I did it with a friend Tom, just got hold of a black strip of vinyl and winged it.
Looking damn good!!! Yellow badges needed
Yellow badges, you had to throw that one in the mix didn't you... Got me thinking now.. Lol

This is my 2nd attempt at the "Airasia" sunstrip, the first one ripped off at 70mph, think it was because I put it on wet. This one was put on dry so should not be going anywhere..
I want one

I want one
The first one I had was from Renaultsport themselves but I had this one custom made.
It cost £33. If anyone is interested I can either give you the contact details of the company or if a few people want them I can organise a group buy as they said they would give me price breaks on 5, 10 or 20.

For a group buy they would have to all be the same, if, you wanted something one off they can do it, any colour strip, any font any colour or any graphic. That would be the same price as mine. I can sort it for you mate or put you onto them.
Got that from the FIA themselves, came with a guest pack for a F1 test that I was invited to at Silverstone a couple of years ago. I just got hold of one for Tom, can ask for another if you want one mate.

Last wednesday I took the plunge and got the centre silencer removed from my milltek.
Its very loud, its raspy, it pops, it bangs and I love it.. Lol
To get the job done properly I purchased the following from Jetex (note that the Milltek is 2.5"):
500mm lengh pipe, 2.5" diameter
Double end sleeve 2.5"
I went for these parts so that it could be reversed with reletive ease.
Installation was fairly easy and quick, just under an hour.
First the car went on the ramps.... (cheeky excuse for a photo really.. Lol)
Then the exhaust was removed from the decat pipe to the back boxes so that the silencer could be removed. The silencer had to be cut off from one side only as the other side is sleeved. Not sure if this is the same on the standard set-up.
The replacement pipes were then put back in using clamps and a bit of exhaust sealent..
Overall I am really happy with it, garage charged me £45 to fit and i've not noticed any difference in flatspot but the car was mapped after first having the decated Milltek.
Drove through the dartford tunnel yesterday and couldn't resist revving the nuts off it cid it sounded so immense... I really must get a video....
