what did you use to get the grain effect back onto the repaired cracks ? i might attack my 3 door dash but might need a mixer as there's so many cracks to fill

Started to build the dash up but haven't got time to fit it till later, fixed a few now including rs1600i one I'm doing at the moment
Thinking of upgrading the rear brakes was looking at the reyland kits that use the 4x4 calipers 300mm, any body using them ?

im on the lookout for a dash to repair,im not taking mine back out until I have one repaired so can hopefully swap them out in the same day.
the guy that done mine mucked it up,i think its too far gone,i could have done a better job myself.
no issues fitting the brakes mate,i had some dust shields made to fit 300mm discs,can you retain the standard dust shields with the 300mm kit?

As I have my spare dash repaired and ready to fit I decided to make a cover to protect it from the sun at shows, made it out of grey vinyl top (close as I can get to original colour so doesn't stick out) and a soft fleece underside with a black edging
Came out ok I think
Didn't get many pics of it at fastford this year but was a good day
As the cars booked in at MSD in October for the L8 fitting with the antilag & launch control, going to change a few bits ready before it goes.
Got a new Bosch 044 pump & filter
IK 27`s
Cap & arm
Kevlar dump valve diaphragm
On the way to fordfair was the first time ive had a chance to really see the difference with the brake upgrade to the Brembos, made a big difference good upgrade mi thinks!

Very nice indeed Si,love the dash cover and the new brake set up, good work.I bet the brakes are a million miles better than standard set up.I have standards on my new sapp and it's damn scary at times.I would like this sort of set up, I was also looking at the e38 kits from Caprisport.

So after coming home from ford fair the car had a slight hesitation on light throttle, sorted fela decided to have a look around
And found this
The dump valve diaphragm was ripped to bits
So changed it for a Kevlar item IK27's
Then got new fuel pump and filter to fit and maybe making some braided fuel lines up with an fittings

Made a new stereo surround today using a spare piece of dash I had, because its a flip screen this is the only place it can go.
filled and smoothed off painted black think I am going to try and get a black surround instead of the grey one so it doesn't stand out as much

So the trip went well there and back no issues, best drive home ever
Cant recommend them enough they have made the car much better to drive
Fitted my L8 ECU new and a new map for it
PF09
Anti lag & Launch control
And a good check over and setup the car has never run so well im well chuffed
Had a sticking iscv so ordered a new one just need to fit that soon as it gets here
Same Bhp but a bit more torque and comes on boost quicker aswell

Stunning car with you, you need to get a vid up of the anti lag working.
