Cheers mate, I saw your car parked up by the arcade on the way in and think i drove past you once.. Just recognised your plate

 

[drka-drka]

haha yes!!!! i cant wait too see that.lol

Like the thread title...minty fresh in there

 

[Mike R]

Minty fresh in there just for you! Haha..

And no Im not painting the car pink... Its staying white but getting redone... Now would be a good time to add a few changes tho, but well see.

 

[drka-drka]

Good man.

Changes? thought it looked pretty mint as it was, freshen up is always good

 

[Mike R]

As i probably said Its getting resprayed again as not entirely happy with it, hence i havent been to shows with it yet.. Dont think im gonna have the time or money to do everything at once ready for USC and E38 etc etc... So the changes can wait till next year and see what happens if i decide to keep it for one more year...

 

[Mike R]

Dropped the car off today.. Boot will be smoothed this time, sideskirt fixed as i cracked it a little.. And another full repsray.. Progress pics soon!

 

[leons_ leon]

Thanks mate.. Yeh it sure gets a lot of attention and compliments.. Makes all the stress and hard work worth it.

 

[Mike R]

Couple of questions..

1- Who has replaced all silicon hoses in the engine bay on a lcr.. Im looking to get the full sfs range, cos they come in green ( 10 coolant ones, induction, 2 upper boost, 2 brake servo ones and whatever else ).. but i have no idea wether you even see half of them, as im mostly doing it for cosmetic reasons

2 - what wax/polish do people recommend for a white or light colour cars, i get mine back from bodyshop in couple weeks and want to keep it mint

Thankyou muchly

That was what i used for my 207 in white and it came out nice, polishes it dont really matter but for wax....Dodo Juice do some colour specific waxs and so on, but i used that blackfire stuff and it came up nice, had a bit of a wet look in the sun
