done this a couple of times just heat them up gently with a hairdryer then pick at the corner and peel off gently if they are quite new or you are lucky they will peel straight off then just give it a quick polish if they have gone quite hard they may leave the sticky residue just rub at it dry and keep at it will all come off then a quick polish looks a million times better too

firstly i was remapping the car when my laptop went dead which just my luck it happened during the map eraser process i was then left with a useless 206
£150 later i got a ecu technician to come out who un-soldered the chip from the ecu and replaced it
hurray i was up and running again
so i got enough guts to try the remapp again with my galletto i uploaded the maximum full power stage 2 mr whippy map and the car was cutting out when accelerating hard and hitting 3-4K revs.
because dave (mr whippy) aims for 80% more power over the original the problem causing the cutting out was worn parts which show up with high power maps
so i began changing parts to eliminate the problem
after replacing all these parts the fault continued
i then found a 110bhp 406 at the scrap yard and got the injectors out of it
so £60 later with the new injectors fitted the car works fine
it came at bit of a shock when i removed the old injectors 3 of them was covered in some gunky type paste/dirt
and the 4th was covered in some sort of dry sutt powder (some sort of carbon)
the car now feels alot more responsive and no longer cutts out so all been well the the engine problems have been solved
at last
i have also actually found some nice gloss black morettes which are waiting to be fitted
for the morrettes ive ordered some
h7 and h1 rainbow bulbs (all weather bulbs)
and some rainbow indicator bulbs to remove that horrible orange glow (errrrr)
not a very good picture but i got my side strips cc

#129: Re: B47t0n's Stage 2 Fmic Hdi Author: b47t0n, Location: sheffieldPosted: Fri Sep 24, 2010 11:25 am ---- na sorry pal havent got a number for him sorry i just contact him via email

im tempted to strip rear out n make it into a van
and concentrate on handling now
#130: Re: B47t0n's Stage 2 Fmic Hdi Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Fri Sep 24, 2010 11:40 am ---- btw fk ak coilovers are damn good for the money
#131: Re: B47t0n's Stage 2 Fmic Hdi Author: b47t0n, Location: sheffieldPosted: Fri Sep 24, 2010 2:05 pm ---- Mine are terrible slam so hard into potholes 1 of my front wheels is slightly buckled because of it
#132: Re: B47t0n's Stage 2 Fmic Hdi Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Fri Sep 24, 2010 3:35 pm ---- these are still a bit hard into and out of potholes but then it is dropped about 70mm atm lol.
speaking of potholes, am gutted as today i hit a really deep one and the front bumper bottomed out and has cracked not a happy bunny.
i can fix buckled wheels if you came to the garage.....£60 to repair it (not my price, fixed price at the garage)
#133: Re: B47t0n's Stage 2 Fmic Hdi Author: b47t0n, Location: sheffieldPosted: Sat Sep 25, 2010 6:04 am ---- i think the garage sorted the buckle with weights as it wasnt really big but ill bare that in mind just in case it buckles even worse
ahhh i would be annoyed with that n the bumper at least you can spray thoe
well today my prism bulbs arrived
before
after
so you get the idea
alot better than that horribe orange glow. Last edited by b47t0n on Sun Sep 26, 2010 12:28 pm; edited 1 time in total
