LINCOLNSHIRESLUPOGTI Posted December 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 I totally agreee, I hate the rear lights, bought them when they first came out as could not find anything else I liked...thing was, I think I only liked the 'Lexus style' ones for about a week!I did the steering wheel myself (well the red section at the bottom), have since done handbrake handle red and front section of gearknob red.No problems at with any of the leather apart from the slight stretching on the base of the drivers seat. No leather will peel off as it is all folded over at edges and secured to the back of the panel it is attached to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The subtle modder Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 i didnt necessaryily mean peeling off as mine never did that on the cinq it was more than where i had pressed it into the contours etc it had started to lift out and go as a flat panel if you know what i mean, so is your still all flat etc? and what adhesive did you use? i used 3m spray glue which was highly recomendedthankswayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LINCOLNSHIRESLUPOGTI Posted December 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 the contours etc it had started to lift out and go as a flat panelSorry, i know what you mean now as the front door cards started to do that at first. I used Evostick contact adhesive (about 3 tins worth) and up until now all has been fine (have been through a summer with the sun shining on them as well).Exhaust has been real good as well, been on over 2 years now and no problems so far. Cannot fault exhausts uk. Just got to watch them and make sure they do a proper job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Your car looks as great as ever and those throttle bodies look fantastic. So was it all worth while? Is there quite a bit of difference in the performance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
