I can't lose my heated seats, they are my way of getting out of doing warm up exercises before football.

The wing on that digger is too low, and its pointing in the wrong direction.

Where are these Buxum meets?

The photos are in my photobucket account, plenty of pictures with my signature in the same album! http://s1310.photobu..._Baton/library/

Hi, purchased this from ebay about 6 months ago. It plays music via bluetooth and into a stereo via a line in. To use this on a 350 you need to have the bose hack or an aftermarket stereo with a line in, but you could use it on any stereo doesn't have to be a car one. It works from standard blue tooth you don't need actually need a blackberry. I tried it and the sound quality was terrible and I use an ipod classic in my car anyway so no need for bluetooth!!! Its been on my shelf for ages so decided I would get rid of it to a new home. Only paid £13 for it . If any wants it they can either pick up from Brighton for free or I can post it for a minimal fee. £5 if you want it in the box or £2 if you want it in a jiffy bag! Just realised I forgot my forum name, can I be excused as I'm hardly ripping going to do a runner with that price.

What have you been doing to those seats Actually I don't want to know

For a few seconds there I thought you meant the glove box . Its a Stanley Fatmax mobile workstation. If you want to see one in all its glory I'd suggest looking at this thread... http://www.detailing...ad.php?t=207474 I've got a spare door pull for sale if you want to try a few things out and not mess with your own one.

Tried to touch up some of the smaller dings on the centrer console with a range of illustrator pens. Had high hopes but overall I'd give it 4 out of 10. Its passable from a distance but its still pretty visible close up. The weapon of choice, has an end like a paint brush so you can dab tiny dots or press harder and cover a larger area, its also layerable. I brought a rand of greys but only the darkest one was dark enough. Before: After: from a distance: Before: After:

Paint it, wrap it, or carbon dip it. You'll have to do the whole centre console. I tried to ouch mine up with a felt tip pen, its on slightly better but i 'd give a generous 3 out of 10.

Fuses in the driver footwell are on the right hand side, against the wing. There is a map to the fuses on the flap you pull down to acess them

what spoiler is it?

I was just about to be 'that guy', but proved myself wrong

How about video? I can Skype him? +~# I've got no idea what these are but I just go with the crowd. One day I'm going to bring lanky aerials back into fashion. Less Mazda more Rover.

Sounds like a job for flyboy or cs2000

For bird poo or any general dirt I want off quickly, I just use an cheap micro fibre (the ones I got from B&Q ) and a Quick detailer (I use chemical guys speed wipe)

Did you cancel your DD with Orange? I'd recommend posting your issue in here http://forums.moneys...splay.php?f=257 you'll get a much more informed response.

Always a good idea to set an alarm for the date you phone contract runs out so you can go down to sim only. I was on sim only and got the 5s for £450 when taking in the extra I'm paying on my new contract. I'm happy with the 5s, just not blown away. It just feels like memory upgrade. Should point out I've got no problem with working android now, it only take a few weeks to get used to.

I just went from a 4 to a 5s, pretty underwhelmed its faster and a lot of my annoyances with the 4 have been fixed but its not blown my socks off. Went android for the first time earlier in the year on the nexus 7. For the first week i felt like my parents for the first time in my life, couldn't do anything!!!

Your link doesn't work as a link http://www.siriusprojects.co.uk./ I don't normally like the carbon interior but yours looks great. Is it dipped or proper carbon?

Looks like we'll be ending up with a similar car, black badges are on next months list! Not sold on the front black badge though, for some reason I don't like it, but plenty of others do. I might go for the fairlady name badge rather than the 350z name, toying with the idea of using both. You'll be after a black roof next If you want a set of mirrors and door handles to spray up and then swap onto your car I've got some for sale in my signature. I prepped and sprayed up a spare set over 4 days. Its much easier and you don't lose the use of your car whilst your doing it.

No its a thick elastic loop, the tablets held on by the front of the tablet case being flipped over to the back and tucked in behind the elastic. I only use the tablet for a sat nav on long journeys so wanted something I could remove easily. I just keep the elastic loop in the armrest. The elastic loop is held together by iron on wonder web, so the back side looks a bit ghetto, but you can't see it. The other option would be to sew it together but i'm a man.

