Nice!

No stupid, "look at my massively wide wheels with tires that are way to small to fit so I can get them under my arches" nonsense too. Excellent :thumbright:

Nice to see you've still got her Fil. Looks stunning bud.

Another little update as it's been some months! :O

First of all though, looking back at the pics of the daily, I do miss how she used to look!

Repaired with the help of, direction and teaching from a friend over the winter months a new front end for the 7, AutoExe FD02, rather rare these days and far shorter nosed than the other old school RE-A AD Facer....... then after sanding, priming and spraying, fitted some FEED side steps I've had for far tooooo long, so looking a little different nowadays! Oh, nearly forgot, got the KnightSport mirrors fitted too, left them black so there's a bit of a theme coming together. Still need the FDUKin paint sorted though.... but for now, it'll have to do!

ttfn Phil

**Posted:** Wed Jun 06, 2012 5:32 pm

How do again!

Bit more of an update for anyone that's interested. Still got the spoiler and indeed the Rega's ( the latter defo worth holding onto as an investment, for the foreseeable! )

Still a little rough around the edges ( and due a full paint job / wrap... but there really is only so much time and more importantly money available!... admittedly, a bit of an impulsive at the end of last year may have knocked that back a little further! :oops:

) but I've been busy over the winter months and indeed the 1st 3 or so of this year.... it's now sporting a bit of a different look for 2013!

Thought some of you may be interested / like to see

Stunning and I want your work Meisters or are they SSR professors? either way I want them

**Posted:** Tue Jun 04, 2013 8:24 pm

Cheers man and well spotted, the latter they are..... in some rather tasty, rare and interesting widths/offsets

**Posted:** Tue Jun 04, 2013 8:33 pm

I found a set for sale on eBay last year that were not advertised properly and stupidly I showed the link to someone that I thought was a friend and told them I was bidding on them. He ended up snipping them from me. Got them for £120 and are original ssr professors split's. You can imagine I was very pissed off

**Posted:** Tue Jun 04, 2013 10:20 pm

Wow, what a joker. Should have kept the info to yourself for sure, sad times!:-(

**Posted:** Tue Jun 04, 2013 10:46 pm

Great updates mate! Hope you're doing ok

I've still got that decat of yours :lol:

I thought about you just the other day, strangely! Visiting a friend in MK (Emerson Valley) and I was like - I'm sure he lives round here somewhere...

**Posted:** Wed Jun 05, 2013 8:57 am

Good times Hughie, you still not fitted it then! Wow... how long ago was that, lol?! :P

Cool cool and yep, not far from Emerson buddy.

Take care and keeping on modding

**Posted:** Wed Jun 05, 2013 8:59 am

Good to hear buddy, sound good / work well ?!

Didn't realise you were only over in Blisworth ... I've been over there a good few times to the Royal Oak, playing a few matches in the old skittles league ( I've played for the Fox & Hounds in Stony for the last season and prior to that, the Barley Mow @ Cosgrove for a few years! )

)

**Posted:** Wed Jun 05, 2013 9:11 am

Yeah loved it, hence why I still have it! :lol:

I plan on re-using it when I do the engine swap too!

Yep not a million miles away! Oh cool, I've only been to the Royal Oak a couple of times. I live opposite the school

**Posted:** Wed Jun 05, 2013 9:12 am
