Kent Posted October 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) I'm not sure where I can put it though, was thinking under the seat like a tray built in with a draw as I don't adjust my seat.I just need the funds, I plan on doing a few bits and bobs over the winter like building wheels out as they're coming off car then and possibly manifold & exhaust system. Just waiting for Kam-Racing to send me a video of the system fitted to his car.and here's a little picture my mate took the other night while I was paying for fuel. Only taken on his phone but I quite liked it!mattys foto by LupoGTi Photography, on Flickr Edited October 14, 2011 by Kent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Posted November 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 ^^ Thanks a lot I really owe you both oneUnfortunately I don't even work at Argos to give you discount on anything ... I can take a pen from work and possibly a notepad? No benefits of the job :'(Got my MOT booked in for tuesday, dreading it as really don't want to spend money this time as I've been saving for ages for something I've always wanted! (Car related). If all goes ok on the MOT, i've already spoken to the insurance & that's fine... I'll order it on the day! EXCITING MUCH!So hopefully there will be an update soon, one I'm quite excited about... and for those thinking it's a supercharger/1.8 lump/air... I'm a student so nothing QUITE that big unfortunately I'm that excited I cleaned the car again as it was blue sky today, then the mrs decided to drag me to merry hill, and made me drive :lParked as far away from anyone as possible and came back and so wish I had the SLR, my iPhone 3g had to do but it looks terribleah well maybe next time, then on way home got pulled over by the police in my street as they nosed at my car haha, both of them were friendly and chatty before going off. :D:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Thankyou very much guys!!! And yeah I saw the fast car mag as my mate told me about it. My car was on the back & just a small pic in there hehe, thanks for telling me though! MOT passed which I was happy about, apparently they had to lift it onto the ramps aswell haha, wish I could have seen that! Now onto the final bit of saving for the Kam Racing 4-1 manifold, straight through and exhaust system. I can afford it.... BUT would mean I'd have about £9.20 left in the bank so trying to get as many hours as poss at work!and I STILL haven't put the standard wheels back on for the winter, but luckily it's been mild so far although hit 4 degrees today so need to get a move on before the ice and salt kills them!Not sure if I can afford to build them out over winter which is gutting with me wanting the exhaust system and havin to buy people prezzies! boo hoo I just wish I had money, grrrrrr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Posted November 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Met up with a couple of mates for a few pictures as they've both just splashed out on their cars too.Quite happy with how they came out, only annoying thing is I didn't have a tripod so a few turned out blurry. Here are the better ones though!!DSC02353 by LupoGTi Photography, on FlickrDSC02355 by LupoGTi Photography, on FlickrDSC02357 by LupoGTi Photography, on FlickrDSC02360 by LupoGTi Photography, on FlickrDSC02310 by LupoGTi Photography, on FlickrLoopFiesta by LupoGTi Photography, on FlickrDSC02317 by LupoGTi Photography, on FlickrDSC02285 by LupoGTi Photography, on FlickrDSC02322 by LupoGTi Photography, on FlickrDSC02370 by LupoGTi Photography, on FlickrSorry for so much self-whoring, just thought it would be the last time before summer so made the most of it & the fact I never use my camera! :-(Oh and on another note, I'm still winning my competition, only 2 days left!!http://www.theultimatefinish.co.uk/Competition/Entry.aspx?EntryId=1418 ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Posted December 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Sorry it didn't seem alert me to your PM, I also went through about 4 pairs of sidelights looking for a match. The ones I have are actually off eBay as I'd tried everywhere else and they were either too white, too yellow or too blue.Just checked through my feedback and these are the ones I bought.. although no longer sold by them although they have others:http://www.ebay.co.u...#ht_2103wt_1313I'd say try these: http://www.ebay.co.u...=item4842ec9030but obviously haven't used them so can't say if they're the same or not! Sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thissy Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 ^ Thanks for that mate.. I managed to find the ones you have from the same company. There just not advertised on ebay anymore.Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
