Its awsome mate, really sounds devilish :twisted: I'll take you a rip sometime if your intrested. Saving up at the moment to hopefully get the power up to a healthy 240-250 :twisted:

I know I get on like a kid at xmas when I see another EP3 there arent many about over here just loads of FN2s.


i know whats the craic with fn2's? they're all over the place around me too lol.... EP3 or FD2 ftw!!!
Nice wheels mate they look class on the Cosmic.... Paint your callipers lol make them stand out a bit better :twisted:
Looking very tasty otherwise lol. did i see you pricing a set of coilovers off ai???
:lol: You did indeed mate, thinking of dropping her a wee bit and getting a fast road set up done......not 100% yet if I'll do it (as you know why :lol: ) But i'll think about it for a while. Was going paint the calippers but dont have axel stands etc and patience lol but I would like to do it down the line.

Far too many FN2s about its like EP3s are a dieing species over here for some strange reason. Cheers mate, the wheels are love or hate for most people, but its different than the norm so I love them, havent yet seen another cosmic over here with white rims......unique FTW :twisted: :lol:

So after seeing some carbon dashes I thouight what the hell so over the last few weeks Ive had this done for me by Tony1965 top fella kept me well informed and did a very good job of the cash very happy with it. The dash isnt as shiney as others cause it was finished a little different, which I like to be honest I thinf if it was to shiny it would look out of place with the rest of the black dash, but it needs a little clean rather grubby as ive only just fitted it.

I was going to get a black fasia for the stereo but on closer inspection it would only work if I had an aftermarket head unit. But I dont mind the silver/carbon look, mightnt look just as good as all black but I can certainly live with it no problem.

As Mr insurance is being a pain about any other performance mods Im just doing all the "small bits" I other wise probably would of been on my "to do" list that I would never of done. Next on the list is JDM carbon door sills should be here sometime next week, then when a set of JDM wind deflectors comes up i'll be trying to get them but might just bite the bullet and get a new set along with some JDM mats :twisted:

The more I look at it the more I think i'll have to buy a new stero to fit the black surround but I dont want to take it all off again :lol:

Cheers mate, yea no problem, I bought a second hand lovwer and upper dash bits from barney_bus for 40 quid then to get it carboned + p.p was 150. So all in all it was 190. Not bad I thought since the JDM carbon stuff that just sticks on is around that price if not more.

Not bad at all, so has the carbon been laid over the bought dash or has he made a mould out of it?

Its been laid over, mind you the back was silver on the one I took off but black on the one he gave me back, not that that matters. When fitting the carbon one back on it slotted into place with no problem what so ever all the clips met up perfectly.

Good work...I like it...but isn't the idea of the use carbon to decrease weight not increase it? :-D
