        I went from 15's to 16's to 15's to 16's (first good set though) and now to 17's.

        My next couple of sets are 16's though

                If you have a heat gun you can make the spoiler look like it's new colourwise. Can't fix the dents though I suppose

                    And Ben what does the heat gun do? Just bring it back to life a abit? I've bought a project head so hopefully in the next few months I'll be getting setup with a compressor and die grinder and start a slow port job on the head and might get some shrick cams to match my intake manifold! Woo

                      It does this in like 1 minute: (before on the left and after on the right obviously)


                      I had read about using a heat gun on exterior plastics to bring them back to life and never tried it out, had the heat gun out to roll the gaurds though the other day so thought I'd give it a try and wow, its amazing. So much better than all those products you can put on or even repainting. You just heat the plastic a little and it turns back to the colour it was when it was new. Will see how long it lasts but I think it should last as well as anything else.

                        Holy crap, that's a great result. Same results on the side trims to?

                          Wow I'm impressed I'll try it out and see how it looks! Pity about the little dings in it but even if it looked like that then it would be a big improvement. Will post some pics up next week when I try it out, away for the weekend so no updates for a few days

                          Also planning on doing my heater core sometime in the next month cause F me it's cold at 630 on the way to work every morning

                            Ive only done a little part of my side trims to test it and it worked perfectly there too. Going to wait until after a do a full detail next week before i finish all the trims, but they certainly do come up really nice. Make sure to clean the trim pieces well first

                                Okay so im thinking its about time i change some bushings and fix some things up on my VR, is there a full bushing set i can get ? also has anyone here tried running the polo strut tops for more lows and less stress on the coilovers? if so where would be a good place to get some?
