premier car dealers
don't touch them with a huge barge pole................... my mate bought a GTO from them and to be honest it was a bag of shite...... blew a head gasket after a month, they did not want to know about it, after a few weeks of argey bargey they agreed to refund him the money if he got it repaired, so he did and guess what, they didn't !! he is trying to get the money back or the car returned through the small claims court, the cars look great in the pics, but don't take my word for it, go and take a look for yourself, rubbish...... you've been warned off, its up to you if you take advice or not....... Birmingham is well known for dodgy imports especially in that areaa of brum where there is 5 or 6 so called " premiere car dealers "...... Andy...

did it myself thats why the door cards are shite !! spoke to the guy who supplied me with all the leather and he's emailed me some top tips and pics to do the door cards right, so i'll give it another go on Friday,....... cheers Andy. ( took me 2 days to retrim the seats and another 2 days to do the interior and it will take me another day to do the doors, not an easy job mate but worth it in the end )...

I've been busy over the ladt couple of months, here's what i've done..... Fitted new interior ( obviously )...... also put set of headrests in the rear and retrimmed those too, looks very nice and different, also put an MDF parcel shelf in and fitted 300w 6x9's, there is an infinity active sub on the boot space, will be fitting 2 subs and amp and DVD screen into the shelf soon. put in 2 x 8" sunvisor DVD screens in beige to match......EBAY...

Andy..- what you think , finished it yesterday
well done mate, looks great, I too have completed my interior now, it looks fantastic, i'll put some pics up tomorrow for you all to see..... got my seat covers from nipponautos and the leather for the rest of the interior. The only reason I got rid of the sheet that paulstevens had was because it didn't match my seats..... cost me £50.00 but I was happy to give it away to a member cause of the help i've had from you guys over the last few months. I'm really pleased with the interior now, but I have to re-do the door panels as i'm not happy with them, too many creases, and I'm having trouble on the corners, i'm going to give it another go on Friday, the rest of the interior is great.... pics tomorrow.... gald to be of help... cheers Andy.....- GT3 unlimited cash.....

what a load of w**k - GOD I HATE CHAV'S !!! just look at the quality workmanship in that gear stick gaitor, I particulary like the phillips head screws in the plate.... The rust on the front of the bonnet is very nice..... The rear brake DRUMS !!! look very cool painted...... The paint rubbing off the steering wheel is a nice touch !!.... Tax has run out - ?? and it looks like he is wearing his pyjamas ( look at the pic of the gear stick )---- LOL If i had the money, i'd buy it and BURN it.........

years ago i had a set of headlamp bulb covers which simply slip over your headlamp / main beam bulb to make it another colour. I saw them again on the Knightsbridge Z at Santa Pod and again on the Z in Redline magazine. i've emailed them to see where they got them from, but am waiting a response. Do any of you guys 'n' girls know where i could get a set. I want a blue set..... thanks Andy.- NZR Whats your day job????
driving at 125mph and not getting pulled by the fuzz.....yes... COOL indeed...... and no traffic jams...... 6000 rampaging horses and no police !!!! and it pays well too...... :dance:- NZR Whats your day job????
train driver.........- got my leather today.......
got it cheap, so i'm doing all the interior, the roof lining and the targa roof (the vinyl that surrounds the handle), also doing the whole boot, if theres any left over then its up for grabs..... Andy....- got my leather today.......
My leather arrived today, front and rear sets in a nice beige colour ( front seats with a "Z" logo sewn in , originally was going to have blue / beige, but went for beige instead to brighten up the dark blue interior...... well pleased with them, the rear seats i have just finished, the fronts i'm gonna take a step back and go for it later....... i've also got 100sq ft of the beige leather to retrim the rest of the interior, the roof, boot, door cards etc etc...... i'll post the pics up when finished........ :dance: :dance: Andy.....- islamic cartoons
now that would be real police work, go to the naughty corner my boy, the police are only interested in nicking motorists these days...... If I were to go over to their country and hold a banner up condemning them - what would happen to me ??????? mmmmmmmm posted up on the internet with my head chopped off no doubt.... with the blessing of their government and people alike.... but us civilised people let them tossers get away with murder, literally, and when they riot or " incite racial hatred ", all the friggin police do is take video footage, whats the fookin point in that when most of the tossers have their faces covered and are probably illegals anyway so not on any database, POLICE - WASTE OF TIME...... If I were to be drunk in my local high street, i'd be carted off to the nick for causing a disturbance, but it seems you can cause a riot and threaten violence and they turn a blind eye.... if your skin is brown that is and your a muslim !!!! oh well - back to work..... see ya later.... :mad: :mad: Andy...- islamic cartoons
any f***kin excuse to burn a flag and go on a march....... f**k em all off back to where they came from so they can kill each other off..... makes me sick, should be kissing our feet every morning they wake up for letting them stay instead of sending them back to poverty !!!! i'm no racist, everyone should live together, but it really f**ks me off that they walk our streets chanting " death to the west " when they are living in the west with us who give them a home and a life - GRRRR GRRRRR !!!!!!- rear light conversion ( 99 spec... )
was going to remove it and fill it with the same lens as the clear light conversion, then use some thin reflective tape for the pinstriping on the inside of the lghts ?? just a thought........ Andy....- rear light conversion ( 99 spec... )
