http://www.designwisestudio.com/z32/tail_lights/ but let me tell you its a fooker to do, really hard to get the lights to seperate if you've got no patience like me, i've busted 3 lights trying to do it, i ended up buying the real thing in the end cos i just couldnt do it

just been to see The Dark Knight
and the verdict is................... I feel as though there should have been a little more action, the story line is a little political but by far the best performance i have seen for a long time is the joker, the best character performance i have seen in a movie for a long long time, just wished he had been in it a little more, and if im honest i dont think they got it all finished befiore he died. would have been better if there was 1 final showdown between him and the batman, a very good film overall and the soundtrack makes it really dramatic again defo worth a watch but i think i built it up too much in my head cos i love batman begins so much

Retrimming a SWB
i know alot have you have had aftermarket retrims done on your zeds over the years, what price roughly am i looking at to have a SWB done in cream leather with something like red piping. ive been quoted 1600 which i thought was a bit steep but the guy is suppost to be one of the best trimmers in sheffield. not 100% gonna have it done yet because believe it or not i actually like the tweed in a difficult to believe wierd way, but on the other hand i think its an area that lets the car down visually and i think a cream interior would really take peoples breath away if done correctly. Cheers

should i claim?
contact an industrial injuries solicitor out of your of the yellow pages, and get a no win no fee agreement, that way if there is no chance of winning the solicitors wont take the case and then you know where you stand, if they do take the case then they must think there is a good chance of winning. although just be aware scarring and personal injury doesnt usually get that much money in court, maybe only a couple of grand.

Am I The Youngest Zed Owner?
im a dance floor kind of guy, anyway yes back on topic, mate, thay arnt as hard to drive as eveybody makes out, just watch the back end in the wet, just dont accelerate off roundabouts and in corners, if your going to race only do it in straight lines and watch the brakes, they are shit and take ages to slow you down, they key is dont push the car too hard until you get used to it. but for 5k make sure you enjoy it

Am I The Youngest Zed Owner?
petrol takes the pi55 in a zed, especially if you thrash it, that what will do your head in more than anything, especially if its your only car, and 5k WTF, im 25 and mine is only bout £180 a year but thats only 3rd party, get that traders policy sorted mate, just think of the mods you could do with the money if you got it down by even half!!

Personnal Advice
go for it mate, i was in the same position when i was 18 years old, had the chance to move from sheffield where i lived with my family to liverpool (bout 100 miles away) where i knew nobody. anyway i did it, rented a room in a house wi a load of scousers and had the time of my life, came home to see the family every couple of months too to sort the home sickness. rent in a shared house, it really helps when you have people around with you, while i was down there i also got my own place in a flat in the city centre on my own, very boring is all i can say, a place of you own sounds a good idea but in reality is very boring and if its a new town where you dont know many people very well, is also very lonely, a shared house is cheaper and also you instantly have some mate to go out with, show u the ropes and introduce you to people when your out with them, good luck pal
