Default Newly painted/polished Prodrive diff guard

Just painted and polished the diff guard.
I think you'll agree with me this look the nuts, and a little different to just the plain black.
Cant wait to get it fitted

I do like this Diff guards but haven't been able to justify they're expense. When you see images like this, it doesn't really help me !!

Looks very nice indeed Frayz, may have to get one very soon and let you loose with the paint. Looks like you got the colour match spot on.

Ha ha ha,

Youve been rehursing that line

Sent me those dimensions for your extinguisher bracket yet?

Need the distance between the seat bolt centres and the distance between your bolt centres of your extinguisher. Other extinguisher dimensions will help too

Chop chop and i'll make another one of these

PMSL,

Extract from the Urban Dictionary.

1.man fluThe condition shared by all males wherein a common illness (usually a mild cold) is presented by the patient as life-threatening.

This is also known as 'Fishing for Sympathy' or 'Chronic Exaggeration'.

When the patient is your boyfriend, he will exhibit the standard symptoms (such as an overwhelming desire for compassion) while simultaneously rejecting any and all efforts you make to placate him.
You: Awww, you poor fella.
Him: I'm DYING!
You: (Soothingly) Oh, you're not dying Cy.
Him: (Indignant) I AM! I have Man Flu!
You: Do you need some sympathy?
Him: Yes! But no one understands my pain...
You: I understa-
Him: NO YOU DO NOT!!!
