    similar to other stoppers i presume then buddy.

    also i see why you keep to what your good at, why remove the engine etc yourself just for the bragging rights of "ive done it myself" if your more comfortable to let your friends/work buddies do it for you. then so be it. nothing wrong with that.

    Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming, “DAMN, what a ride!!”

    Yes pal just like the majority of normal stoppers but remember to buy a decent product then its less likely to sink and not show all your chips again in six months. On the above I like to do as much as I can with my car using my ideas/skills and knowledge to the best of my ability however I do like everything to be to a high standard so If I feel Its something Im not capable of then yes I'll let someone else suitable for the job take it on. Pretty much how many are with the bodywork side of things when it comes to the better standard of novas out there Im just the other way around!

    As are the Mini adventure stickers!!! hence why I wanted one to go with other dealer spec items recently fitted. Originality is the way forward.
