Hi guys, just 2 questions: 1) Please can someone post some in-depth instructions on how to fit a Trust induction kit. I am awaiting delivery of it at the moment (thanks imi). I have searched the site but couldn't find in-depth instructions which i need as i am not very mechanic minded! 2) I have bought a TRD style sports grille off E-Bay but have not fitted it yet. It is black so should it be painted and if so how much will this cost or should I fit it straight to the car (Granite Sky)? Any help would be appreciated :D Cheers Chris

Awesome to see Cisse back so soon, he could win us the Semi now. Great performance (Baros aside) the defence was superb!! Bring on Chelsea - 1 English team in the final great!! YNWA :D

Superb Game, Beckham was my M.O.T.M!! Nice for Owen to get a goal as well. Haven't seen a game as good as that for ages. :D

You should be able to look on your security settings. I have McAfee Security Center and I double click the icon in the tray, then click on Personal Firewall. Then click on view Internet applications list and it shows a list of internet applications allowed or blocked by your firewall. If you are using a different Security Provider it will be a different process but probably be worded similarly. Hope this helps Chris :D

Try checking your Firewall, sometimes this may block certain sites :mat: Hope this helps you Chris :D

Upside down works every time for me, had this same problem myself. Works a treat!! Chris

Thanks for all the help guys, this really is a top class club!! :D I have been back and had the 40 offset wheels fitted, there doesn't seem to be any problems now and I am really chuffed with them. So chuffed I washed and polished my Lex yesterday, fitted my caliper stickers and even removed my dirty exhaust trim for a polish!!!!! Looking nice now Cheers again guys Chris
-
Cheers for that idea Anees it worked a treat. I have posted a smaller pic below so you can see the wheels on my car. For an update, i have been back to the garage who have apologised and ordered me a set of 40 offset wheels which should be fitted tomorrow or Monday. Hopefully that will be end of story!!! Chris
-
Sorry file still too big to post!!! Files are about 325k - any ideas how i can get them smaller??? Chris
-
I have checked the boxes and i think they are a 35 offset!! I have e-mailed the wheel manufacturers and they said they make them in a 35 and a 40 offset but dont believe this would cause this problem. Will confirm and try and get the proper offset wheels. Attached is a pic though - excuse the poor quality good pics too large to post!! :D Chris
-
Will this be a problem to put up with if i cannot get the correct offset, only happens over speed bumps with load in the back. Cheers Chris
-
Awesome game. Well done Chelsea. Come On Da Reds 2morrow!!!!!!! YNWA Chris :D
-
I thought maybe it was the offset, will check what offset they are. Was told they were the right ones for the car but a bit worried now. Will this be a problem??? Chris
-
Wheels fitted yesterday but too dark to get decent pics. Took some today but too big to post!!! Will post them tomorrow. Look nice but i seem to get a rub on the back wheels now when going over speed bumps with weight in the back - the wheels are 17", any ideas??? Cheers Chris
-
Cheers Aido. Feel better now as I was a bit nervous as I havent seen them on an IS before. Fitting is Monday so will post pics in the evening. Just painted callipers black with white stickers too :D Chris
-
Yep, 5 x 114.3. :D Hope they look ok Chris
-