Okay, I've been around for long enough now, so its about time I posted a few pics of my car. As you'll read below its pretty much a forum built car, still holding out for my free sticker though. Thanks go to 14N, CS2000, Flyboy, Peteman23, Steve 230z, Japex, Clark Motor sport, Tarmac and probably a few others Picked up my Car from Tradelink end of Sept '13 Carbon wrapped my b-pillars, all by myself, and put 3 light layers of clear coat on it to give a light shine. Although I was enjoying listening to my old tape collection, next came the Bose hack, including hacking an old phone mount into a custom cubby hole holder and inventing the simplest way to mount a tablet. I'm currently waiting for copyright to come through. Although its phone mount I actually use it for an ipod classic, its got 160gb of music on it so no chance of getting bored! I just have to operate it sideways! Now for my copyrighted quick release easy tablet mounting method. I'll be selling these custom mounts on the forum soon... Twelfty pounds. I only use a tablet for a sat nav and only use it every few months or so, so wanted something removable. Next came a seatbelt cushion - again installed all by myself. Original 14N Tonneau cover, Steve350z stubby and a cargo net and floor mats from Clark Motorsports - Standard behaviour. As 14N has stupidly updated his design I might need to get a better one now, but I'm sure I can sell an original batch 14N for more then I brought it for , right! I could even fake his signature on it and everything. I then had a bit of a mare trying to install CS2000s LED reflectors, basically brought some second hand, broke them had to rebuild them myself then install them. Probably a 4 month process but you can read about it in CS2000s thread if you want! I faired slightly better with CS2000s LED interior and side bulb replacement kit. Got my roof wrapped and rear and 1/4 windows tinted by Ultimate Wraps in Dudley following a recommendation from 14N. Pictures in the second link below. Thats not my number plate, long story got me pulled over at one point, but all fine now. https://www.facebook...Ultimatewrapsuk https://www.facebook...542545599175286 Had the wrap done in the middle of winter when it was freezing and think the cold weather followed by a 4 hour drive the next day did weird things to the tint (as shown below). it had 24 hours to cure and I kept the heat down on the drive. Thankfully over the next week it mostly went back to normal, just a couple of hardly noticeable white spots left now and Jack at UW offerd to fix it for free anyway. Managed to build up a detailing kit at some point... Also installed SGS uprated struts from the forum group buy & Boot Popper reconditioning from PeteMan35 - Boot still won't upon up by itself but gets past the catch first time and only needs a light touch to help it on its way! I've also added a Cosworth air filter and Flyboys mirror fold module, which took about 6 months to get right, my fault though! I've also installed a new greener air filter... My clutch started to go after Christmas so had Ross at Japex install a new clutch, flywheel and a slave cylinder and uprated hose from Clark Motorsport The inside of my car was bit dinged up so I resprayed the door switch panels and also tried to buffer out the silver door pull, I got rid of the scratches from the door pull but obviously also got rid of the brushed aluminium look. Didn't like the polished aluminium look so painted in gloss black and like it better than the OEM look. I have a spare door pull for sale, if you want to try this without using your own one. I tried a layer of clear coat on the screw cover to see what it would look like on the rest of the finish. Too shiny, so no clear coat for the rest of it. This is what I keep in my car, speed wipe and baby wipes for the bird poop and stripper scent for the ladies . Do'n knock it until you've smelt it, just don't tell women what its called, they are never impressed. I've also learnt a man can never have to many micro fibres (for the big bird poop) I've also recently painted my wing mirrors and door handles gloss back and added side steps/diffusers from the Tarmac group buy. I have my old door handles and wing mirrors for sale if anyone wants to try this. It means you can play around without removing the parts from your car, thus giving you more time to spend on the prep and finish. I've also carbon wrapped my kick plates but couldn't get the bubble out the corners, so will be removing at some point and replacing with aluminium kick plates. Might take a photo of my attempt for the forum lols. Plans for the future: Nismo V1 wing with the top part gloss black or maybe just keep the OEM lip and paint it black Aluminium kick plates from Steve 350z - If i can get in time next time he has stock! 2006 Airbox conversion from flyboy Probably get a new gear knob as mines a bit tatty, I like the OEM shape but will probably try a Nismo at some point. Paint restore, there are a few deep/ wide scratches that won't come out with scratch x2.0. I can probably touch up and polish a few of them but think the bonnet bumper and passenger wing will need a respray. If I don't get round to buying a house this year I might get the leather redone, I think custom seats would really set the car apart. Possibly replace the windscreen, but I'm going to try polishing out the chips first. Then I'm done, obviously...

Haven't got this month's, so so so can't comment on the quality but curing time shouldn't make any difference to the finish unless you're layering and there isn't normally enough in a waxybox kit for 2 layers. Usual wax timings are apply, wait 15-30 minutes for it to haze, then buff off and wait 1-24 hours for it to cure before layering. The buffing stage should remove any smears

I think people round here value their paint to much to use a car cover. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Autoglym-Bird-Dropping-Wipes/dp/B0028HCGFA I just use cheap microfibers and a spray of speed wipe/quick detailer. I live by the sea, massive seagulls email every where. I've learnt not to park under trees.

Zed was my first car!
