I went to college with Gary, Roger and Justina who used to work there, not sure if there still there tho.
I'll have a word when i go in. Just spoke to my mate, he says if i request it they'll pop it in the car for me.
Would this be a little project for yourself by any chance? Lol i'll do you a deal...... my bumper as payment for the CTS

Done.......I'll sort your N249 bypass out to if you want, I think I even have the stuff to do it
You've got yourself a deal right there mate!!! I've got the stuff for it so don't worry about that..... the joys of working for a hydraulics company! If you ever need any brass tee's, let me know!
Well it's been a while since i updated this and despite my best effrots to save and not modify my car i've failed slightly (although most of the bits i bought before the incident last month).
Latest modifications are some new sidelights, the previous ones courtesy of Danny were great, but just a little too green for my liking so i went with some 4 LED ones..... which despite being white look very blue with my camera lol!
On the same lines i thought i'd get a better picture of my previously fitted HID's.
And my boot lighting.... with added boot clutter lol!
And the latest endeavour of some ambient footwell lighting. The colour choice is a bit odd i realise but in time most of it will be blue so bare with me.
Now i just need to get my exhaust fitted and finish some maintenance and all will be good.

Alright mate, have you got your car fixed yet? Looking very Fast and Furious by the way reminds me of my escort just need a few tv's in there and 2 12" sub woofers.

Yeah it's all fixed mate, runnig like a dream now.
Well i think this deserves an update, i haven't had much time for pictures lately but i'll take some tomorrow night i think. Just a few mods though, the most noteable being my Supersprint Cat-back exhaust!
Quiet as anything! But a real pleasurable addition to the car. It feels a little more responsive and has a nice burble on tickover.
I've also replaced the green panel filter and smoothed airbox for a universal cone filter (one of the heatshielded ones, probably from halfrauds lol!) and a custom made aluminium heatshield to keep that engine heat a little more at bay. Coupled with a partial cold feed it meant i got a quite goot time at Santa Pod Ultimate Street Car last weekend:
1/4 Mile - 15.333 seconds @ 89mph.
More mods to come soon, stay tuned!

Lauch at about 3000-3500, and you don't need TC at Pod, the track is WELL sticky icky icky! I must confess i had all my back seats out and my spare wheel too.... lol i can't believe how much they weigh! I must have shed about 70Kg!!!
Thanks buddy, how's the Gezmobile coming on?

It's getting there, got some grooved brake discs (front) to fit, but its all gone quiet on the modding front really, some maintenance is in order first
Phoenix's Project Blueshift...
Well the name 'Project Darkside' was originally aimed at the idea of getting a PD150 and 'stealthing' it but as i got a Cupra my colour scheme kinda changed, so.....
Behold...... Project Blueshift!
A better idea i think.... a black base with blue detailing.
Thanks for the comments though, it's nice to see i'm doing something right lol!
Gez, i have to agree with the maintenance, and as well with going quiet on the modding front...... i really should concentrate on paying the car off, once that's done there's a serious issue to be sorted.....
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP!

Right then, after a little exchange of products with Mr Adam 20vT last night i now have a bigger cone and cold air feed pipe! What a pain it was to install but the end result i think looks okay, and sounds even more louder than it did before lol!
Before with my ghey universal cone and custom aluminium heat shield:
After with the new piping:
The performance is there and even after a hard run that pipe is still cold as ice! I love it! Cheers Mr Adam!
Oh and a close-up of the exhaust too:
Now to fit my puddle lights..... then what next? Lol!

It has mate, but to go with the 'theme' of the car i'm doing a complete internal light conversion to BLUE.
I got the bulbs through the other day, i'll fit them next week. Then i need to save for those big power mod's!
