There have been a couple of things since my last update.

Firstly I sent my 18 inch pentas (or sri alloys) to get them refurbished. The colour is on a hush. Nothing brash at all, but I can’t wait to see it when its back. I should be getting these back tomorrow. So if you’re lucky, I might post a picture up. Most likely it will be on my social networks anyways. Upon taking the tyres he noticed one of the tyres is close to wear, but ill sort that out come next pay day! Only obvious choice for me has to be Toyos all the way!

At the moment, im rolling on what looks like 17 inch pentas. I cant believe how much 1 inch makes a difference. Especially when I’m so used to seeing 18s on my car all the time. I just wonder what it will look with 19 inch alloys on it!
Here are some other pictures.

Pictures of my fixed splitter that I didn’t get around to putting up.

And my drive in the morning when we had all that fog!

Apart from that, I am trying out the new steam car wash service for my car prior to fast show so I’ll let you know what’s happening with that too!
That’s all so far with my updates.

As always comments and critisms please! otherwise ill see you all soon.

Got my wheels back and they look as sharp as ever. I think the place I got it did a well good job for the price I paid for it. I just need to sort some few little niggles and it will all be there. But anyways, what do you all think?

Also in preparation for the car show, I had my car steam cleaned. It was a good job, and again for the price (£17 a month), it was reasonable too. Only thing I did find out is it kind of made my electrics dodgy! Lol. The weird thing is I took the battery terminals off over night, and it cured itself! I’m so relieved about that though especially that it all happened the night before fast show! Anyway some more pictures. I will post links up if anyone is interested.

And finally I bought some new pressed plates! That will be on as soon as I have the time too! Lol. I will post up my feedback on fast show at a later time too. For now, enjoy!

Also I got my new pressed plates on now too. Looks much more crisp and its legal now too!

Pictures will come up as soon as I can for ya! But other than that, hope you’re all good!

Wheels looked awesome buddy!
I knew an engine steam clean could be risky with the electrics, didnt think about an interior steam clean being risky too! Glad it got sorted :)
Where abouts you get the pressed plates from and how much? Always seem to get people asking about them

Looks quality mate!! Who steam cleaned your interior mate? As I could do with getting mine done to be honest

I was advised against getting my bay steam cleaned ages ago because it wreaks havoc with the electrics

All I used on my bay was some "Gunk" engine degreaser and "Auto Glym" machine & engine cleaner it comes up a treat using that gear and to rinse it off just stand back with the jet wash and give it a couple of tickles lol

i know it weird right! scary stuff, but for some reason he has steam cleaning the dash and theres been no problems at all. reminder. the person i get comes to my house every two weeks to wash my car.

anyways as for the plates. i got them at fast show this year! cost me £30 which isnt a bad price i dont think! you can probably get them cheaper online but i paid £30 for my other plates so it hasn't gone up since anyways.

theres a company called eco mobile valeting. they come to my house every two weeks and clean my car up for me. really good price if you do it through as a subscription. i cant get much time to clean my car inside and out so this is the next best thing for me!

the electrics problem was a weird thing. it seemed to cure itself after too.

other then all that, i have just doing the little things around the car, like for instance fixinf my electric windows

So there was a fault with my window. The passenger side felt like it was tugging so went down sometimes when you closed it. Took it to the garage and they said it was my windows regulator. And now it’s all fixed! I know it isn’t major, but a log is a log. It also cost me £100 which included the labour and 12 months warranty on the item. Hope that was an alright price!

also have been to PVS a couple of months back. was a really good sunny day and i dont think i have posted many pictures on my thread so why not share it on here too!
