DILLIGAF?: Project Ratty

@80bac81103=Ryan:
Theres a few scuffs in one side of it though so I'd say it'd need a lick of paint ideally!
I'll have to check how much postage is. I'll PM you when I know! :)
Sir you are a star. I'm not bothered by a few scuffs really. As you said, I'll be giving a fresh lick of paint and also the Leon splitter too to match. A fine mix for a lower front end look :)

New Plates :D
and if you're wondering what it says at the bottom:

Another day off work another bit of boredom and more paint (and beer in the sun :D).
Now I'm thinking of following suit with the bonnet and spraying that matt black (would cover all the scratches anyway!).

Nice! Looks well.
One thing to think about is that my mate has a custom matt black Vespa, somehow some petrol got spilt on it and it bolloxed the finish, so if you do the bonnet matt just make sure petrol doesn't end up getting onto it. Matt is easy to touch up though all the same.

Funny you should say this Ryan…........
One question…... How would I get petrol on the front end of my car or my spoiler (unless I was drunk of course-but then I shouldn't be driving ;) )?

Me too, my old civic was all matt black, easy to look after and covers any blemishes easily.

I've gotten some petrol on the bonnet before, left a jerry can on it after filling up a Vespa.

So, took a trip down to North Lincolnshire last night to go see my folks and have an early 30th celbration (11th of May guys! ;) ).
This weekend coincides with RSCS at Lincoln Show Ground so I thought I might pop along and see what was happening, so Saturday morning was spent cleaning the car out of dog hairs and playing with my new toy thanks to my beautiful girlfriend, a car polisher.
The results of using a powered polisher compared to just good ol' elbow grease is immense, it's just a shame I made the trip down the A15 only to discover it was going to cost me £20 so I could look at other peoples cars for about an hour, I would have paid it if I hadn't have turned up at 4pm and planned on staying for longer but I just turned back and went to the pub instead….

Jebus, that looks minty clean now! :D

Cheers fella. I can't tell what it looks like on the pics cuz I'm on my 'rents PC with budget screen that has a funny blue tinge to it but in reality it's, as they say, "blinging!".

I'm hoping to get a lip sorted out from our good man Ryan and I would love to get an exhaust sorted for it soon too to replace the dirty pea shooter but funds are tight at the moment :(

So I've got back from Lincolnshire and I've decided to set aside a plan for Bert. It's simple, clear all the annoying bits about the car that I hate at the moment and then next year get to work on it properly.
So here goes in order of what I want to do, so if anyone can help out please let me know.
*Front bumper (no damage as mine is ratty as hell!)
*Nearside front wing (no damage as mine, erm, is)
*V6 splitter (any colour but preferably black)
*New window seals all round
*Exhaust system (or a decent backbox!)
*Lowering
*Performance HT leads (red)
*Braided Brake lines (blue)
*Bigger brakes and discs
