New wheels on the car also just renewed insurance, everything declared, fully comp in my name £600

Picking up some rub strips to be colour coded this weekend and a new airbox... then i'll get some new arches and respray them. Should be sorted for Trax.

Baskey only a x12xe, no need for speed atm it simply runs me to and from uni. I'll get something next year when i'm 21 and prices are reasonable, can't justify it atm.

Tom, wheels went on in the end after my stupidity

Matthew, rubstrips are needed, when I took the old rubstrips off there was damage to the lacquer and it looks naff up close and in the sun, in shadows and from a far its fine but up close it's not great so rubstrips sprayed is a solution atm....

I've almost changed so many times, i just renewed insurance on this and was going to buy Monsters but they ended up being pains in the arse about changing making the price silly high so unfortunately I couldn't and tbh... I know her, she's done me well so far so may as well keep her! Reliable old girl

From the point of view of it now having softstars? Before i had them the irmscher smoothed and rest of it had been done for nearly 2 years now, not saying I beat the craze as it was done before me obviously but its not just happened last night.

Softstars went on because it needed a change and these came up, thought they'd go down well with irmy front and sides... gamble appears to have paid off.

Mate I was absolutely gutted I couldn't attend but you hitting up Trax? Think i'll be doing an MK smash up in Oceana with the Hotel lot, probably head back to the hotel then to mine in the wee hours of the morning

(room at my house )

Sam, need some new arches because the paint reacted bad on the back ones, theres some small 5p mark which i'm not happy with.... probably may just take them off, re prime and respray them all together instead of buying new

No a friends dad did them but I think due to the amount of back to black/bumper care on them he had a right problem so it ended up in 2 small places going a bit funny... nothing bad tbh and you have to look close to see it but when you know its there it's one of those things that gets on your nerves and have to sort out.

Like the wheels.

Have you smashed one of your lights or is there a fault with them?
