Ive preferred mikalor in the past but they are so bulky i damaged my bonnet one with them. Not sure whats the best to be honest but im on the hunt for ones that i can tuck the bolt part underneath to hide them.

JaiKai - Full rebuild & Respray
yeh, there is 16 clamps in total that they sent and they were all the same size. Not really liking the quality of the clamps either so going to order up some new one. However as much as I like mikalor they are very bulky, i'm looking for something that I can hide the bolts so that all you see is the bands.

Update time ! Starting off with this bloody right side turbo vac pipe, I've been struggling to get this sorted for 4 weeks now. The issue I had was my big muckle hands and no matter what I did I couldn't get into the actuator to fit the vac pipe but patience was a virtue as my lovely and heavily pregnant wife spent nearly 45 minutes getting it fixed. Well done Bernadette :) Used her phone for a few shots show below to see the progress of how far we needed to push the pipe on : Now that's done I started to put back the main pipes running to the intercoolers, nice new z1 pipes. Unfortunately I've just discovered that the hard pipe kit also ordered from z1 came with the wrong clips so I'm 6 missing. Finally fitted the boost controller pipe work.

Subscribed member but can post in parts section?!
Ah, Never realised you were using tapatalk. The sales section uses a custom plugin to give a category dropdown which isn't compatible with tapatalk. Lee

Foreign Traders on Social Media
There have been a lot of really good deals going about on Facebook recently so much that you start to question the legitimacy of them all. We all know certain parts for the zed are now unavailable so when a deal comes up for a set of 99 spec headlights which state they are boxed as new and all for under £300 you have to stop and think for a minute. Unfortunately for some people they never saw the signs and fell for this sham and have paid and lost there hard earned cash. So this is just a simple warning to think and seek advice either from us or other users before gambling your cash on something like this. Thanks JaiKai

Oh yes, When I started the refurb my initial order was nearly 3k and that renewed all rubbers, lights and a few other bits. I've since spent another £1000 nearly and more to come next year as I want to replace all the under engine and wheel shrouds. I soon need to do a calculation for insurance to show them what I've spent which scares me.
