If you can send some pics to me via email and we can go from there. We can then see about a second opinion on whats been done and what it should have cost.

Cheers.
Basically it has had a tiny amount of underseal sparingly sprayed around the underside, not even enough to cover the white underside. The chassis rails have not been undersealed internally either.

Cost wise its not even likely to be 50 quids worth of time and a rattle can of underseal.

Lovely 9 GT,
I was close to buying this car from Mike myself when he had all the ctec parts on it,
I bought Callum's 9 MR RS instead tho, they look very similar

Woulda loved it with all the CTEC parts left on it, and to be fair Mike did offer the exhaust and intercooler to me when I went to view it but couldn't afford the extra unfortunately.

Still very very happy with the car as it though :D

I saw Callum's come up for sale and within 12 hours you'd put a deposit on it lol, lovely car. I've got an MR RS front splitter to go on next week too :)

Cheers

Lol I bought it fast as there was a lot of interest in it and I had been waiting for the right car to come up.
I like your new comp wheels and the splitter will set it off, I prefer the splitters colour coded to the carbon,
Have U got any more plans for it?

Travelled a long way for it too if you're down this way!

I prefer them colour coded too on white

I'd like to get the engine forged or maybe just a rod job and then a bigger turbo of some description. Had a GT3076 with v band Tial housing and external wastegate on my old Corsa and need a screamer pipe back in my life :lol:

So yesterday I took my car to Michael (F1MSN) to have my bonnet, bumper and RS MR front splitter painted :)

Bumper and bonnet off



Bumper stripped down



I repaired some dents/deep stonechips while Michael cracked on with the bumper











I also got rid of the number plate holder holes







In the oven ready for primer





Primed...





We then called it a night and had pizza and played GTA V :smthumbup

Came back this morning to flat the bumper and bonnet





Michael also freshened up all the mesh :)



Splitter prepped and ready to go



Time for some basecoat..















anddd lacquered























Bumper all back together...so much is bolted/screwed to them!



All fitted up :)



Apologies for all the pics!

I'm gonna try and get some better ones tomorrow after I've washed it.

Big thanks to Michael once again, defo owe him a few favours now!

Does look very nice :)
Looking great! :)
Thanks, very happy with it!

Superb work, where is he based as its just what i need doing to me e9?
Finchampstead near Wokingham, thanks for the gauges btw, meant to PM you :smthumbup

I thought this car used to have ray wheel ce37s also you might wanna free your locking rings on your coilovers before they sieze on oil them up.
Yeah it used to, Mike took them off before he sold it. Wasn't a fan anyway dare i say!

I've adjusted the coilovers and oiled them already, they weren't siezed anyway :)

Looks top quality
Cheers

Yeah do it, be all fresh for the good weather then :)

Did all that whilst suffering from man flu! unbelievable tekkers :mhihi:
Haha thanks again mate!
