afaik winscreen cover covers all windows. well mine has done for the past 2 windows ive needed that havent been windscreens. first one i put some new speakers and and one of the screws was a tad too long. *winds window down* BANG no more window. uhho. and the other someone decided they didnt liek me and put it thru with as spark plug end. only cost me the excess for the windscreen. same again for the 2 windscreens i have had. corrado has 2 stonechips on the windscreen,n i dont think ill have em repaired. prolly wait until it needs a new screen. i hate the repair stuff looks like bird s**t on the windscreen.
-
yup thats the stuff i tried. but they have a totally different texture to what the pieces on the rear panels and the really small bits on the front wings have. its like they have been smoothed down. all the tiny bumper bobbles have gone and its smooth.
-
the plastic trim on the doors only has gone all pants and faded. the pieces on the rear quaters loks all bobbely nd shiney but the bits on the doors look all smooth and faded. ive tried the megs trim wax and tyre sh ine but nothing seems to put the colour back into it, is it gonna be spray em up or get new pieces or can they be fixed. im stumped lol
-

very nice mate. love the colour and the paintjob looks really well done! still not sure on the rubstrip idea but its growing on me. like its been said be careful parking in tesco! :) -
worrying thing is. they charge £9-99+ for a single H4 Bulb, (we retail at £5-99) can get em alot cheaper i know! then they charge £5-99 to fit! the cheek! they usually managed to balls summot up aswell :? some of the abortions i have seen come from there are shocking! :scratch:

ok ive used the search and it didnt come up with what i wanted to know. wanting to do an oil change on the VR and ive reade about the Silkolene 10/50. ive been looking through the service history and it says its been changed using Maxlife and the valvoline website (making up a zipcode cause its all US) recommends this. Castrol Site recommends Castrol EDGE which is 5-30 BUT the Comma Book we have at work recommends 10/40 semi. arg, dunno what to put in, considering its done 136k now im thinking more along the lines of either the silkolene. i dunno tho, i suually go by whats recommended but when so much differnece is recommended i duno what to do - also by the time i have wrote this i appear to have broken the search engine on my pc so cant do any more! :D lol Thanks for any help guys. also if you can recommend any can you think of somewhere to buy it at a decent price :)

had a week off last week so managed to get loads done to the car that ive wanted to do for ages! took wheels off washed & sealed them with chemical guys wheel sealant - highly recomended its nice! i made a false floor for the boot then had to cut it into 2 to get it in. used the original boot carpet and mounted my active sub and amp for my speakers into it. painted my calipers black whilst i had the wheels off gave the car a proper good cleaning over with the dodo juice :D and all the rest of the time it rained so i played GTA4 and am very close to completing all the missions now :D also i fitted my BMC CDA ( given that was the week before) but it sounds sexual :D :luvlove: PICS SOON!
