I`m the 1st one to see this mod lol and yes it does look nice with a nice finish and matches the rest of the piping.It was a good idea you cleanerholic :B_thumb: I bet she`s having the best treatment of her life.
The header tank looks unpainted, but the topic is painted header, what's going on?
[QUOTE=stribo;662691]The header tank looks unpainted, but the topic is painted header, what's going on?[/QUOTE] did it so you had summit to talk about on this thread ;)
[QUOTE=merc85;662697]did it so you had summit to talk about on this thread ;)[/QUOTE] Or was it so I could tell you it's a bloody manifold, not a header. :P
[QUOTE=merc85;662697]did it so you had summit to talk about on this thread ;)[/QUOTE] its working :)
Hopefully it's still nice and shiny next Saturday for 'Ace Cafe'
[QUOTE=V70 Graham;662719]Hopefully it's still nice and shiny next Saturday for 'Ace Cafe'[/QUOTE] if i havent broken it by then fingers crossed lol

[QUOTE=T5frankie;662724]when are you breaking it? :uglyhamme[/QUOTE] dunno lol watch this space pmsl :)
[QUOTE=merc85;662725]dunno lol watch this space pmsl :)[/QUOTE] i would have thought you would have stuck some 850r interior in though, shem is breaking one
[QUOTE=T5frankie;662726]i would have thought you would have stuck some 850r interior in though, shem is breaking one[/QUOTE] Yeah but it would then look like im trying to copy a R which it aint in not and it never will be, Bin looking for some std black leather if a set comes up cheap enough i may, the cloth holds ya better than leather tbh and i find it more comfortable admitible it doesn't look as nice.

[QUOTE=T5frankie;662730]not about copying, you have already done that on the outside, the seats just look nicer[/QUOTE] no all ive done is fitted a front R bumper because i like the look of it. Seat wise yes they do look nicer.
Have you thought about a V70R seats ?
[QUOTE=oblark;662735]Have you thought about a V70R seats ?[/QUOTE] Yes buddy, and i do really like them, the problem is Blacky hasnt got the loom/cant find the loom to plug the electric seats into. :(
[QUOTE=merc85;662736]Yes buddy, and i do really like them, the problem is Blacky hasnt got the loom/cant find the loom to plug the electric seats into. :([/QUOTE] All you need for the electric seats is a switched live :) And the manifold looks good :)
[QUOTE=oblark;662740]All you need for the electric seats is a switched live :)[/QUOTE] lol seriously bud im useless with electric's id probably end up with a fire... Crispy t5 anyone?? lol
[QUOTE=merc85;662742]lol seriously bud im useless with electric's id probably end up with a fire... Crispy t5 anyone?? lol[/QUOTE] im the same, nuts and bolts ok, wiring on a car..useless lol
It would be easy to wire them in Gav. I was going to suggest v70r or even just the v70 t5 half leather/alcantara as it's plain & you won't be a "wanna be" if you got it. Would match your clocks too. I'm tempted to sack my seats off & put in my leather recaros & go full black leather but I fear upsetting the purists. ;)
im with them to. wiring is a nightmare

[QUOTE=merc85;662755]Let me know if you dont want your interior anymore lol, The thing is i do have 2 front v70r seats OMG! lol[/QUOTE] Mines cream mate & the foamman has dibbs on my rears. I give up looking for a black v70r interior not to far away so thinking of using what I have & sourcing black dash, door cards, pillar trim & a rear seat. I'll spray my carpets. Lol
Inlet matched to the hoses, I did the same ;) Looks good anyway and wiring isn't an issue you just need to man up more ;)
[QUOTE=AndysR;662870]Inlet matched to the hoses, I did the same ;) Looks good anyway and wiring isn't an issue you just need to man up more ;)[/QUOTE] i did that months ago lol
[QUOTE=T5frankie;662876]i did that months ago lol[/QUOTE] So did I ;)
[QUOTE=AndysR;662881]So did I ;)[/QUOTE] how many people have done white with white though?
[QUOTE=T5frankie;662882]how many people have done white with white though?[/QUOTE] Not sure, none of us heterosexuals anyway... Just kidding, yours looks good but the upkeep must be a nightmare and from experience most of the silicone hoses will discolour over time so you'll probably end up with cream hoses in a year or so's time, but then you will have sold or broken it by then so no dramas really...lol
lol yeah found that with my WHITE block lol its gone dull already lol
