Not this month but my to do list for the future is:

 

1. Eibach springs

2. P3

3. Probably new tyres

4. Tax :angry:

5. Lip kit

6. Carbon bonnet and eyelids

7. Tints

8. Plenum spacer

 

That will do for the moment.

 

 

 

 

More browsing and dreaming thinking this will make my 4 years no claims come round quicker. :blush::lol:

 

 

What do you need 4 years NCB for? I have zero now after my claim and it's only gonna cost me £600 next year. :lol:

I'll pop mine up as well...

 

1. New discs all round

2. Get the stickers on for Le Mans!

3. Fit the rest of my Summit bracing

4. Plenum space & MREV2 plenum

5. Lowering springs

6. Some kind of chip, not sure of piggyback or full replacement yet

7. Full respray, pro detailing and a healthy dose of Armourfend

8. Engine swap if I keep the car long enough

 

 

And hopefully in that order too! First three will be done very shortly, others may take a while longer but I'll get there eventually.

7. Full respray, pro detailing and a healthy dose of Armourfend

 

Sounds cool bud, what colour you going with ?

Ummm... Azure blue! I wasn't entirely sure on the colour at first, but it's really grown on me and I'd just like to get it perfect as it should be, and the only realistic way of doing that is a respray as the car is stonechipped to buggery :(

 

I'd like to try something different, but unless I strip the car right back to a bare shell there'll always be a remnant of the old colour there, and as much as that shouldn't hurt the resale value I know it will, so I'm trying to be a little sensible as well.

Totally agree with staying with Azure.Just make sure it's not as thin or ripply as how Nissan applied it.
