    I don't think you'd get the initial bond.

    Self healing clear coat...wow.....

    Found this The coating is applied in a 15 micron layer and is said to last 5+ years (like a normal clear coat). This coating can not be topped with a ceramic or glass coating because that would cover up the self leveling layer, however it can be topped with a water based sealant like CarPro HydrO2 or CarPro Reload. These sealants will increase gloss and hydrophobic properties that the Immortal Coating may lack. The big kicker is going to be the cost of the product, cost of application, and required application environment. This product MUST be applied in a paint booth/clean room environment and is sprayed on just like a clear coat. I would expect the costs to be in the thousands for application. Thousands will be $ as it was a U.S. Site

    Wow indeed! Just one problem. We can't get anything up to 40 degrees in this country. Lol.

    Says in AutoExpress that the parts will be available to buy separately. If they can be believed.

    2015 Budget

    If like a lot of people have the car from new on 3 years options then the cost spread out would be £313 per year. Not cheap.

    I was thinking resonated anyway but as Lauren said they will just taylor it to my preference.

    Rays 57xtreme wheels fitted

    Give it a go. Only takes an hour to do them all. Brushing the spray on means it dries in no time. Plus you get a the same textured look that's on the callipers.
  12. Hi All. I bought these wheels from Masaya recently. Had them refurbished and fitted them today. Before And now... Fill the arches a lot better.

    Rays 57xtreme wheels fitted

    Hi mate. Just painted it in place. Bit of a scrub with a wire brush then alcohol wipe down. Just pained what I could see. I found the silver Hammerite spray was best. I sprayed it in the lid and brushed it on. Only needed one coat.

    Anyway. Stick with 2.5" tube or a bit bigger?

    That's just the 2nd cat back mate not the full primary system.

    I'll have the R&D argument I feel the same. If JP can copy the design of say the Milltek with the same diameter pipe I'd of thought the power gains would be identical for hopefully £300 less than an off the shelf Milltek.

    Even more for the resonated too.

    Cheers mate. Sounds decent then apart from the service. I saw TD exhaust and thought that they may supply them as they to with TDI n.

    They make some good exhausts on the civic scene for TDI north. Lifetime warranty too.

    Reason being I can have it exactly how I want it and I've had a quote over the phone of around £750 for a system the same as the Milltek primary which is around £1050 if I'm not mistaken.
