Just a few things I couldn't find the answers to to get me started with modding.

1) How do I go about removing the front and rear badges for painting. I've learned to get the front grill off its a bumper off job but can I remove just the chrome badge? Also the rear one which is the boot release button.

2) VXR fog surrounds. Have seen the VXR has the silver panels around the fogs. Never had a close look but are these panels that can be added on or part of the bumper. I'd like to paint som

Any help I would appreciate

Thanks in advance

Hey folks,
 
I need new tyres, but always conscious about how they perform. Dont/cant break the bank, but at the same time need some decent rubber.
 
My choices are:
- Dunlop SP Sport 1, Part Worn with approx 5.5-6mm tread remaining - around £70 the pair fitted;
- Uniroyal Rainsport 2 - NEW - around £120 the pair fitted;
[size=small]- Nexen N 8000 - NEW - ar

what is the best bulb to buy for the gtc that will go well with LED DLR'S?

and secondly 

remap or race chip i have no idea which would be the best option 

thanks

Picked up a 64 plate 2.0 CDTI SRI sports tourer this morning and so far so good! I just have a few questions.

I only have 1 key which was a little disappointing, what's the best way to go about getting a spare? Saw a few ads on eBay but wasn't sure who to trust and what to pay.

Lastly I have a few patches on the alloys that are rough almost li

I've got a few parts that I'm selling. They are parts I have after changing my interior for a leather one.

5 door hatchback SRI rear seats. In good condition, my car had done 98k when removed, £35.

Collection only unless you arrange a courier to collect. They are located at my parents house in Shrewsbury. I can get them for someone to collect from mine in Brierley Hill if easier.
