Today's work ...

[Dan1971]

Bought some R45 headlights and a front fog a while back - thought after changing the fuel filter successfully yesterday - I'd give it a go.

Bumper off job !!

Here it was - yellow indicators and a yellow mouldy fog.

The bumper's still in a state though, and the splitter is cracked underneath so that's why I didn't get the espace black splitter on there at the same time. It really needs replacing, or spraying, but I'm really happy with how it's turned out.

Cost £35 .... :clap2:

They look so much better than ZS lights, good work bud :)

[grimmy]

Much neater looking Dan.good job.

[KirkJames]

They really suit the zs, especially in red for some reason :)

[daytona365]

Nice job..............Like the number plates ...........

[Dan1971]

Cheers - not sure if I'm happier with the actual new look - or with the fact that I did it all myself !!!

Hee hee .... bit of both I reckon !!

Daytona - the plates are great mate - :bow:

You're gonna be getting my BMW on Tuesday too at Gates - the Polo I'm buying is from you guys. Just don't tell the manager how much I've ripped him off !!! There's an order gone in for my private plates to get made up and stuck in the boot of the Polo too for when I get it transferred.

[daytona365]

Oh, so you're the one they offloaded the polo on, sorry that very nice polo........
Dont think you can see the marks where they reversed into the wall!!!!!!

Only kidding...........
Will keep an eye out, may even be me making the plates..........

[WalkerDnB]

I think the clear light look much better on the red ZS's

[andys1981]

the rover 45 lights do make a big difference,top effort again mate

[Smokey]

:thumbsup:

[Scarab]

Looks good mate, bet you are well chuffed with that!

[big_wasa]

yep clear on red looks great.

[Dan1971]

Rear brace fitted today ... Not driven it in anger to see if it's any different - but we'll see .... Should be stiffer round the bends apparently - thanks Sam.

And I'm not fussed about how bad the carpet cuts are by the way - I ran out of tape the other day so I'll make it neater .... The boot ain't supposed to be pretty though and I might do away with all the boot carpet trim anyway ... ;)

I like the brace, need one for the track car!

[peterzs]

Whens the first track day, Dan????????????

[Dan1971]

We were only talking about a track day yesterday Pete ...

Having had a look theres a few of the taster sessions in October but the dates aren't good for me - then looking at it, there's a road car only day on 26th November for £139.... :hmm:

Otherwise - cheers fellas - and Gordon - Red is always faster than yellow - simples .... ;)

[Sonic_160zr]

Coming along nicely, glad to see you made use of the old towel rail :D

I agree with the 45 lights, look much better than the ZS ones.




Cheers,
Matt
