cheers rob, glad you like them, better than my old ones by a mile. got to represent for the notts starlet crew, not many of us!

enzo, i used some chrome effect spray paint from a company called plastikote. its available from halfords because thats where i picked mine up from bout £8ish. its a lot better than i thought it would be, its a shame its not high heat or i would do my rocker cover in this aswell.

well mani is fitted now, was quite easy appart from one bolt that was rounded so became a pain in the arse other than that it was a piece of piss.

didnt move the fuel rail, didnt unplug anything from the throttle body, didnt need a longer bit of vacuum pipe i just moved the sensor holder. simply undone the bolts and banged the new one on.

first impressions are that there isnt a massive difference but i only went for a quick drive to check it was working. will give it a test tommorow and take a pic. it did sound pretty cool though. hopefully it is as good as everyone is saying, fitting was easy though.

just a small update for you all. painted my rocker cover matt black. new pipe for my air filter and some pigs to cover my side repeaters.

thanks everyone. i know the black rocker cover is a bit boring but with all the colour in there it looked a bit tacky to me in silver. i was gonna do the lines on it in lime green but decided it would be a pain in the arse to do!
