Smile Bling

Well here's just another pointless thread,but hey that"s what make this place so much fun : as most would know I am more in to zing not bling Well after what can olny be described as a exspensive week or so on my XR...2 week window, full set new tyers and wheel alignment $500+, new rear shocks $400, service with filters and oils $100,found some rust bubbles in the window frame then discoverd that they are a clipon suround so thought I might order some new ones only to discover that the old ones fade in 7 years of sun light so replaced to full set (1 of only 3 left in the country) $160 decided a while ago to get a new Momo gear knob as the original was never quite rite $80 .thinking to my self this will give the old girl a new lease on life I unexpectedly one the Craig Christerson trophy at our Febuary drag meet in my Cortina coming with the trophy was a $150 voucher from one of our site sponsers PolePosition Sent off a PM or 2 to Jeff at PP to see what he had in his B seriers BLING shop ( go figure nothing for 30 year old Cortinas) He came up with a full AU Blue silocon hose kit for me : Thanks heaps for that Jeff



So have any of you tryed these and what do you think ? :
So with a spare room full of stuff to do on my car and weekend off all was looking good till the first rain in months came today : that would be why I am here and not out there doing it
