    as you can see from my profile pic I'm in the middle of a streetfighter type build,but it's a tight budget and I'm determined to get it to look right before it rolls on the tarmac this year then throw some money at it next winter so a lot of the stuff on the list will come from china etc.
    but Today I won a set of aero bar end mirrors from "3 pistons" running at about £70
    with that sort of luck I can now go for the sigma 6 jet kit and save messing around with different jets and trial and error
    I'll post pics when the postie has been 14707820_1139071096148042_8908678561730965030_o.jpg

    First thing I did was out with the studs,used a nut extractor and an impact driver with plenty of shock and unlock soaking overnight

    Sometimes with a build like this there is a lot of fabrication to do and side panels are not easy to get right,and this ain't right but luckily I have a lot of lino floor tiles for templates WP_20160807_002.jpg

    I hade a m8 who hit a car that turned infront of him. His fingers on his left hand were badly squashed by the clutch lever. if he'd have had those fitted he would now be minus 3 or 4 fingers. please reconsider using these

    It's an optical illusion they aren't as sharp as they look,I,ve been using them on the meanstreak for years
