Ok fair enough matey, I think I'll get the geo checked out when I have the tyres changed, the nankangs are appalling so would you say the rack raiser and slider are work it in all honesty ?

[Rollerdan]

Rack riser is a definite improvement and you may aswell do the slider whilst your there , i seen that the sliders do fail more commonly on pre face eps . Im running michelin pe2 ! Coming from ad08s the grip isnt as good but nearly there and the wet grip is unreal! Better in the wet than the dry!

[Rollerdan]

My headlights have slowly been hazing for a while now so thought id tackle them !
Had some old rotarty pads and some plastic compound so made a start !



Came up like new not bad considering it only took 20mins!
Respray front end is next stone chips are depressing me when cleaning haha

[Rollerdan]

Will add pics of the finished headlights after a wash

[Rollerdan]

Pics of the exhaust fitted needs tweeking as its knocking on the rear anit roll bar , nice and quiet on normal drive but a lovely roar on vtec ! Well happy




Also got myself a flush plug cover ordered black but sent me bare aluminium so need to get that powder coated !

[Rollerdan]

Excuse the shocking pics haha

[Ollie milanoctr]

Teg exhaust is awesome, we are going have similar spec'd ctrs soon I'm after a flush plug cover when I have had the rocker cover refurbed lol, why you getting it powder coated? Just paint it yourself the plug cover doesn't get that hot

Loving the exhaust dude its the perfect setup for me ! I was thinking of painting it myself but i know il mess it up haha . Need my rear anti roll bar powdercoated anyways as its looking scabby . So will get them things done and my wheels . But picking a colour is proving hard !

[Rollerdan]

Fitted my flush plug cover earlier today. After a quick coat of satin black does not look to bad !

[Rollerdan]

[Rollerdan]
