  1. when people are talking about 'better' tyres do you mean quality or tread? I could understand having sticker tyres on the rear, but with 4 tyres of the same type would put the higher tread on the driving wheels as they wear quicker?
  2. A quality one liner from you as usual :lol: There's no room for any 19 year olds in your garage though! Hmm.. that line sounds somewhat familiar.. :wave:
  3. Sorry strips have gone. i take it as they havent sold through your for sale thread they sold to the guy above. i guess thats the downside of the no pm rule.. people can butt in on your thread. how disappointing.
  4. I'll take the side strips.. Will re payment.. Bumper could be ok but pics would be helpful to get an idea how much work.. Bump for other parts needed!
  5. I watched 12 Rounds at work the other day.. I saw it had 'John Cena' from WWE in it and thought the worst. It actually wasn't half as bad as I thought, not quite sure i could recommend it, but if you're at work being paid then it could be worse! 5.5/10
  6. my favourite design feature is the water storage facility in the roof rails. This means if you have the windows slightly open whilst driving water can trickle or pour onto all your doorcard electrics. The Babber cake will from now on be expected at any meets/shows you plan to attend.
  7. The 5 channel wont fit in the amp rack, even if you extend it its too long to fit on the side of a rado boot.. get a profile 4 and ditch the rears. 100% best option.
  8. as above you need a 5 or 6 channel amp. you can bridge 2 channels of a 6 channel to run the sub from or you can run a genesis profile 5, which has 2 front, 2 rear and a sub out.. I have one of these and its a great all rounder. i'd steer clear of running 2 amps if you can help it.. the option of ditching the rears and bridging 2 channels of a 4 channel would be a good one.. the other 2 will run your fronts..
  9. At the moment my daily has the lock barrels missing from the doors, no remote locking or alarm. Currently I have to access the car through the boot everyday! I have three options: 1. Buy replacement lock barrels & retumble them 2. Buy delocked handles and fit remote locking 3. Buy delocked handles and fit an alarm including remote locking bearing in mind the car is supposed to be a cheap daily option 1 seems the cheapest and most logical, but if there were a lot of votes for fitting a remote & delocked handles it may be a good idea.. Option 4 is keep climbing through the boot and spend the money on Ham, but I would like to do one of the first 3 ideally..

  11. rip out grill pull cable - drivers side buy new grill
  12. im planning on popping down to that.. will say hello if i see you
  13. They did a 195/40 on a 9x17 for me.. I think if you just went in and asked they'd probably turn you away, but I could arrange it as I know them pretty well..
  14. I use a place called Brunel tyres in Bristol.. Do you know it? :lol:
  15. Woah! Check you out returning from the depths!!
  16. shame you're having to sell bud, looked like it was coming along nicely! is it not possible you could get the engine in and running? would be a lot more attractive to a potential buyer to know everything works as it should.
  17. Cheers.. it's coming along, but wont be cleaned in this weather! That pic was taken on Pembroke Rd in Clifton.
  18. Hi, I am after the following please: Bits I need urgently: Late Aqua Blue wings - Both sides, but passengers more important.. must be VGC [could be other colour if immaculate] Bits that can wait: Early Beige leather door cards.. must be VGC Late Aqua Blue rear bumper.. must be VGC Late Aqua Blue front bumper.. must be VGC Black parcel shelf - uncut Late heater controls in perfect condition I am on a very tight budget with the car as it's a daily, so no silly suggestions price wise please! Many thanks, Baz
  19. have been thinking of doing this too.. the daily i've bought currently has no alarm or door locks! weighing up options of fitting de locked handles & an alarm with central locking or fitting handles with locks and tumbling them.. just not sure what's the best option at the moment..
