[Jamie7]

Havnt updated in a long time , mainly because nothing has happened! Got my test 2 weeks today so hopefully that will change things!

Mainly just done the sticker on the petrol cap, the last picture is edited to see what it will look like with LED's and yellow fogs. Ive got the LED's, the yellow Lamin-x is on its way.

Please feel free to comment!

Cheers

Im loving driving! So upsetting how dirty it gets on cornish back roads :'(

 

[Jamie7]

Just some small updates...

Painted the middle of the S badge gloss black

Finally got around to getting the foglights yellow

New bulbs which are ment to give a more white look but im not convinced so just bought some which were recommended! (should come next week)

Bought a cupra looking exhaust tip which I need to get welded on. (and get the exhaust cut) - Will get a garage to do this!

 

[Jamie7]

Also, I bought a new arial but having trouble fitting it. Still cant seem to get the old one off? Any help?

To remove the aerial I think you unscrew it first as much as you can, then give it a forceful tug. It's an anti-theft aerial.

I thought I'd broke it when I pulled it off.

Car looks good so far mate, keep safe and don't crash my fellow young'un have a few mates who have had accidents and it's made their lives hell!

[Jamie7]

Cheers guys!

Will do thanks!

Recently someone at my college managed to roll his renault twingo 11 plate... on a straight road in college! Was basically down to the fact he was going to fast and clipped the curve. He had 3 girls in the car :/ All of them got out safe though which is very lucky!

Little article and picture of this:

What a muppet! I'd feel awful if I crashed (due to my own stupidity) with mates in the car!

Was a lease car as well, pretty sure it was a write off! He has to do an extended driving test but even if he passes that, I wouldnt want to face the insurers haha

[Jamie7]

So went to the dealer today to get the rear screen wash fixed (wasnt working). A hole was in the line and luckily the hole was in the boot lining so was a quick, free fix!

Also while I was there I treated myself to ordering an LCR front splitter! Should be able to pick it up on friday.

Very sketchy with how to fit it though, Ive read all the guides but Im still confused on it. Dont want to hurt the car / splitter!

 

[Jamie7]

So I got the splitter today, very confused on how to fit it. Do the screws just go into the bumper underneath or is there any pre-made holes?

Anyone in cornwall (preferably around truro) want to help me out? (I will come to you dont worry)

Cheers

I know its a mk3, but this is how I fitted mine. Self tappers through the splitter in to the bumper.

Reading that crash article, a similar thing happened round here. Young lad in a corsa full of kids crashed into a wall, killing the male passenger. Turned out he was drunk.
