Modifications - no, really!!!
Right, as you will by now know i'm sure, I completly disagree with the idea of modifying a car - and i'm right, no questions please
 However, i'd just like to discuss the modification i have planned for my evo this weekend  Yesterday I recieved a lurvely set of carbon fibre mudflaps through the post from Scott Lowe. Looking forward to fitting them Saturday and seeing how  they make the car look.Anyone else done the deed - is it a tricky job ? Fitting kit + instructions look good, but I fear this may be lulling me into a false sense of security!!!
i have a set of Scott Lowe ones on mine. great quality and easy to ft (on a scoob anyway) - all the holes are there already.
One thing you should consider thhough - the ally brackets oxidise and look a bit tacky pretty quickly, so i powder coated mine and used some nicer bolts and the whole thing looks a bit more pukka now. if you dont have access to powder coat, smooth hammerite will do the job. . .  If JP is Roland Rat, them I am Errol the Hamster... His number 1 fan.
the carbon ones look the dogs, post pics as soon as fitted.
1mposter is my hero.
Yes they indeed look
 ! I really regretted not knowing these things existed when I got ours. Still like the blue ones because they give the car a WRC-look. That is until Petter finds his way to Scott Lowe...  
Cheers for the advice Marky Mark, getting them painted tomorrow.
Will post pics once fitted.
 Why getting them painted ? I thought people bought them because of the carbon fibre look ?And if you do it for the weight, adding a layer of paint ain't gonna help you. Or did I miss something (again) ?
Yup, you missed something...
... THE BRACKETS, IM GETTING THE BRACKETS PAINTED.
Let me know the sizes and lengths and can pop a few lovely stainless fasteners in the post. looks so much nicer than the B&Q jobs supplied

What a sweet man..... We should have realised from the wedding shots!!
Is he  ??
not really....Poesy has a FQ400 so i want to f*ck him senseless

Might be the other way round Marky, when Poesy took me for a spin in the FQ400 he did say, " come on wee ladie, a ride for a ride "(didn't really.) Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools talk, because they have to say something.
I will have to have a word with Mr Lowe, I am on his list to get these carbon fibre mudflaps for my car and I have not received anything from him. I drive past his place and I have called in to see him a few times,[nice guy]. I hope you mentioned the WR1 owners club as he promised me some discount.
He is a spot on bloke your right - the carbon ones are due out in the next 2-3 weeks he recons and by the sound of it there's quite a queue. But i'm sure he'll get you sorted, my experience is that he's very honest and efficient.
I mentioned the gangsta mobile, not the wr1oc, but still got a good price.
Re: Modifications - no, really!!!
I am getting confused here, I have just contacted Mr Lowe, and he told me he has not sent any carbon mudflaps out to anyone as he has not got the material yet 
Yeah, ive given you a bit of duff info (got a bit over-excited) - ive got a set in black while I await the carbon ones, about 2-3 weeks he told me.
Have the carbon ones on order but couldnt wait any longer, trust me a white car needs mudflaps, so as they will use the same brackets and fixing positions i did a deal to get some on the car now but keep the cost down when the new ones are available - if you see what i mean  Basically i think i pay for 2 sets of flaps but 1 set of brackets - but i'm confussed myself now!!!Will put some pictures up at the weekend when the're fitted.

Maybe to add to the interest you could post a pic of something else too.... Something a little more interesting other than mudflaps. We have Marky Mark for the BORING pics!
Ps: Look at me with my powder coated brackets :toofunn: Just joking boys.... Remember it is Friday!
No, your right fella - i'm getting way too excited over a set of mudflaps
 but hay its a modification so its bound to give me an extra million horsepower - so I cant wait.It is friday  ......but i'm here till 6.30 
I hear you need the extra horsepower.... I've heard your evo is shit compared to that of a modified 320 by Mr I'm No Mechanic. PMSL
Yeah, probably... ...and my usual reply to Mr know-it-all - err, WHATEVER, bye then...twat!!!
You EVO drivers are all rude..... Southern Evo drivers are even worse!
Yeah,
 I will have to eat some humble pie and retract the ticking off I gave him. I agree with you on the mudflap issue, all cars should have them, even if it's just to stop the stones being thrown back onto the cars following, that's where most stone chips come from.
As long as the car in front doesnt have them so low that they scrape on the floor, and therefore flick up stones.
1mposter is my hero.
You could always get some of the cling film that pops puts on the front of his car.
What are you talking about Coq?
The stones flicking up & hit the windscreen and leaves tiny little chips.
1mposter is my hero.
What does that have to do with the cling film?
