  1. er.....no Not liking those at all Im afraid mate.
  2. Think its part of the Bluetooth/phone setup IIRC (assuming yours is a GT)
  3. Who would of thought that this collection of vagrants and miscreants would prove helpful to someone!
  4. Im no expert, but that looks like the standard one. Dont quote me on that though.
  5. cheers for all the advice guys. Gunna get a pro to do it, and get the car detailed at the seem time. Too many contradicting ideas from people for me to be happy to do it myself. Hope the council cough up for some of it though! Wonder if they'll pay Craig from Muddy to come all the way over here!
  6. Sarnie. He not only comments on spacers, but actually knows some stuff!
  7. Im just gunna do a atest clay to put my own mind at rest. will drive me bonkers waiting till Monday not knowing how big a job it'll be. If they admit liability, I'll get them to pay for a pro detailer to sort it out (if it will come off with clay that is)
  8. I'll get the clay bar on it tomorrow. Ive phoned council, and they are sending out someone to look at the car on Monday. Apparantly they hadnt informed my mum that they intended to paint the doors, so if it is gunna be a paintshop job then I may be able to get compensation.
  9. Just knowing that someone has managed to get it off before is a big help
  10. Plenty of cars on the market, so hold out till you find the perfect car at the right price for you. It'll be out there somewhere!
  11. So, currently I am fuming. Just been shopping, and when I got back to the car park there was a huge Pajero parked next to me. So out of my usual paranoia I looked round the car to make sure it had no dings. Luckily it didnt. What I did discover though was that the back of my car is covered in small flecks of blue paint. Its all over the rear bumper, boot, rear window, spoiler, and both quarter panels. It was dark when Id picked my car up after getting back from sea, and then the back of the car was minging filthy by the next day when it was light so i hadnt noticed it. After having a think Ive realised its been done when the council painted the garage doors of where my car is stored when Im away. Some paint had managed to flick through the small gaps in the wood. So its been on for almost 2 months. So, how the hell do I get it off? Or is it gunna be a VERY expensive trip to a paint shop??? Cheers Al ( A very gutted Al)
  12. Not sure if I'll be able to get up North for a shoot before the closing date I'll just have to keep the pics and enter them next year!
  13. Droooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

  15. I dunno, You go and do something sensible like fitting an Amuse front nose, then you go turn the headlights into something that look like they sat in a worky mans club for a month getting smoked out!
  16. Welcome from another Northerner matey! Have a hunt around, all the info is here. Then ask what you cant find!

  18. Cheers for the welcomes The 2 nr death experiances: 1/ Whilst the shore crane was lowering a hatchlid back onto the boat, one side of its wire brakes failed, and the lid slewed round violently, missing me and one of the stevedores by about 3 ft. That shook me up quite a bt 2/ The day I was getting off! Tieing the ship up in Thamesport, my relief had charge and I was just helping the AB's. Relief wasnt watching what he was doing and continued heaving on the wrong winch.Mooing line parted and snapped back, missed my righ arm by mere inches. There are days my job sucks.
  19. I'll be there for a cuppa and a ganders at it when it arrives!
  20. You've seen how tall Laura is! Would you argue??
  21. Cheers Martin! Ive headed over that way
  22. Cheers guys Its nice to be missed! I got off the boat on Monday, but spent 2 nights visiting gf's family, so only been back a few hours. I shoulda checked this thread before making my own! (sorry Martin!)
  23. 9 weeks, 4 continents, 8 countries, 2 near death experiences, and a sprained shoulder later, and Im home! Ok, so 1407 unread topics (got a feeling theres alot more than tat but they kept getting purged!) what I miss? How many more people have got same wheels as me now? Who's new? Who's left?
