This might seem like a stupid question, but where did ya get the sticker from? haha

 

[HERONVY]

Cheers mate, car looks good too, the interior looks like its in great condition

Cancel the order from v6performance. The race flow intake is just a Mace intake but more expensive. Plus Ive heard the heat shields can cut the spark plug leads.

Had to order from them as mace do not ship to my adress. They've been very helpful so far, so have nothing really bad to say about them to be honest. As far as the heat shield goes, thanks for this info, i'll just have to put some felt or something around the edges that have been cut to help prevent them cutting the leads.
No worries whitesack! Thanks i try and keep it as clean and neat as i can

Looking good! I got the plenum and manifold spacer, but me being a dick didn't spray em before hand haha. I will be taking it apart again and respaying them. That being said, what paint did you use on them?
