im bebating whether to find a good mk3 tailgate so i can have my swage lines back
how sad am i getting

[jayrs]

seeing as it could well find its way to the isle of wight, i just as well look for a boot lid over here aint i

[~nomad~]

i think you should defo change the tailgate if the cars getting painting. it always looks wrong to me that it hasnt got the swage lines

[knuckles]

seeing as it could well find its way to the isle of wight, i just as well look for a boot lid over here aint i

[jayrs]

isle fo wight prices, corse it will be

[knuckles]

Not much of a update but more of a warning






my temperature guage was playing up on saturday . Pulled over to allow traffic to pass then went up a kerb pretty hard
After looking at the wheel a small bruise appeared on the tyre wall. The inside had split and was told by a tyre fitter it could blowout at anytime with any more knocks.

Tyre is less that 6 months old
£70 later it was replaced for another pirelli p6000





On a positive side i have obtained a brand new Ford panel from ebay




That should do the trick on the rear quarter

[jayrs]

and that panel was a good price too mate.
bugger about the tyre though mate, at least the alloy is ok though

[fiend]

Shame about the tyre, atleast there was no damage to that alloy though!

[Dave G fsi]

At least you found the tyre before it blew out mate.

Well in finding the panel, should sort out the rust

[knuckles]

More Rs parts for everyone to dribble over







slighly worn Rs gearknob





How Cool is that ! Mint tape holder accessory fits so snug like it grew there





Finally ! A straight set of green mouldings. I took great care removing this with pallet wrap strapping. and i got both bumper inserts to go with them too.
Also ANOTHER set of headlight protectors

[jayrs]

very nice mate, and a bargin too

[Dave G fsi]

Been after a gearknob and headlight protectors for months! Sooooooooooo jealous!! Fancy selling them me?

i will be after a 3 figure sum for the headlight protectors if your interested

[~nomad~]

3 figures! why?

[knuckles]

3 figures! why?

they are becoming very smelly rocking horse poo ....

so wont part with them for £40
maybe £140

[curly]

so how much the gear nob worth then, missus got one in hers, ive got a blue one in mine,

[jayrs]

3 figures! why?

they are becoming very smelly rocking horse poo ....

so wont part with them for £40

I think Jays offer is fair lol. Good luck to you if you get them sold mind. I have always thought people were mad paying more for protectors than the brand new lights would cost lol

[knuckles]

the headlight protectors dont really protect they are more of a fashion accessory these days on old cars.

I agree new headlights would be cheaper

unfortunatly i decline your more than generous offer jay.

i bet nowone has a brand new gearknob as a spare still? i still cant find my old gearknob, its lost!

[Excursion]

Rob, totally owned there!!! Excursion clearly has a bigger penis (and gearnob collection) than you

[jayrs]

i could throw in a kick in the b0llocks and a back hander as well but thats about the best i can do mate

[fiend]

Amazing.

[~nomad~]

I have a couple too. Are they worth money?

[rob pace]

last brand new FRST gearknob i had, put it on ebay and it went for £130, that was about 2 years ago though

[~nomad~]

I might sell mine off then.

"if I was a rich man, lalalalalalalalala la la lala la la la"

[knuckles]

the only problem with having a brand new gear knob is you need a brand new steering wheel to match.

Then to add to that ... you would be scared to use them cos of the rarity. i wore out a escort gti gearknob in 18 months use on my daily use of the Rs.

[Wittmann]

:o Those pads were pretty bad!

I cant decide whether to get drilled discs or grooved discs, or either. What kind of difference do you feel and which is better out of the two?

I do 5-10 track days in a summer and i use grooved ones and been happy whit them. Drilled discs might cool down bit faster, but they need to be good brand/material. Cheap ones will start to crack even in normal driving and that is not a place to save. Also the grooved ones will "eat" bit faster the brake pads.
