How did you go about putting the wheel nut's on after being painted surely they would be marked once you put them on the car?

Do 1 coat, leave about 30mins to dry, do the 2nd coat and then leave about 6-8hours for them to completely harden!

I did them overnight because it's easier, and I did 2nuts and the locking nut and then the other two the next night!
 
small update;

decided to remove the sound/heat proofing on the underside of the bonnet as it looks tacky imo, gave a quick clean and decided to start a sticker collection here to make it look pretty :) hopefully will collect more as i buy new parts etc

it was my 1st time ever down the strip so i was quite excited, my legs were shakin like a leaf in a hurricane on the start line but i loved it!! only managed to get 4 runs in in the end as it was soo busy, my best was a 15.27 @ 93mph, however i did do a 15.29 @ 95mph aswell, the others were shockingly bad in comparison, due to miss shifts and a very very bad start :/

c + c welcome as always
 
Its worth a go.. at the worst youll have to buy a new set of standard stickers and stick them back on.. no big deal ?

Im thinking of buying "VTEC Just Kicked In Y0!" for by my exhaust
 
I thought of changing the Type R sticker on the side skirts with the DOHC i-vtec sticker of the old machines but not got round to it yet. Not sure if I'll like it 100%. Maybe you could do this in your bronze colour.

where did you pick up the stickers mate?

If you mean the urls I got them from mook who is in the traders section, if you mean the other stickers I got them from a company called stick-r who had a stand at the fast show last weekend, but they also have a website!


I have pm'd mook about getting some sideskirt decals done in my gold/red scheme to match urls :) so when payday arrives I shall be buying some :)
 
Really nice well looked after example mate, love my NHB EP3 but your cosmic with the black wheels looks spot on pal :)
 
Car looking great as always , your always doing something to your car lol
You going Santa pod on the 17th June ?
 
Benny, some good progress going on in here... I'm not sure overly keen on some of the visible stickers on the body-work (rear bumper one in articular), but I think they look good beneath the bonnet.

I did that on my EP3 - here's a shot:

Tbh mate I thought it was a good idea at the time and gave me a few lols but now I've started them under the bonnet I might remove the bumper ones as it looks a lot cleaner without them imo so only time will tell they may well be off on the next update lol!

Is that a mugen splitter you have on the ep3 in that pic mate it looks smart as f***
