It's up to the trader concerned to edit the title and content thread as he sees fit.

Had a nice registry office do, 24 close friends and family at a restaurant for luncn on the Thursday, party at the local golf club on the Saturday, Honeymoon in South Africa on the Tuesday. A nice compromise and we both thouroughly enjoyed it.

Probably best in the long run, Tesco are in the picture because they want to try to "control" the costs that they incur to repair your car on the girls' behalf and who knows what they might or might not do. They've already shown their devious hand to a degree by trying to "scare" you regarding the Albany costs, truth be told they know they will have to foot the bill anyway as thier client is at fault. -
its a ticking time bomb I think the post is saying, it can cause problems and isn't necessary (waste of money/effort) Hi all, There is really a couple of reasons it isn't really a good idea. 1: You're only human! If there is any air at all underneath and you haven't lacquered over them, then it is able to expand when hot and contract when cold without the restriction of the lacquer which won't flex anywhere near at all. If the caliper gets especially hot, it is likely to crack the lacquer over time. Perhaps it depends on the type of driver you are. Aluminium takes longer to heat up that cast, so Brembo's are probably less likely for this to happen to. 2: Brush Marks: So you have taken the time to paint your calipers and you're really happy with the results... Now you have your decals on. Do you really want to splurge lacquer on top? Lacquer is less forgiving on poor prep, so will show up any sins you may have left that were perhaps not as visible as before. In short, instead of buying lacquer to protect budget decals. Just buy good quality decals and make sure the surface is completely clean before applying. Also, if you can apply them to a warm surface, they will stick better to begin with. We use the best quality vinyl you can possibly get. The vinyl copes with high temps but more importantly, the glue is a high temp specific glue. I have never had a customer tell us that theirs have fallen off and we've been using this stuff for nearly 5 years now. By the way, if any of you are looking to buy our caliper paint, please see the link below. It is the same material we use at our premises for our customers brake calipers. Brake Caliper Paint We are also looking at selling our decals soon, we'll probably post on the forum once they are available. All the best guys, hope this helps out!

Fill your boots Craig, if the customer has told you what he's paying now, Then all you have to do is justify your quotation professionally Sent from my Zed using Nangkang tyres front, RE040's rear -

Hopefully it won't get serious. my main thinking was say with grundy, with both his wheels and his spoiler. Both times he's taken the mickey taking on the chin and carried out his mods and they both look absolutely great (IMO), but I know a lot of people wouldn't like it and would possibly get offended/upset. I think all my mods have been risk-ei I just do it to push the buttons of other members who will think I've destroyed my zed I've never been ripped off YET - I'm quite careful at looking into what I buy and who I buy it from. It's all about looking around and comparing, never jumping straight in with the first offer. -Unless you go to the Zed Shed and Keyser shoves a Strut bar and Wide boy body kit in your face Too rude to say no. But my only confession to keeping from the forum, was a curbing incident hey guys, Grundy kerbed his Zed!! Oh wait.... Sent from my Zed using Nangkang tyres front, RE040's rear

They may have roots in religion, but they're from from strictly religious festivals any more. Haven't been for at least 30 years. It's a poor argument, and one that's been done to death. I celebrate Christmas as I get time off work and spend it with family and friends. I celebrate Easter as I like chocolate. I celebrate Shrove Tuesday as I like pancakes. The origins of those festivals have zero meaning to me. i agree but if your so anti religion why you would celebrate something thats even the slightest linked to it was the point if you dont hate it like an atheist does then thats fine but it your 100% atheist and hate anything linked with the belief of god you would make a point of not doing any of them atheism is non belief not hatred per say Sent from my Zed using Nangkang tyres front, RE040's rear

It depends how touchy you are I guess. Yup fair play to grundy indeed in his case. My car is my car and that's what is important to me, of course I want other people to like it but the importantt thing to me is that I like it. If you can't stand the heat then stay out of the kitchen.

I'm afraid (and I hope I'm wrong) that this might push too many buttons for too many people and it WILL get serious. The first thing that I'd want to ask is, who is the trader in your case? Now you've publicised it that is a fair reaction and I think others may feel the same as we hate to see our fellow Zedders getting ripped off.

Tyreleader, camskills or black circles for starters
