I\'ll hazard a guess that it\'ll do 2/3rd\'s of sweet f.a.

[Kiwi_Fozze]

my thoughts exactly. mind you, i was there anyways, thought "hell, nothing ventured nothing gained", and i had a whole craptonne of cable ties lying around anyways

[Roo]

Bet it took you farken ages!

Props for doing it and not just sitting back hating on the idea

[Kiwi_Fozze]

about 20 mins a side lol, had the struts out regreasing them so in the long run it really made bugger all difference. although, my arms are burnt to a crisp now LOLOL

used the turtle wax headlight restoration treatment to make it last longer but i used autosol to buff out the headlight ;D

[Timmah]

Mate. That\'s amazing how good they turned out.

went really well and a detailer friend of mine of mine suggested giving it a coat of wax after the washing from the restoration process.. ;D its really easy to do and only takes a few mins ;D

[clintondane]

Mine were really bad and I wish I had taken before and after pictures. I ended up using Dulux cut and polish. We use it to buff out scratches from aluminium joinery at work. Works incredibly well!!!!!!!!!

I like how much of a stir i\'ve caused with one photo of a fire extinguisher lol I can never get endless safety warnings when I post pics of the outside of the car

Not stiring cos I think its great you\'ve added an extinguisher , I think everyone should.

But if your using it for motorsport , even if you add the required 2 straps it wont pass the grade mounted where it is.

That metal bracket doesn\'t have sufficient strength regardless of what fixings you\'ve used.

Just tyring to help.

thropys on the money there

[Kiwi_Fozze]

update on the cable ties. not worth it. makes f**k all difference. very slight increase in pedal feel, but not much else....

Appreciate the advice, as I said it\'s nothing permanent so if i\'m not allowed it there it won\'t be an issue to change it

I was wondering today what a wof inspector would make of all those zip ties? I\'d be thinking that there\'s something hiding away under there.....
