Pleasure. All F-Type’s are beautiful but black ones are something else.

BCS are amazing. Not cheap but I wanted a proper job. The stuff they turn out is better than leaving the dealer. Mine were the base cast grey calipers...

Love the Candy apple, looks like i will be taking a visit to BCS later in the year ..... just the final colour choice to make .... Gold anodised would be cool, but perhaps black with gold decals might keep to my stealth mode, oh decisions, decisions !! Sometime life becomes so tough !

I am the same. Love the idea of slamming the car but my village has so many speed ramps that makes it impossible to do. My next mod is the project 7 front grill. I have ordered my stick on No plates for the bonnet. Just need to order the grill next. I already have the gold plated jag emblems to fit. God leave the thing alone already. Cannot stop buying bits for it.

Hi Gasman2

Nice car .... sounds like you have made the power upgrades i am thinking of, any more detail on these would be appreciated??

I have taken the plunge and ordered some front Wortec rotors before i do my power upgrades .... fitment in early July, they look and do the business by all accounts .... Will post some pictures then.

In addition been to see about getting some items carbon dipped by Jason at Coated in Worthing, I bought the genuine Jag carbon side vents, but they are too bright for my stealth project i need a much darker carbon look for the sides and bonnet vents

So much to do before the summers over !! I will listen out for the sound of another V8 from my windows in Ashington !!

Hi
So did you get the Wortec rotors?
If so, where from?

I'm very tempted!!

Hi Rogere

I sure did ....... wow !!

Wortec have just set up a workshop of their own in Chichester which is reasonably close for me , had a great morning there with Paul and Colin who fitted the rotors.

Paul then helps you bed them in properly !!! Now thats an experience you don't want to miss out on !

Also had yellow stuff pads fitted to standard callipers, altogether a very noticeable difference to the braking.

Suggest you email anneliese@wortec.co.uk for prices and fitting dates (Pauls wife)

You won't regret it !!
