Would you mind letting me know how much these bits cost? via PM is fine. My front end is also looking a bit of a mess these days. I recently bought a new lower grille, after fitting it I wondered why I didnt buy the top (main) grille as well but presumed that part was pretty expensive.

Likewise can you post or send me the part numbers especially the lower vented fog grills. Car looks superb.
What's your oppinion on Zymol products?
I use Zymol Glasure on my cars....I started on the carbon wax kit and then went to their Glasure kit.
Lots of people seem use so many different products these days wondered which ones are best. I pretty pleased with Zymol though.
Ian

Toast
-
Thanks Toast
Wondered what you use on the wheels?
Did you find the change of springs altered the ride quality and handling as it's always a worry when not changing the dampers.
Ian
-
Awright Boabby! Yeeha! Likin the build its goin well wagen looks the shiz be very interestin to see where you go next!? lol. Paintshop....Coilovers...diff???? 7wks to decide. Av got a few bottle caps from ma work that could help you with your scrap collection? Oot n by son! :driver:

I'm sure it will all be planned in secret. Well you do hav big traction issues in this shiz scottish weather and it would be nice to ram it right up those new skool blue oval brigade boys with a 13sec run! That mint green corsa in your pic looks rather concourse sombody has spent a lot of time on that.

Aye going good mate, What about you? Heard you've been on the phone to Jim at Star? :driver: Get the photo's up pronto and if your wanting to see what the map's before you get it done give me a bell and al take you a spin :smiley:
-
I will take you up on the offer for sure! Yeah Jim got back to me with a really good price for the milteck and map, much cheaper than those robbin twats at drivers in Glasgow. I really want the VWR stage 1 but they are too far away.
I will try and get pics before Thursday as the car is going back to get the a/c repaired and the laquer on the door repaired.
Then let the mods begin
-
hi there toast. wat sort of money did it cost you to get ya wheels painted? was it paint or powder coat?
lukin at buying a red edition 30, but the wheels could do wiv abit of a refrub.

It cost me £42.50 a wheel for 18's done locally at a powder coater and took 2 days turn around :happy2:
-
Looking good there Toast, thats a good price I'm going to get a guy in Blackburn(bathgate) to do mine. Going for a very dark anthracite almost black.
-
Another good place to try is Dublaster's up in Largo guys called John 07596 357443 :happy2: Good guy V- dubber through and through he did my mate's mk3 astra gsi wheels
-
I seen them on SVAG. there's a place in Carnwath - Ace performance who have a R/Road to, think they are Jap car specialists.
Do you have the zorst on yet? If your heading up to star give me a shout might pop up.
-
Yeah heard of Ace not sure on there work though think I heard mixed reviews over on Passionford about them , Not got the Zorst as of yet waiting for jonny to take it of the s3 mind you going by his probs I'd imagine that's last on his list at the mo :scared:! No rush though, Will do might have a go putting it on myself 1st don't think it would be to hard if I can use a ramp or pit to fit it :wink:! Still not heard from Jim on the fuel pumps :confused:

-

He did, but I am sure he can get them from Regal to. I think mines was imported. Thats been a while now youve been waiting.
I was going to call him about getting the WALK kit done once funds allow.

Great addition to the car Toast, one of the biggest differences I noticed when changing from the ED30 to S3 was the brakes, I love em' :drool: :happy2:

Awesome mod, could not do without them on my car now

Couldn't agree more mate, a mapped ED30 with the standard brakes is borderline dangerous :scared: :scared:
