  1. Beautiful. I wish id gone for the remix bumper when i had the chance i jus.couldnt afford the foglights!!
  2. Very nice base. After painting my wheels black id advise against. makes the wheels look smaller, id go white or bronze as would look lush against your blue!
  3. I got mine from a local motor factor. £12, Im yet to be tugged in my sr but my argument is the latest seat leon has square plates on the front :/
  4. Same. Bhav sorted me so hinges when i picked up my new engine off him so when i cba ill fit em.
  5. I've got 12x6 and got through my last m.o.t with them. And i didnt have to buy him a beer...
  6. We have a spanesi one, i assume my bodyshop got it as part of a deal as we have spanesi jigs. Got the steering clamp and brake depresser. Its crying out for an update but they want £500 to send out an update(so im told via managment) but the big man has jus left after 30 years and he wasnt going to authorise a purchase like that within the last couple of weeks. Either way, this has been going on for 2 or 3 years with this machine now im starting to get really miffed with it....
  7. When i bring the ramp back down to do my camber measurement and castor swing i move the ramp up and down to settle the suspension and that bounces more than i can ever do by hand. All tyre pressures are always checked and our system is set to not have a driver in.
  8. I have recently been promoted to having the title of wheel alignment technician. Now I've been doing tracking/geos for over five years but it seems every one in 3 geos i do the steering wheel hangs down to the left when driving straight, then do another geo on it again and its straight. The cars always drive nice and straight just the wheel is out. Any techys have this issue before?
  9. Who was she?! Not to mention she was beautiful, but when she started talking about carbon fibre and bhp it was like having phone sex with her!!
  10. Great idea, but if he doesnt freak when you confront him you may have a situation to diffuse.
  11. I have the same issue yet im running a lightweight bottom pulley, i find a squirt of wd shuts it up for a few days but im putting it down to it being so cold. its a new gates belt and has been on since about july, retightened to 1/4 of a turn, im just finding myself having to turn all electrics off apart from lights before i start engine braking. I have heard there is an aerosol that prevents belts from slipping
  12. Did u get your dough yet or are you still disinfecting your fist?
  13. Musta been fuckin tight! heat the threads up and get some visegrips on it. failing that chisel and beasty hammer
  14. Year:2009 Make:MINI Model:Cooper(1.6 N/A) Tax:April '13 MOT:April '13 Mileage:29,000 Description: At my girlfriends major dissapointment, she can no longer afford to keep her beloved cooper, due to having her hours cut at work and us recently getting our own place shes gutted to have to get rid. Car is a new shape cooper (not s) and she has been the only owner. Always taken care of and serviced at our local bmw/mini dealership. Recently had front discs and pads a little over 3k ago. Car also has 18" John Cooper works wheels on it. All wheels have slight kerbing on them, nothing that a refurb

  19. I got myself a set of osram night breakers from euro car parts, good price like £14 the pair i think, certainly light up enough of the road and i live in the sticks.
  20. ARGHHGGGGHHHGHH. Its taken me an hour and a half to do a 25 minute journey this morning. Im al for being cautious in the dangerous weather but id at least like 40mph PLEASE!
