  1. Could be any veichle sadly I reversed into someone once at like 5mph an caused alot more damage than that in that sort of area, depends how strong the other car is etc I'm still paying for that years on in insurance, but at least I admitted it :( your having a really bad time & I hope you can sort something out.. I understand how tight times are these days an this stuff does not help...
  2. They were selling them in that colour to get rid of stock very cheap 3yrs ago sadly so I can imagine they ran out by now(make sure you check your colour), but your best bet it to keep tryin the dealers as it may come sprayed so cheaper I got mine £35 from them back in the day :P thanks to Chris S on here **EDIT** yes sorry don't PM him my bad-this was 3years ago and he no longer works there lol..
  3. This is one of the best mods, so easy but looks alot better, so I believe anyway.
  4. Gr8 pic, I take it you didnt go anywhere today ;)
  5. Got to work fine which was good, infact impressed compared to past experiences. But lunch time went to my dads an got totally stuck I must add was going sideways alot of the time lol.. but now it's stuck had to leave it there, cant shovel whole streets such a joke.. Getting my dad in the 4x4 to drive me around ;) lucky for me :D So carless, hope it melts asap
  6. It may well be auto-sol sorry lol, what ever they sell in tubes at halfords but it is really good, I just did the tip also as you cant see the rest lol... with it on the car it's easy enough, if you took it off obviously you can do at your own leisure an do an even better job :) but to much messing around for me lol
  7. I just used auto glym I think it was, metal polish an a cloth. Came up as good as new it was brilliant stuff :D
  8. Is that a decat as well? There are 3 pipes???
  9. Think they might need another layer of top coat matey to make them slightly darker, The new paint makes my car look quite dull at the moment Out with the wax & i'm sure it will be fine mate.. Looks a great finish though.
  10. Good stuff Chris, is it matching the colour of the car well?
  11. I do like the FRS, I would get one if I could afford it and the insurance...lol I have to start saving ;) Looks great either way, alot of time, effort has been put in.
  12. A pic is needed ;) did you just wire them to the stock boot light wire?
  13. I really like the lights well done mate, top stuff.
  14. very impressive mate, keep up the top work :)
  15. lol Redz no problem ;) I will update you guys tomorrow on if it works when I change them over, thanks for the quick responses.. The ebayer who sold it to me has also suggested the same before I panic, as they had changed it over also lol.. And another person I contacted who has one for sale, says it sounds like the live perm wire needs to be sorted :) so will get to it tomorrow & swop them round.. Thanks again
  16. Well fitted the DV 720 today and sorted my problems with the subs & remote, there now all wired up with connections & working great, good times.. Now the bad times.. Here is the new dam problem.. It's resetting itself everytime I switch on/off the acc (resets Radio & SQ's), I'm trying to find a manual online which will help me if any of you guys can help it will be greatly apprecitated I want to sort it out tomorrow as thats when I have time to pull it all out again lol.. So I assume the power wires need swopping around in the iso unit or something which is causing the resets? I can't keep this headunit if it keeps resetting it's driving me insane an it's day1 lol.. I watched a film on it so thats all works an the SQ works, radio worked ish although I didnt know how to save new stations to the presets :S
  17. Alrighty redz, I believe their 4ohm SVC's subs and I have them wired like this... But how do I know the power is going to them at 4ohm or 2ohm lol...?
  18. Wow those pipes look huge, thats going to sound loud & great lol...
  19. I will try an get a pic of how its currently wired up and of the sub, so it will help you or I will just show you at the Mid meet as that will be alot easier. I'm wired up on 2 channels, if the one you recommend is just for 1(as I see its mono) I would need 2, as I have 2 subs? Thanks for your time on this..
  20. what are the amps and subs?? its not easy to guess what the rms vs any other rating as they all calculate it different. then not all amps will give the power stated on the box due to other factors such as power supply.. ie most alpine amps will only give there rated output when given a clean 14.4v. JL slash amps will give there stated output at 11v-14v as it has a very good regulated interface, some amps are unregulated which will keep giving more power until either the power supply fails or the amp cooks itself!! if you list the amps and subs available i can suggest what will be the best combo.. Vibe Black Air 10" Amp: Boss PD-4000
  21. Wozza, Stav, Redz any Ice person please help... Another question on seperate issue, so I have looked into my subs more & the 1200watts claimed in the real world are 400RMS each(I have 2) so looking to give this sort of power to them now as there loud now but clearly if I had better power I assume they will work even better... Now my amp which is only 1000watts I'm guessing pumps out like no more than 50RMS to each, clearly underpowering and in time will damage them I suppose.. Well always keepin an eye for something better an now I know what to look for RMS wise I can try and match this. I've got a chance to use a amp which is 4000watts(irrelevant now I know) which in turn gives a good 500RMS to each of my subs.. This is 100RMS over the max i believe, will this be ok or no worse than what i'm doing already? don't want to blow the subs or waste my money lol...
  22. I shall get a splitter part at the weekend then stav thanks just to keep it all simple... So the Power Control would be going into the remote for my amp? I just need to fit one of those little nipple things so it's easy to attach an detatch. Will report back when I get it all working. **Edit** I have no manual or i'd just look it all up myself lol..
  23. Hi guys quick quiz for you Ice gurus, just came to hooking up my new hu but noticed this only has 1 Subwoofer (Blue) rca or end thing (see pic), when I need to connect my 2 Phono leads from my amp into it... Looked on there site an they say I need a mono to stereo cable or the other way round which has really annoyed me. Is there any other way of hooking it up in this mono style? or must I get the other cable so 2 can go to 1. I don't want to just plug them into my rear speaker RCA's as I want to be able to control the subs seperate. Thanks for any help in advance guys :) Also is this P. CNTR the remote cable for my amp it looks spot on blue/white cable on the little diagram on the radio it's looking like the same cable that goes to the amp.
