I changed my oil today using an oil extractor and then fannied about with vcds to correct the distance and time to the next inspection as the tech who did the first one either couldn't be bothered or forgot to reset it.
What type of lance and also what snow foam are you using and also how diluted is it, for example a quality lance with say Valet pro Ph neutral will stick like glue to any ceramic coating, also don't dilute the stuffstruggled washing the car today, the ceramic/hydrophobic coating wouldn't allow water or snow foam to stick!3rd world problems right here!!

Those tyres look gorgeous but be careful in the wet! Or mist...!

As DJAlix says, Plasti-Dip is an option, though it could scratch and start to peel with constant use. I think you're spot on with Sand > Prime > Paint!
Im told these tyres dont last long at all. The idea was to make the KMs count. I hope.Very smart mate.....
But someones pinched most of your tread.....
Haha very considerate, thanksYeah I wasn't too sure on plastidip, plus I have the other paints etc
I will post a link up later after trying to fit it... Will make sure it fits first before you all go and buy one haha
Out of interest would you be needing to paint yours too? Or you went for light headlining?
