Looks lovely. How did you get your exhaust tips back to being that shiny!?

Autosol, a scouring pad and a load of elbow grease. Problem is, it gets dirty so quick again! I'm told that using wheel wax makes it easier to clean next time.

Been a while since I updated this one!

I always intended to be a slow modder on this one. Other properties and all that. It's a great car as standard, so just needs a little embellishment in my opinion.

Anyway, you'll have to excuse the filthy car in these pics. The car spends a fair bit of time on the motorway!

So Santa kindly brought me a Ramair CAI. I had been looking at others and just thought for the price, I'd give it a go. Here it is:-



These kits have been mentioned a bit. I think it's great. It's not as pretty as some others, but mine's no show queen. Sound wise it's similar to the Revo kit, slightly quieter. Sounds much better actually post map.

This brings me on to my trip to R-TECH. I'd planned this for ages and after a lot of research, couldn't really go anywhere else. I'd always wonder if it could have been better. So off I went to Hinckley. Great day out with my boy and a mate (forum member). Very pleased with the results:-



Power is just available all through the rev range. Sport mode in particular is transformed. Great guys and well worth a visit!

Finally, I whacked this on today:-



Not decided on it yet. Car needs a clean as it doesn't even look black at the moment!

Thoughts/comments/questions welcome.

Greenman:
Love what you've done with the badge.

Is that just a stick on underlay to the standard badge?

I'm tempted to do something similar.
