I'm so glad it didn't take too long for the thread to get down to the normal level!

Good work!

In this case will a mk.3 cavalier front bumper be a close fit? Just in case I do get a face full of warm cream I'd like to know i can keep my front end looking half decent.


Not sure about Tescos but I've been running a set of Krispy Kremes for a while now with no issues with sugar ingress into the cabin. My only concern was when I pressed the Air Con button and had a short blast of frosting but this seemed to go away after a few days.

Dont forget the jam needs regular servicing to avoid swarms of wasps taking up residence in your engine bay.

Not sure how well these fit. I might just leave the air box lid off so I can get lots in. I've been careful not to use sellotape to bind them all together, but instead I'm using Micropore for better breathability.

A great solution to a problem no-one ever had there, Mort. Good work!

Mods - can we make this a forum sticky?

I've only just come across this thread. (as it's a particularly dull day in the office)

I read the title and thought, why would someone start a thread about finding a pair of last year's jeans?

Another thinly veiled insult.

Swapped the decat over for a section of down pipe from the front of the house and it sounds epic! I'm getting the smell of cinnamon balls from the car at idle now?? Have I not fitted it correctly?
It's also throwing a sell party now on the dash lights. Should I hone Ken Block?
