after using some of the DIY guides on this site i've found them very very useful (especially the wing mirror painting guide)
i just wondered, why not put a DIY Guide request sub-forum into the DIY forum.

If a member or a few others needed to know how to do a specific thing and it would be useful for future reference with other members, then they can request a guide in the sub-forum i have suggested.

Then if a person feels nice enough they can make a guide for it...

To me this sounds like a good idea..

its hard to do a guide unless your doing the mod/repair yourself cos youd have to do pictures step by step and use trial and error for the best ways to do stuff with tips etc for a half decent guide.

there is a thread 'what would you like' post on there.

or ask in the relevant section of the questions on how to do stuff. chances are someone on here will have done it

ah cool guys. glad im of some help, lol. i could do a quikshift one and alloy refurb but theres already good ones on there. new guides when they are delivered will be how to fit a radiator, 4-2-1 manifold, lower springs and maybe a de-cat
