matts ek9


F*** matt!

I know how you feel mate i F*** mine as well, but got a new one now!

Your 9 looks awesome now:nice: i cant believe it only took you 2 day's to re shell:bow: hope you have more luck with this one.

Take it easy mate!
 
yeh matey i remember taliking to you bout maybe purchasing you're front bumper? you going to come to the meet next sunday?? :)
 
o'eah yeah i remember now! did you buy a new one a fit a lip 2 it, just wondering because the one in the photo not painted?

Is that the one in thatcham, berkshire? if it is its a bit far for me mate 180 miles one way:(( im hoping 2 go 2 the one in castel comb though:)
 
yeh its in newbury, castle comb is a great show :). i bought a replica bumper with plans to get it spreyed but then japperformance called me to say they had an oem bump/splitter/grill in for me and i bought it for £260 picked it up the next day then sold the rep for £100 which is £20 less then what i paid so didnt loose out tooo badly. at the time we re-built the car could'nt find an oem bumper hence the plan with the rep but oem is best :)
 
Where did you get the new shell?

My mate wants to re shell his dc2.

then hopefully get front and rear camber kit and a fast road set up then plenty of track time as thats what the 9's all about:drive:
 
Nice car! :bow:

I can't live with a/c :p
 
i dont wanna sound stupid, but when you say re shell, do you mean took your bent smashed one and had donor parts from another to repair? or took all your stuff out and put it in a new chassis :S confuzzled
