I like the way you've parked about three feet from the kerb for fear of scuffing them!

Either that or you park like a woman

His eyes glaze over when he hears "stretch" and "rims" in the same sentence.

detangoed and sprayed black look so much better
spraying the grill is no probs but I think my wife will go a bit crazy if
she finds me putting my headlights in the oven
I will have to keep a eye out for somebody selling headlights that are already detangoed

two birds one stone with the urn as it looks good in the bay and I can make cups of coco with it when away camping as well

the XXR's are in the cupboard for the time being,
there has already been a few people offering to buy them but I am keeping them for spares

A heatgun is better, hairdryer will just take a bit longer, oven is best bet, but you have to keep an eye on them, otherwise they may melt

You know I have something to say its regarding your missus Richard.

She said and I quote " Richards got a *** the size of a budgies toenail "
Well thats what I think she said as she was bent over a chair
and I was not the only fella in the room and she did have here mouth full at the time.

You can tell her norrie said she was the best fiver he had ever spent though

Cheers

Yes its on bc coilovers with the rear arches rolled and 5mm spacers on front wheels

The front is perfect height but the rears i still have lower around a half inch maybe a little bit more.
Have not had the time to lower the rear recently but when i get time that will be done as well.
