I don't think I'll be there Rik, but Marinabrian isn't the only one with a magic wand.

David Williams should be along later and I hope he'll be in his Firefrost ZT-T

Gonna be there about 12:20 or so. I'll be grabbing food too, I'm just up really late.

Great so see peeps again, another good turnout, especially considering the weather was pleasant, but not really warm. Cheers to all, and thanks to Rich for the bulbs... they've stopped flickering now, but I see what you mean about them being really bright white!!

That plenum was an accident waiting to happen, good ol'd Rich worked his magic once again! And for those interested in the 160 remap, the man to speak to in our neck of the woods is BigRuss.

And yay, the joke was on me at todays meet!!

The sooner you get that bumper fixed the better! Then the jokes can be back on my car like normal

Thanks for the turnout for today's meet.

Nice to welcome back out newer attendees

The weather was kind to us again, despite being a little cold, and what a busy meet it was!

Some nice shiny bullet mirrors fitted along with a new walnut auto knob, a pair of projector headlights fitted too, another diesel saved from the dreaded plenum death with a lovely clean pollen filter to boot, A/C pipes adjusted, a heater pipe saved from rubbing through, some PPD C-Pillar trims went on with some new badges, a highline system fault finding session, a redundant highline removed, a drivers door seal for me and some new headlight bulbs for me and MattyC.

Most importantly was carguy143's owners club grille badge fitting, with a video 'how to' to follow.......

And we managed to get a carvery in......

carguy143 · 17th February 2013, 18:13

Yes all in all a good day. Trying to fit that badge to a ZT with mesh grille though, what a fiddle that was...

Rich sorts out a problem door card after Jim had fitted chrome bullets to Michaels car.

Great photo's Jimbo!!

Mine looks even worse since I ripped the big hole into it for the bodyshop last week lol! The numberplate just adds insult to injury! But every cloud has a silver lining, or in this case a silver bumper, and a Halfords special wonky plate, is better than 3 points and a £60 fine I guess

An excellent day had by all at the Hollow Tree, a big thanks to Rich for the C-Pillar trims and badges and advice.
Jim beat me to it with the pics, but here's a few more.

Great meet again today, lots of jobs done and new members yet again. Took me about an hour to thaw out, that wind was cold.
