anyone knows what type of glue those bodykits shop using? my rear lip wasn't fitted nicely so thought of buying the glue to fix up myself.

Hi guys.

Nice meeting all who is present today at the DIY meetup.

Special thanks to bro simple for the help in installing the mounting brkts and Pete for the extra brass fitting which is needed for the PCV hose.

All in all I am very satisfied & happy with the mini oil catch tank!
RPM is just a tid lower than before but not erratic which was expected before the installation.

Allan : Why never snap my picture ? Ron more photogenic issit?
:lol: :lol: :lol:

Regards,

Yo bros,

Thanks for everyone who have been there at DIY day, see and learn a lot from many of the bros there. Special thanks to peter for organising the DIY day, yr precious effort is appreciated. Should there another round of DIY, I will be there to try other things, mostly likely the cold air piping. Any bros know where can get the piping?

Today, I had managed to insulate my aircon piping with the rubber hose, it see like the aircon cool slightly better. Will try again tom in the afternoon to confirm the results, update later, cheers :lol:
