    Doing a bit of tidying up just wanted to know whats best for covering the brakes just want them black for now to smarten it up abit
  5. Ahhhhh i dint think that could be beat but u proved me wrong mate quality **** jokes haha
  6. Whos the nicest guy in the hospital ?? The ultrasound guy !!
  7. If you havent removed the coat hooks u need no they shud push up and pop off bud
  8. I think the imobalizer contacts are under the steering cowlings theres a black wire leading to the connectors thats what u need to be cleaning not 100 % on that tho im sure someone will be along soon if thats not right
  9. I cant see the problem with the new forum i hardly ever use my computer any more and constantly on the i phone i havent had a problem with it the whats new is just the same as new posts and to look through the threads you have commented on its straight through quik links it cant be much simpler than that Im not one to be bothered about how much space there is between text and what fancy colour the border is writing comes up and you read it and when theres no more left you click next page surley thats it !! I find scrolling downbthe right hand side good asweal as you dont have to open new posts you can see whats hapning from the home page Shurley a few changes to how its laid out and a few different coulours and pages cant be that bad that you have to leave after 2 mins Not having a dig i just cant seebthe problem thats all
  10. I had a dodgy ignition switch mate it would turn the car over but wouldnt start it !!! My mechanic said it was making the wrong connections and turning the motor the wrong way wich in turn was making tjw car turn over but not start !! If thats possible anyway he changed it and its fine now but he did say he had to use a screw driver and hammer to knock the bolts round an out as they had some anti theft thing on them Dont know if thats any help but minea fine now after he changed it all
  11. Yea the stuff your talking about is 3m the same company who make all your double sided tapes and stuff Iv got a sample of it im gonna have a mess with applying it will be easy as its my job but cleaning it should be ok its not got gaps as such in it just a carbon textured finish to make it that little bit more real as it serves no real meaning apart from looks
  12. Haha maybe mate time will tell weather i do it or not but u are right people are skint and it is a viable option if you havent got the extortionate money companys charge for a respray I heard of a lad on here spending 6000 or so on a respray i couldnt believe it lol thats mad money give me three or four days and 300 quid and its done and dusted iys just suffering the consiquences of removing it and the possibility of damageing the 17 year old laquer thats a bit off putting
  13. Yes i can be removed it would leave glue but that can also be removed its a bit of a pain in the arse job but not difficult Isuppose your right in a way and yes any part if scratched can just be removed and a new shiney piece put on Although it could be removed i do think that it would pull the laquer of with it being blown over in the past so could be a problem if someone did want it removing Its quite a good idea if you havent got the money for a respray im just really undecided as to cover it or not
  14. Yea it would be different and na i dont really think it would hit off lol plus im not reallly a fan of e38 tbh i just like it on here Would you think of buying a wrapped car tho thats the question i am worried about if every disliked it it could be hard to sell if i ever needed to
  15. Vinyl !!! Iv had a few problems with my roof leaking so for now i have wrapped it in black vinyl but as soon as i get my new moon roof sorted because i have laquer peel on the roof am gonna do it in the new carbon fiber vinyl instead of gettin a respray as its cheaper and should look very good While the paint isnt great on my car as was wondering should i wrap the full car maybe black ? As i do it for a living i can get it looking as flat as paint and at a fraction of the price of a respray about 300 quid with the carbon roof and spoiler and normal metalic black for the rest of the car My hold backs are resale value really would any of you guys be put off by a wrapped car remember if done well can look very good Im not planning on selling but its just something that ran through my mind when contemplating doing it Its bordeux pearl so a gawjus colour but i dont have the money to get a full respray and i dont want to let it get to scruffy Any thaughts or comments on vinyle wrapping anyone
  16. Cheers guys i thaught i had replied yo this thread so sorry for the delay i dont like being ignorant Iv just had a read through you thread mate cars lovely and i noticed you had done the sunroof im going yo be keeping my eyes peeled now as im kinda sik ov the black vinyl sealing the sunroof as a temp fix just so much to do and no monry to do it lol i suppose at 25 quid tho u cant go wrong
  17. Looks stunning mate i actually like the cream wheels not sure about the badges tho but as i say each to there own What did you use to clean the bay looks spankingly clean if such a word exists haha
  18. Are you using good quality oil i use vw synta silver nothing else also could be worth changing the fuel filter Im having similar problems but im breaking down for a random 5 mins before she fires up fine again Mines boggy low down tho thinking of giving the throttle body a good clean and service to see if that helps
  19. That would be great mate im in east hull just near the asda bilton down fleet estate I dont even mind coming to you if ya cant be arsed to drive mate it would help us rule out whats not causing it so i can get it sorted Ahh and just to let you know i priced yhe cold start injector up just out of curiosity and the price ....... 105 english pounds lol expensive for one injector surley
  20. Hopefully in the next month or so mate i can wait on for you if you wanna get it done together ?? Will work out cheaper he said he could probs get to hull for extra 20 quid petrol wich is decent and as you stated also does discounts for a couple of cars
  21. I gave the front passenger a go but the rust put an end to that lol its not mega bad but obvs doesent look great iv now rang banded steels so gonna ge tje rears done by him he said 70 quid for the rears wich are double skinned an he said he would do it in bowt an hour n half Lilfuzzer on here said they did a great job and iv seen his car in real life and it did look fine I wouldnt worry about the paint just get ot blown in i am like the rest of my car haha
  22. Well when it broke down the other day i got a new air filter and a fuel filter just so i could rule those things out as jobs done but i didt get chance to do the fuel filter as the bolts that hold it together looked very corroded and i didnt want to be paniking about at half nine last nite lol I hope the fuel pump isnt on the way out sounds expensive lol and i am skint ---------- Post added at 12:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 AM ---------- Well when it broke down the other day i got a new air filter and a fuel filter just so i could rule those things out as jobs done but i didt get chance to do the fuel filter as the bolts that hold it together looked very corroded and i didnt want to be paniking about at half nine last nite lol* I hope the fuel pump isnt on the way out sounds expensive lol and i am skint*
  23. Ahh cheers easypops i thaught that was justva senso i will have a look tomorrow ! Am i right in thinking that this would need to be a new item as the injectors are lets say not worth cleaning
