Cheers - Induction kit is a Carbon Simota.Not sure if available now as i got it perhaps 7 years ago ? Have just bought another filter a week or so ago,and had another 'mini-blinging' session under the hood with a few new bits and pieces. Will add pics when its dry outside :y:

Cheers,cheers,cheers. Just ordered a smiley / meshed grill this morning (This car will break me the rate im going lately).


Oh,and with the rain this morning i realised how much i would miss the rear wiper.So im cancelling the de-wipering.Might re-consider come summer !!!

sevenfourate 26th October 2009 14:14

Quick update...

Off work today so fitted new meshed smiley grill (Pic crap as car in shade)

Also piccies to show towing eye cover painted satin black :homme:

And new (non leaking) brake fluid resevoir cap,new air-filter and couple of stickers to brighten the bay up a bit:







Desperately waiting on headlight inserts to arrive so i can 'go smoked'.Bloody Royal Mail !

Ive also got a bright red Piper vernier under that cambelt cover. Anyone made a bracket to keep the hose that runs over the top of it out of the way so the cover can be safely removed ???? Pictures please ????

De-wipered the rear this morning (And removed 3rd brake light because of the bloody squeeking):



And removed washer jet and got a grommet for that too:



BTW: Fuck Hellfrauds prices for grommets ! I got a pack of two 19mm grommets for the rear window,and two packs of 8mm,10mm and 13mm grommets for the washer hole for £1.55 from Wilco's if theres one near you.......

About to smoke my headlights as soon as the new inserts im waiting for arrive. Then rear spoiler will be re-painted in satin black and im considering doing the mirror caps also to continue the theme....

To remove the wiper jet housing - that squirts the water ?

Just twisted it and pulled it out of the roof (You get a good view of underneath it if the boot is open).Then i folded the water pipe that leads to it in two at the end,and tie-wrapped the end closed so i couldnt get any leaks. Then i simply pushed it back into the hole behind the 3rd brake light (Which i was also removing at the same time).

Voila !

(And BTW: You may find a please and thank-you will help you in life enormously :-) )
