So you have a K&N in you airbox ? Where the airfilter was ? I thought of doing that, but wasn't sure it would fit.

did some more on them today well on one of them. i started on the worst wheel for kurbing wise i could of started on one with none but i thought might aswell start on the worst first. so here goes,
this is what it started of like

during the sanding (using a medium strength sheet)

and what its like now well its better now is this was taken and i though it needed more.


i also went over the whole wheel with a scotch pad so its now very dull and I THINK it may be ready for primmering im not sure. i washed all the rubbish off it aswell so its in the garage drying at the minute.
