mplavery Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 b;3039430']Awesome work dude, love the "new oem look" to the pipes. Maybe consider spraying the fan black? would go far better with the scheme your going for I think than the stock "milk" colour (as an idea) mmmm very interesting, i will have a think about that lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonc Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 looking good, A quick Q if you dont mind. How did you manage to spray in the engine bay black around the ABS unit at the back of the bay on the passsenger side. I'm sure from you photos you did'nt remove it (or did you:confused:).

mplavery Posted March 6, 2011 Author Share Posted March 6, 2011 (edited) Well its all done ... for now anyways, im sure there will be little things i want to sort out but apart from that im very happy with it.. All starts and runs fine now though my Slip Control is flashing on and off so im going to have to look at the sensors on the inlet side to see why that is happening I know some of you dont like the chrome fan cover but i offerd it up and really like it so thats staying on lol anyways so it went from this to this Edited March 6, 2011 by mplavery (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
