Lil's Aerotop diary - TopSecret Bumper Fitted

Recommended Posts

Just gone through this, great work :thumbs: Nice subtle mods that really suit the car, well done. Have you driven the car with and without the strut braces, if so is there a difference in the ride with the roof off? I find the 'flex' on mine with the roof off a bit annoying and would like to tighten it up. Liking the red badge and led's.

Thank you all guys,

 

@ Hammer I never drove it without the strut braces with the roof of there is a difference in her flexibility but i think it's minimal.

 

in other news today morning I found that dent on the spoiler :

Can that be a hit by someone? or anything else?

I went the "dark" path and bought a TopSecret Bumper from Knight Racer.

today I received that message:

Sorry for the delays.

We have had to make a brand new one for you as the one in stck has a slight crack on one corner. We hope to have this shipped by end of week to you

 

That's good so far I think :) :p

It arrived today

I hope that with a bit of trimming it will come along nicely

It can't be hit up there without leaving any marks.

 

Is there a chance that you tightened up the hatch screws a bit too much and it's pulled the fibreglass inward? i know it's fairly weak around that part, same for mine.

As I wrote on my Wanted Thread

My downpipe and the Cat Pipe are so rusty that we didn't want totake them apart for replacing the manifold to cat gaskets.

So I am looking for some new pipes to replace the rusty ones,

Any thoughts about the Garage Whifbitz Supra Decat Pipes ?

Anyone ever used them?

The car is in bodyshop, changing the Front Bumper, fixing some rust points and remove the rear whiper.

During that time I am going to heat wrap the flex joint on the first decat (hopefully that will reduce the raspy noise)

 

I also fitted a Relay Loom to the HID kit because one Light was flickering a bit.

 

And I fitted a UK-Spec Speedo to have both MPH and KM (I don't know if it's reading properly yet :p )

nice one mate, im going to visit them on sat...

My wiper delete is showing as the filler has dropped, I dont think they welded a plate (like i told them to do) so make sure they have done it on yours otherwise it will do the same as what mine has done.

what is this relay ring? My HID are flickering too on 1 side.
