Location: barnsley | decided not to refit rear headrests when i have seats retrimmed. i wasnt keen of them really as it made the back of the seat crumple and cant cut no more sponge out as its not thick enough.

Some of your styling isnt to my taste, but as I will always say "Function before form" |

i appreciate your comment but the exhaust gives it a really deep noise it is loud but you sacrifice confort to get thngs like that.
regarding the arches if i hadnt have fitted the sixteen inch mgtf alloys i would have had no reason to fit themits just that the wheels protruded the arches and they where the best i could find to cover them but i think they look diffrent.
as for the rear wiper its more of a convenience really but i wanted to keep it more or less looking standardish. |

Well done. It's got the juice's flowing so much i've got myself another to play with! Spoke to Geof today about the springs i really hope they work as he hopes they will, thats first on the to do list!! |

thanks mate it makes all the diffrence tidying the engine bay up i think its the only thing that lets a lot of moded cars down as people dont tend to think about it once the bonnets shut(dont mean us guys as all our cars are well looked after)
and its nice to have power when you need it |

hi mate which of the styling dont you like
As Ive said previously, not keen on the exhaust (but youre turbo'd up, so I can allow a little for that)
But your arches look like an afterthough.
Sorry.
Aware that you need them to take them huge wheels, but thats when I, personally, would be reconsiddering huge wheels... ie when it compromises looks IMO
But as Ive said, on the technical side of things, this has to be a fave of mine |
