Here's an update it has been awhile...but i have been busy. :smt047 My Rocker cover is finished and on the car! i must say it is looking fresh! really pops the engine bay and brings it back from looking tired and diiiirrrty. i just need to get on the bay cleaning side now to make it look 100%

I was going to go with a Rising sun, but i had a change of heart and wanted something more solid. so went with white and a red Honda.

Heres a few pics of the cover.

Very pleased with the result, the white against the NHB is just awesome. Unfortunately my old Dome nuts are very tired, i have just orderd some anodised ones and ill pop a pic up once there on.
If fitting a newly refurbed one to an ep3, spend more time removing the brake fluid resevoir. its very tight under there and could dink the edge of it against the bracket. hmmm.
A good mate of mine did the refurb work www.spoonerproductions.co.uk/ his finish is second to none, i wouldnt use anybody else.

Next stop...Handling+Exhaust. Im booked in at TGM to get Eibach pro kit and FRS. I have also ordered a Tie-bar, and an upper front strut. Hopefully the handling will be sweet and very responsive after....well in comparison to this boat im in now :cool:

Spoon N1 is on its way and was supposed to have arrived yesterday, but damn couriers are never reliable! There are some mixed reviews on the N1 some like it some hate it. i have only seen it in vids not in the flesh so will have to see when it gets here :confused:

Easy now
 
Yes great work there, I've been trying to get my paint work top notch but after using this naf stuff they call 'G3' I wasn't impressed.
I know I'll need to get the front bumper resprayed (any idea on costs?) but theres swirls I can work on - so I'll give Megs 3 step a go.

Cheers,

Yoshi
