Yeah lol that picture is a bit weird. Was looking at their FB page where they've added them to BMWs, Porches, Mercs, Audis, etc.

Congrats . I expect pictures ASAP!





May I make a moment to mark the passing of my Corsa, crusty. Well, specifically Crusty's reverse gear. For a free car, it has served me well and I have to say I've now learnt that Corsas actually are decent small cars.

 

[MrKambo]

dont get a powerflow, they offer life time warranty and stuff, but the material they use is inferior.

If you want an exhaust see if a specialist makes a tailored system for your specific car, its so much easier and hassle free trust me!

Its getting a MrKambo detailing session tomorrow providing its not hammering down with rain like it is today!

Then ill try and get some nice high res photos up

Hmm interesting.

Second question. I want to change the colour of my car and was thinking about getting it wrapped, does anyone have any reasons not to do this?

depends on what car and where, if its a "difficult" to wrap car and a crappy shop, dont do it

It's a BMW 3 series (E90). Looking at Sheffield car wrapping. They have examples of BMW 3 series they've done in the past that look good in the pictures, but I've never seen a wrapped car is person (that I know of).

ok I got nothing against your plan then they should be handling your car perfect, and I guess if you never noticed that a car was wrapped its done right aye?
Most cabs are wrapped btw (atleast in germany)

 

[MrKambo]

Getting a car wrapped isn't an issue from a decent place, ask whether they do door shuts and boot shuts, if not I'd enquire elsewhere

Will do, cheers mate.

Is this where it's wrapped around the door and under the interior panels?

yeah exactly that, buy the prices you can judge workmanship and skill

An average sized family hatchback (vauxhall astra/vectra) should cost around the £650-£800 mark, so anything bigger smaller should be priced accordingly anything sub £500 means shit job and no door shuts!

7/10:

So had a play with the 32 today, one thing i know for sure, cant boot it when its wet back end is all over the place, had the entire interior out today check for moisture rust, all seems ok for a 25 year old car!

Car defo needs to go to my bodyshop and have a blow over, panels need realigning, basically all the little annoying stuff so should have fun over winter restoring it and then bringing it out when the weather clears up

Now...to find a new daily driver, coz the KA is dead
