pretty sure advan did a pretty sexy set of these....There was also a Zed at zedworld a year or 2 back with these on and it looked a lot better than some of the stuff out there, so they are about.

Anyone been to Rome?
I stayed in this hotel - http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Hotel_Review-g187791-d316644-Reviews-Raffaello_Hotel-Rome_Lazio.html For a 3 star it's good with decent A/C, and decent breakfast too, and it's really close to the large amount of attractions. Edit: oh and when getting taxis too and from airport try and get the ones with the prices on the side of the taxi as they are bound by law to give that price, and take more underwear than you need cause their driving is bat shit crazy!

Anyone been to Rome?
I went last year end of october. i walked everywhere, as the first warning i got was pickpockets, then you look at the buses and they were rammed! I went for 3 days and saw everything, it was really quite lax other than walking to the Vatican as thats out of Rome itself, but again that was not tiring. You should get a concierge (if thats how its spelt) and they will highlight all the attractions. a given but if you go to the Vatican and your taking your girlfriend or a female make sure they wear skirts that cover their knees. Some really beautiful sights, hope you enjoy yourself :) edit- As phutumsch said, dodge anyone wearing the gladiators outfit as they do their best to fleece money out of you

Hey Dougal or anyone else on that, before I dive into the footwells, does anyone have an easy way to Remove the main harness? The one that runs along the wings and under the slam panel? Thanks guys Edit: it should probably read- from which side is it easiest to disconnect. And it's the engine harness not the main. Thanks.

My SWB Zed...
yeap there they all are The only ones i really think twice about burning out are the subframe bushes....as you have to cut some of the shell out, but not all of it. obviously ive already melted mine to a crisp so only way is forward haha.

My SWB Zed...
Now here is a few pics of how i received them... Front hub after a few coats of lacquer I think the finish is pretty good but the obvious is they coated inside the bush housing!!! idiots, i did ask them not too but hey ho.. Here with the energy suspension bushing fitted. Rear lower control arm Unfortunately thats all i really have pic wise of the powder coating at the moment as my other half insisted on me glossing the house :( But i did however pick my new front calipers up today! And a pic of them compared to the stock calipers.

My SWB Zed...
This Birds nest of wire is the alarm i removed it was a clifford 650... It never locked the car, set the alarm off whichever button you pressed, and also tested your patience when trying to remove the immobilizer...so i thought id rip it out and it was an atrocity under the dash! This was my favorite wiring joint for the alarm to the ignition barrel..
