sorry liam meant to say front bumper
I guess it takes a while to get from 30 to 40 in this so you have longer to be aware of what speeds your doing
Did you just fibreglass over the fog holes or did you fit the blanking plates in there first? and then flush the remains? not sure which way to make mine when I get time...
Looking pretty sweet compared to how it was a while ago! keep it up!

well cruise last night was good boomed the car for ages got a decent crowd expanding foam has made a good difference boot isn't flexing any more middle of the roof is solid but now the front of the roof and the screen is flexing allot more need alternator sorted asap was sat at 11.5 most the night and 1 of my profile fours kept cutting out
after about 2 hours of booming i started hearing a loud bang one of the rear subs was moving so much it was hitting the back plate and the ports heres was happened
coil cooked and popped (subs where very hot)
it was wanging so much it smashed the former
the cone started ripping from the surround about 60% of it came apart
then the coil came away from the cone and is jammed under the spider
atleast i killed it properly

thanks i think lol
well about time i got my roof sorted from the last year its been coverd in duck tape after braking it at mod nats last year and it also got dented by someone being on the roof.
well i expanding foamed the roof to make it stronger as it still flexed loads even with the 1" mdf so as i done that it burst thru the sun roof so all the duck tape had to come off.
dont have the money to go put a flat roof skin on plus it would pos mean getting the install out. so ive had todo this (i could of riverted a plate over but aint funds and the facy will mean take the mdf ect down).
well i got a quote to get the roof vinyl'd and it was £180 plus me having to get the windscreen removed witch would of bumped the costs closer to £300 and theres no way im paying that so i went shop and got some of this Black vinyl £7.50 1st time ive done vinyl work and it came out pretty good only thing is i forked up and didnt think the expanding foam would show thru as bad as it does. so plan is redo the roof in a cuple weeks and fiberfill the sunroof to blend it in more

tools of a pro a screw driver and a butter knife lol best things to tuck the vinyl under the windscreen with
