Is that an AS spreadsheet?

Red please.

Another red ROVER day
So the METRO  has dropped and the SUSPENSION needs regassing
The other wing rusted away
Taking all the cash and leaving you with the lumber
Got what a pain in the ass
red on the bump stripe is what you need for class

Red please.

Yes, we can’t afford excel as it costs 12 billion pounds apparently... 

[danthecapriman]

Normally I’d say chrome, and if the car was a darker colour I’d say chrome.

But, the red looks good on this so I’ll go with red! Almost a GTI look!

[DoctorRetro]

Well, I'm going to do it with red tape all round and take some pictures before I decide on a permanent solution. 

 

[AndyW201]

The right decision. Only the coolest kids fit coloured bumper stripes to Rover Metros!

It's not on the Metro.... 

 

The Metro is getting a full respray in Halloween Orange!

Gah! Still, red it is!

Looking forward to seeing the Metro also.

What kind of buffoon puts yellow stripes on a blue car?

Oh yeah...

I love that.

Because I love these.

[DoctorRetro]

Anyone for swimming? Or fishing? 

 

[bunglebus]

I hate water leaks. My passenger football is decidedly moist and I haven't worked out how it's getting in. Pissing rain is not ideal weather for diagnosing it either

Question. 

Where in this engine bay would be best to put the 'sports' air filter for the most cold air? Down near the front bumper I presume? I realise where it is now is probably terrible. 

 

[Cookiesouwest]

Yep, as far from the block as you can get it, or put a shield between block and filter and rig a cold air feed, if you have room

[Cord Fourteener]

When you tubers have scienced cold air intakes and cone/pod filters they find their is no noticeable gain in power, or none that shows more of a change than error in the results. Certainly not noticeable.

Put your intake wherever you like and enjoy the sound.

[Cord Fourteener]

I have to say, your engines look immaculate, don't know if that's the camera doing the tidying or whether you clean and polish under the bonnet...

As @Tim_E said - the gains will be minimal either way so I wouldn't worry too much about it. Down near the front bumper is a good idea - but just make sure you don't go through any big puddles....

I've heard that diesels don't like the air too warm.

I clean then as much as possible and wipe over with bumper gel. I find a clean engine easier to work on. 

[DoctorRetro]

Red stripe (prototype) on. 

I'm not convinced. 

 

[privatewire]

That looks class!

[bunglebus]

Looks good to me. Red = +10BHP

[Matty]

Got to say your doing a really nice job of this

[Cookiesouwest]

That looks good

[loserone]

Bit too bright.  Darker shade would work well

[Macscrooge]

Red stripes make it faster. Any fule kno that.

I prefer the Chrome look, but if you want mad it's there!

[spartacus]

Hmm, I think it looks like it's trying too hard, chrome would be my choice.

[Soundwave]

Neon green. Just because.
