cheers guys 
yes si, the red has gone and been replaced with stealthy black (on the advice of cliff)..went and painted the white lettering last weekend..only reason I havent posted a pic is because it looks like my 3 year old has done them with a 4" brush, whilst having a fit of hiccups
1st time you have seen the fog covers as well ...
lip is back on, but god knows what it will look like when the FMIC goes on..all hacked up

my kids love it for some reason, keep on getting me to put my brake on and then they run around the back ...bit of a pain when we are moving though

Looking good chris, The fog covers look soooooooo much better than the mesh ones.
She'll look great with a FMIC and the lip will just cover the bottom of the core that sticks down a little.
oh and brembo's are the in thing for DBM classics

), so instead of my usual slapdash way of modding..i.e buy it, try to bung it in/on, if it fails use cable ties and instead am going to attack this a bit more methodically. I have sourced the intercooler, pipework, heat wrap, metal ties, miklor clamps, now all I need is the bracket for the numberplate,the extra samco hosing (for near the battery terminal), some mates to help me, bacon for the sarnies and a free dry weekend
Loving the brembo mate, must be something in the water in wales me thinks..wish I had the cash, i will just have to reply on my razor like reactions instead

Very nice I do like the newer models. Looks like I'm not the only one who lives out in the sticks. Who's flaps are those?

aye nothing but my hareem of ladies in the front (baaa-haaa
) and fields behind me I dont know, its all flaps and **** tonight
Mud flaps are the usual suspect, scottlowe. Scott's a decent chap and I Think his prices have come down now, his brackets have got better in quality, but they still seem expensive to other suppliers..but you get what you pay in terms of quality. There are cheaper versions on ebay of course.

Chris I have a suggestion for you, front mount pipework..... I would be tempted to look into getting the pipework coated in some way before fitting, even if they are new. After watching a lot of people fit them the pipework always seems so go scabby after 12 months or so then it's a big job to remove re-coat and re-fit when it's your daily runner, I think I would look into getting this job done now then cover them with bubble wrap and tape fit them and then remove the covers to avoid scratches.
What do you think matey ?

what do you suggest I get it coated with ?
The pipe over the turbo is going to be heatwrapped (silver tape), maybe the right one as well, but I guess the ones that lead to the I/C on both sides are the likely ones...
any suggestions welcomed as always

Good suggestion of si, Mine have been on 18 months and need to be painted, Not that much of hassle for me as it's not my daily drive. Water gets in via the scoop, as said the pipes even though they are alloy and crome, still get marked, the winter salt just eats the crome.
Have them powder coated, Just pick a colour of your choice, Not pink though!!!!!
