had my new nilfisk pressure washer turn up today and it was nice for a change in sunny wales so i gave her a well needed wash!

and once finished i fitted a few marmite mods!

i got the hartge side moulding badges and as the wheels will be going back on shortly i thought i'd give them a whirl!



and on the car (will get some better pics when the wheels are fitted!)



and the more marmite mod i've had this a while and thought i'd see if i like it



and on the car (i can imagine 99% will **** it but i'll give it a couple of weeks and see what i think!)





and a pic when i'd finished cleaning it!



i've got my flame suit on stand by! so let me know what you think! :lol:

[Wout CSL]

What an amazing build man! Love it, sub'd!

[jimmybacon]

I like it man, reckon it would maybe look better if you painted the chrome rings black tho.

[m44lee]

another update won some genuine acs sideskirts on ebay and they turned up today! so they'll be taken down to my local body work shop this week! so these should be fitted for dc12!
anyway a couple of pics







they dont fit like the normal m3 skirts so would appreciate advice on whats best from others that have them :wink:

also just missed out on the acs 3 piece spoiler that i was after last night too! :cry: so i'm back on the hunt again! :roll:

[hakhawk]

nice, should match with the front lip nicely.

my sideskirts wereglued on poorly when i got the car. at the time i didnt know they were supposed to use clips, so i cleaned them up, ran a bead of sikaflex down the length of the car, lined it up and used painters tape to hold it in place while it dried, then added screws on each end and underneath. came up a treat.

cheers mate!

[PG1_Euro36]

love the wheels more than others, brilliant!

[m44lee]

got the skirts back today! so set about fitting them!

i was surprised how much crap got under the old ones so had to give under them a good clean 1st

and heres the skirts





and then some fitted pics!







just need to get the rims back on now!
had the tyre off and think i can see where the air was leaking from


so will be stripping it down this weekend

[m44lee]

is was getting a little dark when i took yesterdays pics so heres a couple from today in the sun!

[m44lee]

well its holding air now after stripping it down and resealing it ! so got them back on today! will get some better pics when its clean and lowered back down!
but heres some for now! i still think the hartges look ok with the acs stuff imo

seen a few rims without centre caps and think they look better without so thought i'd try it!





although the hartges arent one of them imo! so on they went





and a pic of the poke!

[softg]

that's a nice car mister, loving the hartge's

[tanktank208]

thanks for the comments guys!

Got round to fitting the new carbon centre console so heres a couple of pics!

i love the euro clocks!

[m44lee]

a few pics i've rounded up of mine from dc12 so far













will add more if i find any! :wink:

[m44lee]

well i went to my local rolling road yesterday to get a before dyno but the guy that runs the rolling road was on holiday! so i'll just have to make do with the butt dyno after the map
booked in for my mapping 2morro so will update with a few pics and then will get myself a dyno run at some point and see what figures its making

and heres the bits i'm using as an upgrade



thats a uk 325 maf
volvo turbo 30lb injectors to replace the standard 19lb injectors
and injector adaptors from metric mechanics

and i'll also be getting rid of the rising rate fuel pressure regulator!
(although that did add abit more bling to my engine bay! ops: )
