Title: I declare mine finished!
Post by: FIFO on January 16, 2010, 11:24:35 PM

Finally got my last bits of bling led indicators courtesy Big T  [thumbsup]

and finished making up some stainless steel front axle spacers,
and rotor bolts.

That's it no more carbon fibre
No more stainless steel (completely marinised [laugh])
No more nickel plating
No more titanium.
No more billet aluminium
No more bling.
No cyclecat rear sets.no
No pazzo levers no.no
No more what ever i forgot!
No more sleepless nights dreaming bling [roll]

It's finished ,completed ,done,finato,stopped ,no more,nothing, nata,
naught, zero,final ,end off........ [clap] [clap] [clap] [clap]

Hey Rob, how are your polished pipes holding up?
After a month, can you still see a reflection of "Baby Chicken" in them? Or any other reflections? [cheeky]

Meanie the pipes aren't too bad, i did assume they wouldn't stay shinny, but  if you don't let them go to long,a little  metal polish occasionally  keeps them looking ok.

you can start building lego now rob! [thumbsup]


Not a bad idea i could drag out my sons old lego collection .
But just polishing the exhaust pipes will keep me amused for hours [laugh]

Spider keep that 03 catalogue at the top of the pile in case i crack :-\

Hi Rob.

Excellent camera, just remember to keep your mouth closed when taking a photo......see reflection in headlight chrome ring.
Now if you didn't have a chrome headlight ring.............

Cheers and well done.

I know you mean well with your meetings and support groups, but I'm not sure I appreciate the purpose.
Do you actually intend to cure bling addiction (socalled) victims?


Title: Re: I declare mine finished!
Post by: mattyvas on January 23, 2010, 12:31:36 PM
Finding a cure could take some time indeed.
It's more about curbing the bling addiction in order for it to not take control of your life and bank account.


Then once it is under control the affected member can buy a BMW tourer.
Nothing to bling there.


Title: Re: I declare mine finished!
Post by: Spider on January 23, 2010, 12:34:52 PM
I see my role more in helping the 'victim' focus their attention on what they want to achieve and 'slowly' progressing.

It's safe to say that many victims have enjoyed my ability to help them with their bling addiction!

I'm not sure I follow....... is that possible?

Ok - I don't like where this is going. I'm NOT listening >:(

Is that what's called an enabler?

you are, maybe we could lobby the guvment together to abolish our taxes?

I'm pretty sure most pushers ... umm dealers ... ahh, I mean enablers don't pay tax on their income ... the government seems very accommodating.

Hey Stopintime

Bling anonymous in actually the reverse of what you think it is. :-X
And sponsored Buy spider and now ozducati pedaling there wares. ;)
They actually encourage bling,and are there to help you when the F word is mentioned.

And as Matty said it's more about curbing the addiction.
as not to turn into a Gollum like creature as in lord of the rings,
with his little precious ;)

New clock faces fitted. [thumbsup]

And i wouldn't recommend attempting this if you have a heart condition It could be fatal.   >:(

Only for the the very brave and skilled person as one slip could ruin the instrument cluster and no individual parts sold only complete
unit $$$$$ :o

And thanks to Dragon for a previous post on these clock faces.
and fittment.
