  2. Window tinting is one of those 'easy' wanky jobs

    Read instructions , apply film , sorted

    No ! Read instructions , do everything it says , lay down back seats so you have room to tint the rear hatch ,realise you need to get into boot to fit tint , end up with the tinting film stuck to you head like in the aliens films :)

    Only time I tinted my windows and it looked good was when I was 18 I tinted the whole rear windows of my mini with hammerite !!! Looked brilliant on the out side , but a tad dark on the inside :D

    Haha this would have looked good on mine if I hadnt stuck it to itself lol! Then I looked like the woman in black coz it flopped on my head! Haha turns out my tint film wasn't wide enough either! The side Windows don't look too bad but I can't afford silly money to get them done. I've been quoted 90 and 100 from two different companies :/ Im just getting impatient coz I want everything I can do finished before jae :)

  3. hello :D

    does anyone on here happen to do window tinting professionally? or know of someone or a good company?! pleease :)

    i have given up trying to do my boot and dragon queens also needs doing professionally because me and dad did it! lol! we did a good job its just she wants it perfect! hehe!!

  5. hermes and paisley - Ive never had a problem and I send may 5-15 parcel with them a week - what problems have you had.

    Most of the time problems are down to sending parts that are not appropriately packed - or sending items that are easily prone to damage and too hard to securely pack - dont send doors, bonnets, tailgates - wings are a maybe if you can pack properly

    Paisley kick the carp out of parcels and hermes were good until they lost our parcel for ages and were complete turds about it.

  6. Do you need a new engine? That is the question !!

    Customising will push up your insurance.

    Well the mileage is quite high and if I'm fixing up the body work I may as well put an engine in with less mileage so it lasts longer :)

    I'm just looking at customising paint at the minute :) just after the same engine but less miles

  7. Sorry if this is in the wrong place :)but I am looking at dropping a newer engine in my brum once I've stripped her back and sorted the paint issue. Anyone on here know of anywhere I can get one for at a reasonable price with descent mileage as this one has almost 150,000.

    Decided she was a bargain and I'm wanting to fix her up and customise her to death :)

    :please: Help

    ThAnks bobo :)

  8. I get this one quite alot at the petrol station whilst filling up

    "Nice car, is it your parents?"

    Me: "No, it's mine, I bought it."

    "HOW THE HELL CAN SOMEONE OF YOUR AGE AFFORD THAT?!"

    Love hearing it everytime :P

    I get that with mine and I haven't even drove it! Lol the neighbours thought we had a visitor the night we fetched it and all my friends say the generic you won't be able to insure that. Lol :)

  9. Been in the shadows for a long time, about time I came out... Before it consumes me and I remain... A lurker.. forever.

    Had this vvti before, I miss her, she was called Sonia!

    Didn't know I could request a username change until it was too late.

    I needed my celica fix, I was an addict, and I needed a stronger dosage. I tossed and turned looking for a vvtli... Until... Oneday On fleabay I found her... My Selma!

    By the time a came to a stop, I was still jizzing from lift. Such force, such speed, such wow.

    Here I humbly parked next to the great legend Daytona (who nicknamed it "flying snot", but my phone flash let me down so you can't really see him.

    The exhaust gave a headache on my first drive, sounded like dub step to an old man. Now I love it. As if the colour wasnt loud enough.

    M sport spoiler would finish it off right? Keeping an eye on daytona's group.

    Never thought I'd be driving a lime green car, now I love walking back to the car park seeing all the other neutral coloured cars, and then there's mine, easy to find.

    There's a weird grinding noise sometimes from the rear driver wheel and a whirling sound from the engine... Normal noises? And sometimes I loose coolant but no radiator leaks, just a bubbling sound when I start up.

    I love the shade of snot green :) want to customise my celica with a luminous colour :)
