    arch rolling

    Best way to find out is lower it mate and then go from there, if it does scrub then yes you will need to roll your arches......few ways you can go about this; A) pikey way......heat gun and a rubber mallet hire a arch roller C) Give archenemy a call and get it done professionally D) get the 4 1/2" grinder out And cut the lip and then put a piece of rubber around the sharp edge or fold the lips up
  2. Some pop outs are on the cards mate and that desirable sunroof is causing me some grief at the minute, think I need a new motor for it and will replace the seal whilst I'm at it
  3. Looking good mate, and tbh mate I hate it having scratches but I can't afford to have it all done so no point at the minute

  6. Cheers mate and Oil, oil filter, air filter, fuel filter, spark plugs, cambelt kit, water pump and gearbox oil change mate.
  7. With it being my 21st today and actually having some money spare I decided to treat the car to a major service for peace of mind The arsenal cost me £142.00 for the parts and around £70 labour to fit them not bad £210 for a full service really Hopefully getting it fitted next week sometime, should be running like a new one also whilst up on the ramps I'm changing the gearbox oil Only small updates I'm afraid as saving for the house is swallowing funds up and insurance and tax is due in may
  8. ahh cheers mate didnt think of that, ill message him now.
  9. Could someone please tell me what grade the recommended gear box oil is fo the above ? looking to give the car a full service so whilst im at may aswell get them to chage the gearbox oil too........... also price from those who have done it would be handy..... Cheers Dan
  10. If doing by hand I'd give AG super resin polish a go and then use a wax of your choice. Could even throw in a glaze in between the above like poor boys black hole, heard from a few that it works rather well on a red although I'm yet to use it. I have used the AG SRP though with a coat of dodo juice supernatural and got the following results; The above was achieved with the following method; Rinse 2bm with CG citrus wash and gloss Rinse Clayed 2bm again Rinse Dried using mf drying towel 2 goings over with AG SRP (by hand) 1 coat of DJ supernatural
  11. Autobrite magifoam with the autobrite hd lance, well what can I say about this product........it's awesome, good dwell time and even on my first time got a decent consistency cleans superbly and if looking for a quick wash method in the likes of winter months etc I think this would be a great product to have in the detailing cupboard as although I proceed with a 2bm always if you wish you could easily snow foam with magifoam and rinse and leave the car and have a good clean car after the rinse stage no 2bm involved Pics of magifoam in action
