Mate, I'm In Love With Your Car! truly is amazing!

Was Going to wrap mine in the summer matte white!

 

[Mike R]

Lol thanks a lot ..

Do it mate, just make sure you keep it clean

More rear spacers ordered today, so ill have a wider set for shows and a set for daily use, ( Yes im cheating ) and floor mats that will be getting some treatment at the trimmers, they will be for shows

 

[imran92]

i'm goin to try and keep it clean, knowing me (attention seeker) i'll need to do something special lol

and just a quick question, you know how your rear wheels are slanted (sorry, I'm a newbie and a bit thick, I'm pretty sure its called camber?) well, how do you get them like that? I've got a 2002 leon TDi 110bhp

cheers

 

[Mike R]

The rears naturally sit like that mate, because there wide and its low they will camber in by themselves.. if you run a narrower wheel you will get a little if your low but not as much as if you run a 9.5" rear like me... Or you can get camber shims that fit behind your hub and they will give you it

Another thing ive been looking at doin... Changing my steering wheel, the money ill get for my 225 wheel i could spend on another just purely cos i want a change...

I know a few people have changed theres, does anyone run an aftermarket one with a aftermarket boos, im lookin at snap off kits

Dan (Murdered LCR) runs an aftermarket wheel I'm sure mate...

 

[Mike R]

Ill have a butch! ideally i want a momo team but a 300mm maybe, as a 280 only suits small cars imo.. And yes i know its a scene wheel, but who cares

Amazing car, and your attention to detail is awesome. Have to say the paint finish is flawless. I used to paint, so i know the various processes...however i will never paint my own as (like you) im a bit of a perfectionist and i will never nail the finish lol.

Dont think i could sell it after the amount of work gone into it....

Thanks a lot mate, lots of little touches to come yet hopefully.. Im lucky to have a good mate in the paint trade and we all get stuck in and make things happen ...

new steering wheels getting ordered this week when i get rid of my 225 one..

And Car goes off tomorrow to have the front end stripped, and the roof/spoiler painted... thatl keep me busy for a week or 2 , cant wait to start using it again
