agreed, looks like a perfect base!!!! keep us updated on your progress, plans sound great! Phil.

Update Radiator bracket didnt fit, and no spacer was going to do the job. I've sent pics back to dean of the gap, so hopefully he can whip something up pretty soon. On Wednesday I met a man in a car park and I gave him some parts to give to another man. On Sunday I'm going to see a third man about a number of parts that combine to make a nice set of parts. All very mysterious, but as always, hints abound on the GaragEP instagram feed. Photos when I've collected said parts. Phil.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: Phil.

thread unlocked as OP now has pictures of the item in question to include. Phil.

THE LUGGAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Possibly my favourite character actually lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! those are utterly fantastic! the Librarian one is stunning! Phil.

this thing just makes me want to go home from work and start working on my own car!! love it!!! great work as always dude! looks fantastic! Phil.

Looks like a good base dude, nice to see a square light!!! that green GT with the TOM's spoiler, dont suppose your mate used that as a daily driver in the last few years?? Reason I ask is i used to see one just like that on the M2 / Moira - Glenavy road pretty often in the mornings, looked sweet! Keep us updated on your progress! Phil.

Phil.

weekend updates please!! lets see them!!! Phil.

:thumbsup: Phil.

me too lol!!! how long have i been at this mod/admin jazz now?? even at a few grand a year, that would have been a nice wee earner lol!!!! often considered there's a gap in the market of the online forum world there ye know - set up a wee business with a couple of folk, and u simply charge £x to provide X hrs of mod cover to an online forum per day with defined things u do and do not cover to keep ye right with the forum owners, wham bam, wee business on the go as a Contract Moderator lol. Patent pending pricks, hands off my multi million ££ idea! Phil.

^^^^^this. You are aware none of us get paid for this right? You are aware we all have full time jobs and our own lives, right?? Help mods run it. lol Phil.

thanks for flagging this up. Think Matt and Trisk are on the case already, hopefully be sorted ASAP. Phil.

great to see more NI members!!!! Welcome along dude! Phil.

:wub: Shelbo :wub: On another note, nice car!!! GLWTS! Phil.

nice work bud! Phil.

Saw that white one fecking months ago. the price is ridiculous, low mileage or not. I had to talk my dad out of going to view it!! silly money, but great condition. Phil.

He still owns it yes, but I doubt very much he'd be willing to part with any of it. Socks would probably know for sure though. Phil.

no, you said you are sure his intention was to fuck up your sale. that's how you feel about it, not that it doesnt help. I simply asked for an explanation as to why you felt like that. your statement makes it appear that Amjad's intentions were purposefully malicious. I'm only asking why you feel he'd act in such a way, given that I've never seen anything that would even hint at such behavior from him. perhaps you simply choose your words above wrongly, in which case fair enough. I'm just trying to figure out if there is more going on here than a disagreement over a single post. If there was, then there would indeed be grounds for the admin to clean up your thread as it would then be trolling. Phil.

the GLS models of the N/A EP91 came with a chrome bevel/lip around the dials, i.e. on the trim piece that sits over the top of the dials. SiCaln had one fitted to his old car Geoff, and my brother's old GLS had it too. See post 11, photo number 3 in the link below of my bro's old car to see what I mean: http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/63213-tim/ Phil.

welcome along! plenty of NI EP owners floating about here, and plenty pretty local to you in Lisburn! Phil.
