  1. Hi James I bought a set of Apex arc8 wheels then had them powder coated as near to frozen gold as I could get.
  2. I have had two Subarus 484 bhp 456bhp I am missing the power
  3. i was planning on fitting a sports cat and Airtec intercooler then get it mapped.
  4. Does nobody have a sports cat fitted?
  5. Other quotes were less. I had seen work from here before very impressed. I haven’t seen them yet my daughter is collecting today. I am away trucking. Fingers crossed
  6. I have just paid £576 for a refurb and a buckle repaired. Two wheels slight corrosion no damage other two as good as. Does that sound about right??
  7. Young man. 😃
  8. The answers came flooding in🙁
  9. I have a E82 135i N55 engine. Is it worth fitting a sports cat ? I plan to have it remapped in the near future. If its a yes what is the best cat to buy ? What other mods would help with the remap ?
  10. I bit the bullet today and took the car to a local detailer DFVD in Newport sth Wales. He wasnt impressed to say the least . He was of the opinion they hadnt done what they had said. So now i am paying to have the car done again. He told me he would back me up if i wanted to put a complaint in to the Car sales i bought it from. I dont think i will bother . Yet again i have been caught
  11. i have a set of virtually brand new Michelin sport 5. 235/40/18 Are there any BMW models that fit this tyre ? They dont fit my 1 Series.☹️
  12. I think so too. Thanks for the reply
  13. I have a 1 series 135i coupe. I want to change the wheels. I would like some 216 BMW wheels. What other options do i have ? I prefer multispoke.
  14. I recently bought a 1 series 135i coupe. As part of the deal i paid for a ceramic coating and machine polish. It was raining when i collected the car so it looked nice and shiny. Two days later in the sunshine i could see light scratches and swirls. I thought the machine polish would get rid of these. I got in touch with the seller and explained the issue. His answer was if i wanted a perfect finish it would cost approx £1200 pounds. He had done a half price deal of £350 for a 5 year ceramic coating. I am thinking was it even done ? How can i tell ? The car does shine but there are plenty of swirls.
  15. OK thanks
