Tempted due to pier pressure but not at this time. Would look good though.

Getting some squeal at low speed medium braking..... any suggestions guru? Pads look decent. Just bedding in maybe?

What is it with you and pink? Lol

Today is plastidip & paint repair day .

I'm taking off the front bumper to touch up a few chips. While it's off I'll be dipping the air dam black and installing some black mesh to the vents. The grille will also receive some dip and that's about all as far as plastidip goes.. While the bumper is off the car I'll be touching up the A/C condensor with some black paint.

Moving on from that.....

I'll be removing the Macintosh stereo and installing my Clarion single Din 6 stacker unit which came with the Heritage and including the amp and sub that came with the B4. New Pioneer 3 ways for the front doors & speaker cables also.

I picked up a rather large sheet of professional sound proofing for free at work. It looks like the grey carpet that lines the boot but is 4 - 5 mm thick and is what they use in studios to line the walls for sound proofing. It's lightweight too. So the boot area, floor & doors will get some of that.

Big day....

Fix your fence.

As soon as she hands it to you, slowly take of your pants, then, while staring her straight in the eyes rub it against the tip of you penis, while continuing your painfully intense gaze whisper to her;

"My eye is watering, this might be a bit hot"

I should just convert to single, right?

Looks good dude. You should get a lip..

I like to think of it as borrowing someone's car and driving it better than them.

Some pads just squeal. Mine on the OBK squeal for the first 4 stops and then it goes away.

I admit it has got slightly better over the last couple days. Hopefully it will sort itself out with time and some decent use.
If not I'll just get a new set.

Squeal is a tad embarrassing at times.

Don't like it.

Ta mate.

It's such an easy product to work with and it has a great finish. Touch ups are also quick and easy

I can see why people like this stuff.

It's hard to see in the shots but I put mesh at the rear of the dam to match the grille. Looks bloody good in the flesh.

If I remembered to spray the A/C condensor while the bumper cover was off it would look a bit better so I'll do that soon.

Yeah man, the mesh can be seen... nice...

I think I might try some of that stuff on my air dam, was going to Vinyl it gunmetal grey with Yanns's help, but I might try PlastiDip myself sometime, and see what happens... since it shouldn't be hard to undo if need be...

Hope for both our sakes that stone chips are few and far between

I was also going to do this with my Liberty! Had the mesh stuff ready to go, was going to do it when I did another grille but never got round to it.. Might be able to find somewhere to put it on the foz but I highly doubt it.

Looks good... whole car looks good!
