Anyone "detailed" their engine bay? I'm thinking of treating mine to a bit of a spit and polish and wouldn't mind seeing any piccies of what you've done if you've done it. Linkies to any nice shiny bits suppliers would be good too biggrin

I'm guessing this is the kinda thing you're after - Here's one of a chimp snapped at last year's chimfest:



Sorry, can't tell you whose it is but if anybody'd like to step up and take the credit it was a fine looking bay.

Press "quote" on any of the posts above with pictures in and you'll see how it's done. Basically it's the url surrounded with an opening [pic] and a closing without any spaces.[/pic]

Cheers again bloke. PS; nice wheels by the way, tasty.
Grifalo, Cheers too bloke but thankfully DH saved me the embarassment of failure.
Oh and as for suppliers, ACT did the dect/ceramic coated exhaust, the rest is elbow grease and patience.
