Would have been even better if id remembered to fit the rubber O rings to the underside of the rocker covers round the spark plug holes. feel like a rite numb cunt, sorry glenn

 

its looking very smart there Craig
your car is coming along well mate

 

 

Cheers tony

 

It does look better fella.Shame its got to come apart again.I never thought about checking for them seals either.Or well not to worry.

 

If I'd swapped them over like I was supposed to, it wouldn't have to come apart again fella, can't believe I forgot, I knew beforehand they needed fitting, so trust me, I'm pissed off with myself, 10 second job aswel, that's the worst part, so forgetting a 10 second job, turns into a 2 hour job.

 

looks very nice

 

Cheers fella

 

Got the socket set off your lass, took the IMRC cover and IMRC off, checked the plug leads and plugs, back one's are dry as a bone, front ones have a little bit of oil on them, so its the front rocker cover i forgot to put the O rings on, so happy days, should only be a 45 minute job, its the back rocker cover thats the most awkward, so could be worse fella. id have done it myself, but the socket set you gave to ruthy didnt have deep sockets in it, so i couldnt get the bolts out on the cam pully side of the rocker cover.

 

Looks better with out that halfords special air filter on it too

 

Aye mate, that was on when i got it, soon binned it and replaced it with a pipercross viper

 

Bored this afternoon so sprayed the top of my header tank to match the UIM & rocker covers

Im thinking about painting the intake pipe on the induction kit aswel, stands out like a sore prick now

 

looking much better mate, like you say paint air intake pipe black and have black hoses done

 

That's the plan fella, and get a black battery cover.

 

nice one mate, like the idea, ive just gona all black with my engine bay too, gotta do inlet then ill wack some pics up

 

Aye I'm liking the all black look at the minute, blend everything in, especially with the car being black. I want to get a slight tint on the windows and smoked side repeaters. Had black wheels on till I bent them hitting a pothole, so I might get the current wheels refirbed in either black or anthracite, or buy a set of black/anthracite 18's as the 17's don't really do it any favours, look a bit small. I'd love a set of mo's, but I've got a feeling wor lass might not be to happy about the price, I've already spent more on the car in three month than I paid for it

 

18 comps would look the nuts mate
the mrs will never notice the difference

 

Aye but when she kirbs them, and trust me she will, she kirbed EVERY set of wheels I've ever bought, it may well result in me being single, because if she kirbed some comps, Id flip, properlly flip

 

fair enough, stick with what you have for now then fella !
i curbed mine a couple of times and been really pissed off with meself
