[TypeRiter]

Yeah mate, this will be the first performance mod

Definitely let us know how you got on dude.

 

[DaveKelz]

Sorry about the lateness of these, been slacking with updating the thread!

Had the Gruppe M on for a couple weeks now, and have to say it's one of the craziest things I've heard!

I'll let the pics do the talking:

Petrol seems to be disappearing now!

That look excellent mate, good to see a OEM modded scuttle to keep it looking perfect.

I can remember the first time I heard a GM, it was on my own car after fitting it, I just lol'd HARD !!!!

 

[TypeRiter]

It's funny you say that mate, whenever I take my mates out in it their cheeks hurt from smiling so much

Does sound mint Riter! You HAVE to get one!

Young, that is mine! No more waiting lol!

Does anyone know where I could find these black Mugen reservoir covers?

Can't seem to find them anywhere!

Can't seem to find them anywhere!

Just a hunch; they could be fake - and randomly available from some obscure EBay source (China/Malasia). As I've never known Mugen to release socks like these. Could be wrong though.

Cracking upgrades Dave, very jealous of your JDM sill trims.

Coming along very nicely mate. :smt023

 

[DaveKelz]

Cheers Crumb, glad you like it

Guessed you were right on the fake mugens Sun, so went for the Skunk2's to keep in with the theme!

Ordered yesterday at around 2pm and were here by 11am today!

Excuse the dirt, all needs a good going over!

 

[TypeRiter]

Nice and Tidy mate.. I prefer the Skunk2's to them dodgy Mugen's - tie in with your theme much better too IMO.

Dirt, what dirt?

 

[vincent]

Gave it a quick going over yesterday while the weather was dry for a few hours. Did the engine bay as well.

Started raining after the first snap so only got a couple.

Hope you like!

[Darrenho]

Cheers mate, after looking at them now I prefer them too.

Thanks Vincent, you have a pm!

Cheers Darren, I'm all about making things look pretty. The GM does that plus more

Thanks k20!

One good clean on the engine bay and then it's a case of keeping on top of it taspan. Cheers bud!

 

[Broze]

Thats a stunning example of a CTR.

Wish i could get mine that clean! :lol:

 

[DaveKelz]

Had a brake caliper painting kit for a while, so decided to make the most of the good weather today and get them done.

Took each wheel off one by one, cleaned and sealed it, and gave the calipers 2 coats of paint each.
