G/f has only gone and surprised me by getting me some new rear tail lights ( late bday pressie ) :D Everyone has been going on about how much this is the NO.1 mod to get and I have to agree the difference is brilliant. Looks a real demon from the rear now :yahoo:

 

So before shot with standards lights:

Comparison shot of new and old:

End result:

Well had a couple of days free and thought I would go ahead with doing the rear strut brace as it it was scratched and marked. Previous onwer ovbviously thought he could get two golf bags in the boot or something :blush:

 

Sorry about some of the photo's taken with the ole mobile.

 

Scratched and marked

I used a plastic ruler to help remove the trim, ruler only snapped once :lol:

Got mine yesterday and it's going on today :yahoo: You are very welcome to use my ramp at my workshop but it's a bit of journey from Hampshire to South Wales! I was going to fit it as soon as it arrived but i decided to paint a few things on the underside of my car before i fitted it and painted it as well :bangin:

I've also got to take off the silver 19's i fitted and get the black racing harts back on as they look nicer, fit my new brake lines, bleed my new Brembo's (properly this time!!) , fit some nice tunes and some carbon bits then i'm done for 5 minutes :teeth:

Sounds like your going to be busy Dave :) Mighty kind of you to offer and I think South Wales maybe a little to far. Let us know how you get on with your exhaust :thumbs:

 

Well you'd be very welcome :thumbs: Fitted my Cobra exhaust today and i'm really pleased with it, the fitment is good and the exhaust note is really nice. I went for the resonated system as i didn't want a repeat of the K1 exhaust i've just removed :teeth:

You'll be pleased with it! At first start up i though it was a little too quiet but when you give it a blip it sounds really good and pretty much just the note i wanted. I've had a few titainium systems of late and they seem to sound exactly right but as they cost several times more this is spot on :teeth: I've got a system there from Ganador for an RX7 and that was $3500 just for the back box.............at that money i like my Cobra!!!!

I have done a quick vid when it came off the ramps, having issues getting it across from mobile to computer at the moment :bang: Either way will do a proper HD vid soon enough I hope :teeth:
