awww gutten for you, at least it looks like it's just the front bumper and bonnet.

 

[Whitechapel]

new headlights as well

 

[knight85]

ohhh jeez....looks like quite a big little shunt...wrote my first car off like that ...

how much you been quoted?

 

[Whitechapel]

too much

Nah, i'm happy with the price in such a way that going through insurance would cost me a lot more in the long run. Just a shame they will have it for two weeks as they cannot get parts through to the garage

 

[Whitechapel]

Oh how i love public transport

 

[stezo2k]

could be worse i spose, ive seen much worse. least it doesnt look that bad

Pain the not having my car!

anyone got cheap ICE or exterior mods i can get on with when i get her back?

maybe debaged grill?

 

[Whitechapel]

also, while its getting fixed, do you think i should ask the guy to spray the grill and wing mirrors gloss black? or buy seperate?

 

[Whitechapel]

Just spoke to the guy at the garage, should be back any day soon
going to give it a good cleaning session, seen people using like a waxy putty?! anyone know what this is and were i can get it from? seems to give good results...

Sorry to hear about the car mate!!! Always the same, at least your OK! There are loads of waxes out there, some work better on red than others... What you after spending?

 

[Whitechapel]

I don't mind spending on a good brand as long as it gives good results!

and i can use it more than once haha

That would be clay bar? Use after a wash to lift all the contaminents off the paint, like sap and tar.

 

[Whitechapel]

What can i use after washing to make the paint blind people with how shiny it is

Red does look amazing when it's at its cleanest of course

 

[Whitechapel]

Just drove home

They've done an amazing job, one small glitch though, i'll upload pictures tomorrow and see if you can spot it

 

[Whitechapel]
