Andeep - yeah everything's fine mate :) The rear wide arches need a slight fix and re-spray cos after settling on car with all the general driving and drifting, there's some cracks where fireglass had to be used to smooth the new panel over the old. So the bodyshop are correcting this for free etc.

Have a good un mate and soz I can't make this :(

Had a wicked time there! Loved the EDC course, but didn't have the balls to pull off the 3rd gear drift.

Any tips on getting cone transfer off paintwork? :D

Liquid clay bar is good at removing tyre marks from paintwork after they shred and mark the whole car up lol

Glad you had fun mate... don't worry you'll deffo be gunning for them 3rd gear 60 mph drifts next time lol ;)


I'm sure clay bar would be the best thing to get rid of those cone marks... failing that T-cut but I never use the stuff.

A combination of wet and dry, Meguiars scratchx and liquid claybar has removed the cone marks. Just need to go over it again.

All of the tyre marks came off with claybar, as all it is is just rubber and the finish is as good as new :D

It looked really bad:

Yeah, was pretty scary when I saw that! But it was just tyre marks and they simply rubbed off with no damage! Looks way worse than what it was!

Just noticed your in Kenya Craig, where abouts? My parents from from there.

When the tyre shredded, it came off in a long strip still attached to the wheel. So when the wheel would rotate the strip would fly about and hit the car lol.
