Got my car back this evening. Passed 2nd time around :roll:

Failed because of emissions, rear drums and my HID's. They couldn't get a beam pattern, which I was half expecting. I removed my rear LED's and BMC CDA pre test. Luckily after a good service it passed.

Now get the fun of putting it all back together :wink:

Hi,

All i've done is added a BMC CDA induction kit. The hose I have got feeds cold air direct to the filter. Also got HID ballast's in the bay for my lights but thats not a engine mod. I haven't got performance hose's but doubt they'll do much unless on a highly modded engine.

That really is one of the nicest mods on here. Good workmanship, doesn't look chavvy, just a really decent set of understated and high quality mods.

Top job.
