      nice!

      lowered the back of my car down (since nationals) with the help of Josh! Cheers!
      found i have some fairly nasty camber wear on the back of the LMs and a nail in each tyre. have never noticed the camber wear on my car before, and considering i have only been running the LMs again a short period of time i would say its from the added weight of when we had the car loaded up at Nationals.

          Yeah me too same place, Its the second time this hose has failed on me, I've already replaced the long straight section so removal is now my next option.

          How were you thinking of fixing it?

              • Well I bought the Bora a nice shiny torque wrench and it looks like I will be buying a nice shiny new battery tomorrow as the current one is as dead as
                Well I'm hoping its only an old battery as there have been no warning lights about alternator etc.

                • After getting schooled last time I said I used the car wash brush

                  I bought down my wool glove, wash n wax and bucket, and actively ignored the 'NO BUCKET WASHING' sign. None of the staff were happy about it but didn't stop me haha so no swirls for me thanks!

                  Took some pics after too

                              • Thanks for the replies. Yeah that's the idea, do you guys know whats behind the euro plate holder once you take it off?
                                A bunch of holes I bet, so its worth a respray?

                                I've been thinking of where to put the plate once its gone, JMD style (smaller plate in the lower right grille) or just in the center. The thing is if I get it resprayed, I'm not keen on putting more holes in it

                                Cheers

                                Never mind I found out there will be holes. Still keen on thoughts of location though!
