  2. Whats your opinion on this?

    £399 for a full car and its permanent(not like a plastidip that lasts up to 2 years).

    A huge variety of colours and you can go for a matt or glossy finish.

    This company have done a couple of cars i know of, i ve not seen them myself in the flesh as it were Dan but thegadgetman Eddie on here is one you could ask , on the standard of job done. also think this is " plasti dip scotland " new name ,new premises maybe

  3. Hi Mick

    You need a 75w-90 for the gearbox.
    If you want to go for the best, the Millers CRX 75w-90 NT, Gulf Competition, Motul Gear 300, Red Line MT90 and Millers TRX are ideal. The Castrol Universal/Universal Plus/Syntrans Multivehicle, Motul Motylgear and Fuchs Gear Syn are all decent alternatives.
    The best options for the power steering are the Amsoil ATF, Red Line D4 or Fuchs ATF6000, although the others are fine as cheaper alternatives.

    Cheers

    Tim

    thanks for info tim

  4. Is that the same as a heatgun or do u mean one of those steam cleaner handheld thingys? Quite worried the paint may come with it :(

    Its different from a heat gun , Id be cautious using heat gun too for same reasons.

    I used a H20X5 machine ,I found it excellent and it really got into the nook and crannies , it did soften the sticker enough for me to then peel , then i used wd40 to clean the sticky glue off , job done . some pics

  5. Martin thats not a bad list m8, as above some adjusting of rear brakes or clean up. exhaust middle to rear may be just a gasket ? again quite a cheap fix, and drop links , even if you ve to replace them all , not an expensive .

    A couple of hours work m8. If your needing a hand gimme shout. not too far away from you

  6. I must say the service from brakes international ordered on 31st , received email and text message for the day parts were to be delivered on, 4/4/13 and again this

    morning another text and email with a time to within an hour for delivery between 11.35and 12.35 .Parts arrived exactly on time.

    Excellent service and thanks to serratia and matt1280 for recommending them :D
