haha UV lights in that car would look nuts... but on a more serious note, I reckon that same job in a glossy silver would be nice.

Hmm, thanks for your opinions though, I'm still in two minds over it.

If you haven't made up your mind, then u dont like it, though you don't hate it....

But most importantly.... you don't like it! Well that's what I've gathered from your responses.....

Don't settle on second best... Pay for what you want, don't just get what u paid for.. (make sense? :confused: )

Yeah, I know.........go with you you like....... I'm conservative by nature, but I can just hear the rice boy in me, yearning to come out!

Thansk again for the comments though, its all constructive. I guess I was hoping that somebody could give a great argument to convince me which way to go.

I think what Dr Sigmund Freud here is trying to say is that he dun like it nu should get what you originally wanted.

Not that I dun like it, but when I am looking at getting something for myself, If I dun like it right away, and I am in 2 minds, it is b/c sub-conciously I am trying to convince myself to get it for whatever reason it may be (eg: can't b f'd looking anymore, haven't found anything better, etc). In this case I think it is b/c it has been done already, and although he doesn't DISlike it, it is not what he really wanted...

I've done this, before and many other people have before....

But if I were in this position, I would be happier with a white dash rather than a broken dash! If it is growing on you, then keep it till you're sick if it, then get what u really want....

I'd wait for the new paint dude. That white is just way to out there man. But I reckon it would look choice with the gun metal. Plus you will probably find yourself constantly cleaning the white. My mate did the same as you with yellow (spew) and you can see where it has worn, it looks tragic. Another reason I would go for a darker colour.

Being rice is not about manual or automatic!!!

In fact, manual cars is more rice than automatics because you can change the gearknob easily with the one flashing lights, etc....

Silver goes nicely with std trim, but that cream colour is a bit showy and look out of place with your std seat/door trim. If you retrim your door insert and seat upholstery with cream leather or vinyl then it'll go along very nicely... and it'll look that you're doing the whole lot, not just a patch up job.

haha, looks like a piano or black and white minstril or something!

Seriously though, i'd get rid of it and do something like a gunmetal grey like you said or satin black. I reckon if you are gonna go 'rice' then do it with silver/chrome. Each to their own though.....

I'm gonna get mine done soon too, two pack?

And what did it cost if you don't mind me asking?

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
