Use photbucket or image shack ,put the pictures onto your pc then upload to either websites (both free) the copy the 'IMG code' into your post OR you could cheat and just send them to Rob i'm sure he won't mind putting them up for you :D

just to let you all know ill sort pics out tomorrow as the camera lead seems to have dissapeared, get new one in morning! jobs a good un,ive never seen a fmic fitted before imo this is a very good fitting kit no cutting of panels required and bolt holes are all ready on the car for the ic so i didnt even need to get the drill out. However trimming the bumper to fit is a right pain in the arse! but in the end im happy with the result and the welding man is coming tomorrow to tig on a fitting for my bov as these kits dont have a fitting for a bov and at the moment it sounds like a horse when i come off the throttle. cheers diesel75 for your help this evening :thumbsup:

the tv remote is on the table and i cant be arsed to get up.So anyway i was thinking about the car...ive done a fair but of work on it in the last 9months and the shame of it is i didnt really take many pics of it from the begining,ner mind tho i can see what ive done because it was a bit grubby...to say the least. i cleaned it at work in my t & dinner breaks. Done a few mods most standard stuff that needed changeing anyway because it restricted the motor...3"exh&decat,walbro255,blue powertec inductn,blitz dsbc,remap chip@1.1bar,baileys,front/rear droplinks&arb bushes,front discs and pads all round,autobahn88 front mount and tomorrow if its rianing im gonna go in the garage and make a cold air feed from the old intercooler scoop to the filter with some toilet roll tubes and double sided sticky tape or then again maybe some nice ducting pipe finished off with polished alley trumpets or THEN AGAIN before i do that no doubt the mrs will give me loads of shit again cos she rekons i think more of the(piece of shit)car than i do of her,,, :rofl: ..get with it woman you sit in it but you never clean the bastard....do you? you slam the doors to f&*k and i only stopped smoking in it cos you get fag ash shit all over the gaf. didnt really do that but them things just seem to jar my head a bit and make me want to drive like im on crystal meth i really need to remember with this car i could quiet easily loose my licence and as im just about to reach my first 2 years of owning a licence without any points after been without a licence for about 10 years preohvious i will finally admit i drive a hole lot steadier than i used to. But its an auto it feels like a big elastic band. I like this car its better than the escort i had when i got my dl back even tho the old escort was a tidy bag ofnuts and bolts and would run for about 3 weeks on what i put in the wagon in a week and i dont use it as much . oh well i dont drink alcohol so ill let the motor drink like i used to......oh anyways where the f,f,f,f was i ....no pics :wallbang: yeah im a proper dunce when it comes to computers didnt really have any need for a computer up untill recently so when my mate from nextdoor shows me how its done ill post some up .
