Not yet, the pipe is only about 3 years old and still in good condition.
Although the silicon ones are nice and blue
Considering a larger intercooler though.....
Allisport have a couple of nice products. Will look around locally and see what else is available

Thanks
Been thinking about the tint, with the objective being to hide whatever's in the boot from prying scroaty eyes. Not sure about the 2nd row though.
I am also looking for a solid cover for the boot, something like what's in the FFRR. I reckon I could make something fairly impenetrable if it hasn't already been done

Still want to see what you do for DRL.
I bought a set of Phillips DRL (not OEM) and are still undecided.
I installed "bee sting" 1/4 wave VHF antenna on the boot-lid,
I like the wheels.... Proud owner of an IIDTool

yes the DRL's are bothering me. Haven't figured out what to do yet. I need to spend a couple hours in a deck-chair staring at the front of the vehicle.
I still haven't decided what to do with the headlights in general. Want to remove the orange but perhaps also mask the silver bits cos thats the last of the bright stuff on the whole car
got a bunch of 55W HID's on the way, for the main beam, dipped beam and fog lights, maybe after that I will use the fog lights as DRL. lets see

Blue silicone intercooler pipes fitted
And a new alternator. Did it myself. Not a big job actually.
The HID's arrive tomorrow. Yes, 6 x 55W. That should be interesting.....
