Good looking car! Now i want to do some work on my car :P
Might be a bit late here. But did you drop the vinyl wrap on the baguettes because you need to take the baguettes off? i want to do this to my car.

Thanks for the feedback.....it`s been two years of unconditional love and plenty of fun to drive all the way!

Just finished going thru this thread and its been a great read for a new comer to the fold its given me a few ideas of things to do to my bumble bee hdi not sure what will be the 1st thing will be as always cost comes into it , 2 kids of 11 and 14 are very good at draining the wallet , but I do fancy the remap maybe treat it in the new year .........

Thanks Funky.....it would have been easy to botch.......so the guy that fitted it riveted it in 12 places so it is firmly attached! I ordered my Samurai Rubber Lip on Amazon I think and they are not very expensive at all! It is light in weight and durable/flexible. I`m pleased with it.

Like it Jez. Was it easy to do? Where did you get it from?

[JEZDS3]

The Samurai Rubber Splitter Lip.........It`s On!

Work in progress update!

It`s been a while since I have been on here but La Petite Fusee has evolved a little since my last post!

No new clutch needed as yet ,which is a relief but WTF now has my Triple R Splitter which she is going to pamper and fit on her car.

I have also put my air filter box and K&N panel filter back on and my car is running fine with a nice clean filter in.
The GSR induction kit was fun but I did find I had to keep adjusting and re tightening the hose at the turbo as it kept coming off!

I will have a new flexible splitter lip fitted in November and this will be able to deal with the local animals and roadkill in Hampshire
......my Triple R splitter was taking too many hits so it was time to say goodbye!

[JEZDS3]

Yes......a clutch upgrade will be worth considering!

[TomAsprey]

Wow.. looks awesome mate

[lfcrule1972]

I'm planning to do the same on mine, no issues yet but apparently either a Sachs organic or sintered clutch is the next step....

[JEZDS3]

Needless to say I have been "testing" La Petite Fusee on the drive home from my Mum`s house in Romsey to my home near Basingstoke and there are some cracking roads to try.....A30/A33. One is a Roman road and the other is a quiet dual carriageway next to M3 so great fun through all the 6 gears!

[JEZDS3]

Awesome!! How was the drive back Jez? Is there a massive difference in performance? Will the clutch need to be upgraded or will the OEM one be OK and not fail?

Drive home was fun and clutch seems fine at the moment!
