Things I like

I like it when one of your office staff ignores the handle on the brand new, bright red door to the retail shop; and instead tries to walk through the glass panel next to it. And i like it when it's captured on CCTV.

Let's hope she likes the Christmas card i've got in mind for her now.....


Omg mate that's PRICELESS!!!

I wish wish WISH I could see a couple of the guys at work do that. Properly laughing here.
 
Had a day messing with cars. Mainly my mates flamer, little bits to tidy it up and a few niggles to be fixed.
Plastidipped all the faded plastics, yellow fogs, nipped up some bolts that were loose and I witnessed my mate cleaning his engine bay for the very first time. Only took him 10 years!
Oh and I got my diffuser and mirror surround plastidipped too. Nice and black now [emoji106]
Some pics from the day.

Love flamers! I'll bully my mate into getting the manifold sprayed as well as a few other bits too.

You can see the difference in colour on the diffuser, and the mirror cover dried perfectly so ignore the horrible state it's in there. Ended up putting the cars back together by torchlight!

Flamer!!! My god that's a colour!

Wondering how the plastidip is going to hold up near the heat of the exhaust. Have you ever put it near something that hot before?

I haven't myself but the American seller who's on YouTube as dipyourcar plastidipped his exhaust tips on an s4 I think it was, and it held up fine! So I think I'll be alright with the diffuser!

Final day spent on the flamer... brake sliders freed up and all fluid changed for fresh stuff.
Not my cup of tea but my mate plastidipped the lower bumper section as it was littered with stone chips.... I guess it tidies the front end up a bit.

I've checked it over and not even a tiny bit of discolouring so it'll be fine I think. It's only early days but only took me half an hour to spray it so easily redone and looks better than paint due to retaining the original texture.

It's bloody amazing stuff isn't it? Wears pretty well from what I've seen too. As with all things like this, careful application and really thorough cleaning before hand goes a long long way.

Glad it's holding up well mate. Been tempted for a while to have a go at our front grilles.
