Changed oils and filters today.
in the process I managed to crack the oilfilter housing a pit (stupid thing didnt come off easilly so i applied some force.)
Why must that piece made of plastic anyway???
It seems that it does not leak but im still worrying a bit.
Is there aluminium ones available?

What are these like when fitted?

Notice any difference?

they look good, plus you can open your windows a little bit without getting blown about in the cabin

only thing I found was that they didn't stop water dripping into the cabin if you had your window slightly open;

EG it's been raining & your roof has lots of beading...you get in the car, open the window.....set off driving...beads of water still drip into the cabin all over your door card :lol:

had a day off, so did a full valet today

2 bucket method wash, then played with my new toy.......a dual action polisher

did a full machine polish to remove some swirling I'd picked up, polished with Autoglym SRP, then applied Autoglym HD wax by hand to seal it

very impressed with the machine polisher

also went online and bought some poorboys black hole glaze
