DodgyRog Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Looks like a good job Brendan;) You certainly are going for it since you got your Supe:) Think of all that quarry dust in the summer, going through your front vent all over those shiney bits:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I take it you are not running a stock manifold then Aren't the NA ones a different shape to fit around the inlet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supradibbs Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Yes they are they dip at the back to allow room for the manifold you canfit TT one if you are running a aftermarket manifold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flukey-lukey Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I'd like my cam covers polishing while they're off the car. Does anyone on the forum still do it and how much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTRickeh Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I just noticed whifbitz do them on an exchange basis for £57.50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flukey-lukey Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 hmm not bad, I'm due to order some parts from whifbitz soon so I might enquire about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraShaun Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Ive just checked on their site and they are £103 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTRickeh Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 So they are, I must've been looking at the throttle body and inlet mani. Apologies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraShaun Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I think that's quite a good price for inlet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonT Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I'd like my cam covers polishing while they're off the car. Does anyone on the forum still do it and how much? I think SUPRALOOPY does polishing might be worth asking him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Make sure you give them a good clean inside before fitting and wax them while they are easy to get at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTRickeh Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I'm definitely going to get a load of polishing under my bonnet done soon. I would've thought the cam covers would be about the same price as the inlet mani, I wonder why they're so much more. They are the same on the Envy website, granted they're both £120 though.

JamieP Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Make sure you give them a good clean inside before fitting and wax them while they are easy to get at. What wax do you recomend, need some for my wheels:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 What wax do you recomend, need some for my wheels:) I used to use klasse sealant glaze followed by p21s, a bit extreme for most people (i already had these for my paintwork anyway) but i ran a set of polished stock 17's as a daily driver without it tarnishing (topped up the protection every couple of weeks).

I expect the intake manifold will be more expensive than the cam covers unless they only polish the top ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think it might be priced wrong on the whifbitz website then? I'd ask but i'm afraid he'll put his prices up lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
