  1. Well, whatever it was, its gone, started at 8 with a wash of the car, two polishes and a gloss sealant and now first coat of wax
  2. I woke up and had these all over my car, windows, doors .. everything If i spat on them and wiped them off with a cloth they went, If i tried get them off with my finger it just smeared them
  3. 8 months - still young and honestly can not see me changing in the next 5 years Unless petrol becomes outrageous
  4. I usually thumbs up others .. rather than wave
  5. What's the point, spend £200ish to make it look good, a few trips on the motorway and it'll look how it was before the respray, Save the money or spend it on something else
  6. lol I tried cable ties .. I couldn't figure out how to do it, I put it through one hole and couldn't get it to come out the other side.. bahh oh well
  7. New Forest is old, just saying Those clips you can get on eBay, the ones people use for engine plastics, they fit brilliantly, plus if you stick the stick into the clip it's stays in for good, proper tight fit
  8. Quite slow I suppose,very stable and comfortable, nothing harsh. I don't drive past 3000rpm, unless I know I'm heading onto a Motorway (hardly ever), then I'll boot it into lift a few times
  9. Orange looks awesome if you are in Miami or somewhere nice hot and sunny ... if you live in a rainy dark gloomy place, then it's a no no
  10. I've noticed alot more too, but I'm assuming because you own the car you take more notice when seeing one. I used to own a KA, now I feel I don't see any on the road, maybe 2 a week.
  11. Rota GTR (Gunmetal) or Rota Boost look good
  12. .. I see your planning on who your standing next too lol
  13. I'm just gonna have to stand next to it and not move lol block the view of it. I wasn't that bad when I saw it, because my rear is like it too lol, when I first did the rear i was like ohhhh shiiiiit, that happened a week after i bought the car, I'm trying to see how easy it is to remove and just buy a second hand one from ams/nix, probably work out alot cheaper then re-spraying it
  14. I am a complete noob with that, I haven't even heard of the stuff needed, I get what you mean by if it messes up it doesn't matter because I'll get it re-sprayed, but I know for a fact it WILL mess up, I'd easily need to buy some crap car part from somewhere and do my own tests and what not first, appreciate the suggestion though. Just been offered £100 to fix it
  15. Hoody that would be brilliant if he could, let me know as soon as he tells ya appreciate that Sluggy .. no chance lol it was my fault anyway, even if he offered, I'd probably turn it down
  16. Cheers, ive emailed and waiting for the reply, I've been quoted £150 from http://www.carbodyrepairs4less.co.uk , so any cheaper I'd be very happy
  17. That looks a top job, did you phone up before going to them, or did you just turn up and ask for a quote?
  18. I've emailed 3 places with pictures, hopefully I'll hear from them monday, got lakeside meet not tomorrow but next sunday, Mines gonna look like it just come out of the scrap
  19. I'm not a fan of T-cut, and would rather pay to get it done properly, dont wanna pay alot, but guessing knowone could do it for about £100
  20. Reversing round the fence to let my dad out .. and got too close to the fence pillar, couldn't believe it, it's not a deep scratch, infact if your run your finger along it it's smooth, so for the time being I've ordered touch up paint. Does anyone know a good priced place near London/Essex that could sort this out for me?
  21. I did some reviews and looked around at apex, alot of people (not celica owners) said they are a harsh ride, feel every bump and were just a right put off Obviously these people ^^ up there, will know what there ride is like, but just to let you know there could be a chance you don't like them. Me personally I'm gonna buy eibach ones
  22. Good luck with it all mate , too far for me but I'm sure someone will come along near you at some stage
