Not taking a chance on this going bad by the look of it!
It already has once. That's why it's at Dans now. Even changing the core plugs this time.

The coolant drain plug was that blocked with shit that Dan had to force a screwdriver through it to clear it.

Proper clean now though :cool:

Id leave it a few weeks before sticking that badge on mate, last thing you want should you decide to pull it off is the paint coming with it

I have been thinking the same thing actually Dan. Let the paint harden as not sure what it will look like on. It goes against the sleep image too.

Very good it is too Mick. :D

That car looks the doggies from the back Dezzy very :cool: , nice and clean and uncluttered, indeed true sleeper.....

As for the badge i'm in two minds:

On one hand when you suitably embarrass some cock in some non descript modern turd, they'll see the boot badge on what he thinks is some old piece of shit and he'll know he's been tango'd........................ :D :D :D

On the other, you'll be advertising what's under the bonnet for everybody to see, gives the game away, may as well not bother making the rest of the car look subtle then, the badge blows it.

For me i'd leave the boot badge off, as i've said nice clean lines the way it is now, i like it like that. Definate Wolf in Sheeps clothing.......

That's exactly where I am ATM Paul.

I love how clean it looks. I also like the idea of the modern badge just as a little suggestion to what kind of lump is under the bonnet.

I am not sure it will totally give the game away as most people (not us obviously) won't really take much notice of the badge until I am past them :cool:

No badge Dezzy you're at the finish line and don't want to stop fettling.

Plus an E46 badge will look lame.

No badge or if you MUST make one from E30 characters!

316 is never going to cut it Rav. If I was going down that route it would be 320.

Another vote for no Badge dezzy.
Just looks so clean without the Spoiler, anything added would just be clutter.
Besides, why let the victims know what they have been slaughtered by ?
Mind games are so much crueller.

Noooooo you can't write Ratch is right anywhere on the forum mate. We will never hear the end of it.

I was edging towards no badge myself but I think I will leave it off for now.

I would have to be 100% sure to fit it as they are a pain to remove again. :D

Mate, you know my thoughts on it, if there has to be a badge then use E30 fonts. My personal opinion is that the modern fonts look wrong on an E30.
