    Alloy painting

    If you was gonna have it done proffesionally you'd be much better off getting them powder coated. It's much more durable than paint & it'll never start to flake. Seen lots of painted rims over the years & the majority look tatty after a few years of road salt, poor up keep & shabby cleaning...

    Are Vinyl wraps on cars a good option?

    Don't you think "morons" is a but harsh? I just call them leyman. Lol. It's only really car people & people who laminate carbon fibre & fibreglass who can see straight off that it's fake. I do totally agree with ya in that there is no substitute for the real thing but £75 in vinyl is cheaper...

    1.8 Upgrade

    You'll find it hard to get the car legal if you do it yourself. The law was changed a little while ago to stop people doing dodgy conversions. All cars have to be inspected & given a "super MOT" to show the work was done compitently & that's it's not dangerous. You also have to provide all...

    Are Vinyl wraps on cars a good option?

    My mate does vinyl wrapping & if it's done properly it looks sick. You should never have bubbles or flaps anywhere, that's bad fitment. I've got carbon vinyl on my bonnet, bootlid & gurney flap & it fools people all day long. I did stump up for quality vinyl though & that makes a huge...

    More power needed!!!

    Oh I forgot to say that I was running the pioneer amp with a 740 amp lead battery & the power cap with single 8gauge power cable to run a 10" pioneer & 12" fusion subs with the gain on full with no problems in both my escorts.

    More power needed!!!

    I've got a MgF Trophy & getting a constant power supply to my sub amp is proving to be a total pig. I've currently got a standard 85 amp alternator, the standard alternator to battery cable plus 170 amp cable along side. My battery is a 900 amp gel cell with 2 8gauge cables to a 1.7 farad power...

    Any MGF owners out there with tuning tips?

    When I brought my MgF Trophy 160 it had the wrong size & type of tyre, (195/45/16 & an unknown brand) on the rear & it handled like a sack... It felt like I was skating on ice even in the dry. Fitted up the right 215/40/16 Goodyear Eagle F1's & wow an amazing difference. The F & Tf were designed...

    Hi to 1 & all. I'm new to the site & like the look of what I see so far & love the fact that it's not tied to a brand. I've had a few modified cars over the years inc a Saxo, a couple of Sierra Saphires, a 3dr mk6 Escort & mk6 Escort Cabriolet but for the last couple of years I've had my beloved...
