    I don't think I've ever seen that much crap in a fuel injector before.

    You and me both

    I had literally just had them serviced too. I didn't even bother trying to have them redone.... They went straight in the bin along with the brand new fuel pump and fuel filter I had fitted at the same time

    Thank you

    The colour is custom , basically it's jet black with 3.5% blue pearl mixed in. I just went to my mates paint shop and had them mix up various tints until I got close to what I had in mind.

    15th May 2012 (two weeks before my wedding !!!)


    Well its been a long road to get where it is today but its all done and finished 14 weeks later . Time to clock up some miles and enjoy :naughty::naughty:

    The day started off with a rinse and then snow foamed, followed by two bucket wash and a micro fibre dry. After that the rubbers were masked up and the car then treated to some AutoGlym Ultra Deep Shine. Once that was buffed off the car was then waxed with AutoGlym HD wax followed by tyres and plastics shined.

    The results were fantastic but the car is not very photogenic at all...you simply cannot get a decent shot of the pearl as it only comes out in 100% direct sunlight..which the reflection then buggers up the photo . I took some with the flash on to try give an idea but the just look crap , Speaking of reflection...the photo of the clouds was the reflection off the bonnet :smthumbup

    For the best effect, go back to the first page and check the 'before' photos again and THEN look at today's :handsup::handsup:

    Some engine bay shots..100% stock
















    Not bad for a 15 year old tart eh


    I did do a WHOLE lot of stuff i didn't really document or photo but it included the entire interior being removed and every thing cleaned and refitted. I also dyed the roof lining black and tinted the lamps all round. The headlamps were stripped ,cleaned and robo modded with halo's fitted.

    The car was finally completed a few days later when the window rubber trims arrived and the car was used for my wedding. It has been on the road for 8 months now as still looks as good as the day i finished it. The biggest thing was having the rotors hot zinc dipped as they look as new today as they did they day i fitted them. There is not a hint of corrosion at all even though the car lives outside in the weather without a cover.

    Hope you enjoyed the pics
