Hi Rourkie,

I dont think we can post pics at the moment due to other circumstances

OK boss cheers. What do i use to shrink the pics coz the system keeps telling me that they are too big? Also i am not getting the e-mail notification of a topic response!!
Rourkie.

Again that is down to the present situation.

To shrink your pictures use the resize option in your photo software (you should have installed that with your digital camera)

I think I left instructions for you regarding this in another topic.

Are those silver parts painted, looks nice, is that speedometer getting any sight problems on that light colour?

[hattus]

[ROURKIE]

P.S No probs at all with the speedo surround. Its all gravey baby!!!

Rourkie,

Did you use a special type of paint? I guess ordinary paint will easily chip-off.

Cheers, :wink:

[ROURKIE]

Got it done @ a spray shop. The fella who done it said he had to use a plasticiser first or suffin like that, then about 4-5 coats of colour, and 2 coats of glossy lacqure. I picked the colour out of a swatch booklet, so i think it is a ordinary car paint.
If anyone is gettin it done make sure they are as smooth as a babys arse before you start puttin paint on. My centre console was scratched badly and had to re-done because the finish was very poor.
I reckon you could do this @ home if you could find this plasticiser stuff off the shelf.
Just fitted smoked repeaters............Pimped!!!! Pics to follow soon.
ROURKIE.

[edu_en]

Thanks for the input. Will have to check where I can get that plasticiser stuff.

Cheers, :wink:

[hattus]

Pimped?......my god your huggy bear arent you!!!!

[ROURKIE]

On the button!!!!!
Lets not get tetchy coz i robbed MY idea! Like i said, i have set the trend you can now follow!!! BE-ATCH!!!!!
ROURKIE.
Boys just recieved a new ariel (Inc base-not screw in), so gonna try and fit it tomorrow, any tips would be megga handy. I know iv gotta take out the head liner at the front but not sure about the fixings ect... anyone done it, or know where it is on the honda esm coz i cant find it.

[ROURKIE]

This ariel is a bitch to fit, but coming soon!!!! looks prety smooth without does'nt it. Not sure if there is a booster available so you dont need an external ariel? Anyone? also pics of repeaters to come.

[Dick_Dastardly]

Is there an advantage to this?????

Just curious.

[ROURKIE]

Yeah.
1) The standard one kept getting ragged about in the car wash
2) It has all the fitments and wireing now installed for GPS (if i could afford it)
3) Aesthetical pleasentness
4) No not really!!!!
Guess your not a fan!!!
ROURKIE.

[Dick_Dastardly]

I was just curious really...Why the antenna?

Of all the cars I've used the HR-V has one of the best radio receptions.

And I usually unscrew it before using the car wash.!

It looks OK but do you think anybody will notice? (or is it because I'm too short to see mine)

BTW; The interior looks ace! Looks like a better job than Hondas upgrade.

[ROURKIE]

How about some Carbon Fibre headlamp protectors?
Arived today, gonna fit them tomorrow, so pics to follow!!!!
ROURKIE

[ROURKIE]

Guess what! The fittings wer'nt sent with the headlamp covers.
MUPPETS!!!
Might be here 2morrow or Sat :cry:
ROURKIE.

[ROURKIE]

Carbon!!!!! Fitted!!!! Mmmmmmm!!!!
I like alot!!!
Went through the car wash with them and no probs at all a little condensation but went within 10 mins.
Oppinions would be nice.
Thanks
ROURKIE.

The head lampmd looks cool rookie as well as the antenna, it resembles bmw's antenna. 8)

[ROURKIE]

Cheers. The fin isn't BMW but i am on the look out for a beamer one coz i think it will look smoother.
