He said can you drop him an e mail and he will reply via that

 

Thanks mate

 

Will do mate

 

Hoping to get the driver side skirt on today which would complete the body kit fitting, And also going to try and do some work on the rear beam.. il take some pics later today

 

Well ermmmm heres a change decided to change the colour of my brand new Mo's Took my old mans advice and painted them goldish.. its look alot more gold in real life as the picture wont capture the flakes

What you think.. I know its not to every bodys taste but wanted it to stand out abit more as everyone has anthracite and satin black etc

 

Imo the colour sets of the carbon splitter a treat

 

Would need to see them in the light they look beige in the pics !

 

I know mate.. I tried geting the flake in the pic but no joy.

 

are you neven going to drive it?looks good

 

the real question is am i ever going to finish it

Yh it will get driven almost every weekend and the occasional weekday

 

Not sure tbh at least it's different, what about a nice deep bronze perl finish?

 

i dont like the wheels mate im sorry the rest of the car is so so nice but the wheels

 

rest of the car is gorgeous.....the wheels could make me stop following this thread though!

Be good to see it finished.


Mart.

 

good to see you try something different mate , i know what you mean by everyone having the same mods. makes a lot of the modded cars look the same, which i think defeats the purpose of modding a car

perhaps the gold comes out more in sunlight?

 

Some colours do not come out well in pics. But beige?? BBS does a gold paint that would have been the best!

Go to parts section

 

Hi mate..

In person the colour looks great against the black.. The camera does not pick the colour out properly that's why it looks crappy yellow

yh that's a true point Vic everyone does the same mods so does defeat the purpose so now I have my own touch on it

 

Lincoln I know the colour mate, got them on our split rims there not beige

 

Are you taking the photo with the flash on?

 

Yh i am mate

 

Try taken a pic with it off or with a light bit of paper I.e grease proof over the flash, looks like the flash is bleaching out the colour in the pics

 

I will do mate if the sun comes out il take a wheel outside and take a pic

 

It should be sunny tomorrow so il try get some better pics

 

heres a pic with no flash

 

take a wheel of and put it in the sun and take a photo off it so we can see them better

 

Yh i will mate but just waiting for the sun to come out

iv just realised iv got a faulty comp mo

 

i think they look good mate. as you say you've put your touch to them.

you've got a faulty comp??

 

Thanks mate its diffrent

yh it appears so i was having issues clearing my front caliper so i had to use a 3mm spacer and then the caliper was still catching on a section of the wheel and today i put another wheel on with no spacer as i forgot and hey prest it cleared the caliper.. I then putthe driver side on and again cleared but then i put the faulty one on and it was catching bad without the spacer and even so with the 3mm.. So im puting it down to a faulty wheel

 

thats not good mate, what you got to do then? get on to compomotive?

 

Yh looks that way mate il give mike rainbird a call 1st.. Its only my spare one but still i need to be able to fit it

hows your car coming along mate?

 

Wheel colour is different and looks better in the pic with no flash,the other ones look hearing aid beige lol.

 

yes but the sun will come out were you are . but in Birmingham its fucking pissing it down

 

ah thats not too bad then, at least your not stuck with three wheels.

mine is in bits again, got my next race at brands hatch in a month, which is my local circuit so doing a few mods to make sure all is ok for it, modding my rear beam and having a fuel swirl pot made, making the swirl pot so it goes in place of the pipe that goes between tank and pump and dropping the pump down slightly, keeping it nice and simple

 

Lmao nice description mate

 

Thatals no good im there in august so hopefully will ne better.. Is there any meets on in august around the midlands mate?

 

Sounds like it keeps getting better and better mate how you finding the racing? You feel under pressure or isit juat good fun? Yh iv actully gpt 2 spares

 

cheers mate

no dont feel any pressure, i just enjoy it, i've been racing karts from the age of 9 then couldn't afford to do anything for quite a while so i'm living my dream as such

skinting myself during the process

 

Safe to say you know how to throw it around track then mate.. Ahhh if your life doesnt feel threated wheres the fun

true mate, nothing like scraping through each month

 

No plans for more power mate?
