Rich, did you have a guide when you fitted your honeycomb grills, or is it pretty self explanatory. Have I got to cut the old ones off and slot the new ones in, or is there more to it?

I only used RDS's guide mate but I can't find the post on his thread. The body shop did mine while it was getting painted, but it is just the case of cutting the slats off and sticking the honeycombe on.
 
Finally got rid of my god forsaken CM upper intercooler hoses for some new proper Forge ones. Expensive for just two pipes but the quality is miles better.

Only one photo at the moment but will get loads at Players on sunday :D

Cheers mate I appreciate that comment. Kit I used doesn't exist no more but search for something similar to this:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Planet-Polish-Piece-All-Metal-Polishing/dp/B0036KMF5Y

Be prepared for a lot of work though as its not a 5 minute job. A lot of time and money and yours will be like mine eventually. Not a cheap hobby at all :(

Players is right near here... CM16 6AR
 
Richy, the CM hoses you have recently changed are these creation Motorsport? What was wrong with them? Have you noticed any benefits using the forge ones over these?

They are indeed mate, they needed trimming for them to fit properly. I had to put one of the originals back on because it didn't fit at all. Also the quality of the Forge ones are much better, CM's were very thin :confused: Their Turbo intake pipe though is very good.

I see, you noticed any difference in the car itself I.e spool up etc?

Realise who's car it was now. Looked like it had done 15000 miles. Very clean car.
I was the black LCR parked behind you.

Ah man so sorry I didn't stop and talk to you, turned up late and had so many people to talk to it was unreal. Thanks for comment though, its not bad for 84k and a daily car. Couldn't believe how clean yours was, black looks so nice!
Next meet we will have to talk...
