Jack_P Posted July 15, 2010 Author Share Posted July 15, 2010 Well i have been a busy boy it seems! All outer trim that was grey is now gloss black and some new pressed plates fitted :D Not after i clipped a weed sticking out of some bushes the other night resulting in this. Which after a rotor was as good as gold! :D so yes back to the car and with some crappy blackberry camera at hand, here is how it stood yesterday Then when i got home from work all parts had dried and was happy with them so on they went For me this is how it should have left the factory, i had been having slight thoughts on whether i liked it that much but now its more individual then im happy to say that all is well :D Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack_P Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 Well little as changed, tbh im actually pretty much back to where i started. Walked outside my house this morning n was looking over the bonnet when this happened..... Off she came! Nothing else to report other than service + MOT coming up end of november and its returning a glorious 27mpg :D Chow fo now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S666LER Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Looks alot better without the vinyls on the bonnet. Oh where did you get the plates made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatty36 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Really do like the pressed plates, I would love them for mine but i'm not too sure how it would look :S! Lovely car mate, should be proud ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_P Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 Cheers :) S666LER Bought them off eBay i think £16 or £18 for both? Very very good quality aswell :) Beatty i was a bit scepital when i first thought but when i saw them on another ST i went for it :) i have seen some on a mk7 zs and look good :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael P Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 I quite liked the vinyl on the bonnet, looked better in person than in pictures. Still looking snazzy, not keen on pressed plates in deuchlandish but each to their own. Still love the colour :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyedge Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Aren't those plates illegal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james_60 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 probably but i have seen loads on black vw golfs. and some with the numberplates to hand on the dashboard for when dealing with the tripod camera of speed. Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack_P Posted December 10, 2010 Author Share Posted December 10, 2010 Right then time for a little update Focus RS splitter i now have ready to fit, but its looking alot harder to fit than i first thought, so will have to fidn some time to get it on some stands and get right underneath it! My silvatec bulbs have turned up aswell so its time for the headlight de-tango that it needs! Also been looking at performance mods. K&N57i cone filter for the induction, and this.. My link Aswell as one of these My link Now cost of those three items is about £540. So i also saw this at £799 and am thinking this is better value? My link Thoughts on what is the right buy? The latter pack for 799 is called the st171 kit ( guess the power ) yet i know that just a K&N57i Filter and a flexy have been known to add on 15bhp, and then i still have the cat back to fit! So debating ideas, thought it put it out there and see what people would recommend Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_P Posted December 18, 2010 Author Share Posted December 18, 2010 Well anyway this morning i thought id get up and decide to take some skin off my knuckles..What a pain in the !Removed! it was to do! First one took twice as long as the 2nd time round. But id like to say its now much improved :D ( its a detango if you really cant guess ;) ) Next job, splitter All comments welcome!

MartynS Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 You got the orange plastic out in one piece then On a serious note though, it's looking good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_P Posted December 18, 2010 Author Share Posted December 18, 2010 You got the orange plastic out in one piece then On a serious note though, it's looking good. Its the only way of getting them out without splitting the lamps altogether, You just take out the main lamp, get two pairs of needle nose pliers inside it and just basically crush it. Seems drastic but is an easy way of doing it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael P Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Looking good! I might detango the MX-5, doesn't involve any plastic crushing fortunately! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_P Posted December 29, 2010 Author Share Posted December 29, 2010 Right then, todays struggle was the splitter. Crikey is it a tight fit! Its pretty secure on but may still add some more screws so its well and truely ott in place :) Opinions? I think it looks more dark and smoked and im liking it alot :D Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
