Full 3" Milltek might be back up for grabs. The potential buyer has gone quiet!

a roof wrap or paint?

if wrap.. don't do gloss, it'll show the marks too easy and do your head in. Satin/matt is so much easier to maintain

Was thinking Gloss wrap, but thanks for the heads up Salsa, I'm now thinking Satin.

Disappointed they didn't mention Gloss being tricky to maintain.

Although he had Satin on his new Focus RS.

In the end my hand was forced, they used all the satin on the RS and not enough left for mine.

It looks good for now though, bit of an R205 look going on.

So a shout out for wrap concepts in Basildon.

Is the spoiler wrapped too? if so looks pretty good, I tried to do it but gave up. Did they do it in a single piece or 2 pieces?

I also have a typeR so i hope it has similar feel as that.

Have you got this back yet to report on? I'm keen to get this done, but really want a kit to do myself rather than sending the pump away.

Need to get a better pic, it's so reflective.
Wife commented it looks sleeker somehow and I agree I'm really happy with it.

R205 diffuser is on the list, but post Brexit it's now £277 from Japanparts.

Yes, spoiler is wrapped, I've not examined it closely, can do later. Although it certainly seems a good job, I would imagine there is a join somewhere.

I have it back but car is still in garage waiting on some whiteline Bushings to arrive and now a Milltek exhaust to fit too, i will report back when i get to drive it. I'm not sure what exactly they do to the pump. Maybe contact Litchfied and they might sell you the kit to changing the valving yourself.

Default Biggest bodge ever?

So i wanted red stitching on my seats to match gaiters etc.

Instead of paying hundreds or even 000's getting a full retrim, i invested in a fabric marker

This is a total bodge, but the results are quite surprisingly ok. Given the level of investment I'm very happy.

A steadyish hand and a wet wipe for any errors is all you need to go with the pen.

It fades a bit orangey over time, but looks exactly like 8 year old red stitch i would say.

Really wish they had done red stitching in the 1st place ! Seats and mats should've had it.

So far I've fitted pioneer sat nav/DVD double din and underseat rainbow intelli 10" sub/amp. But think standard speakers are rubbish.
Thanks in advance all
