dont do it on public roads though if you can avoid it. if something goes wrong there is no reason why someone else should be involved aswell remember ________________________________________ There are currently 1 people onlineMost ever was 173 on Sunday 9th Nov 2008 at 8:04pm Registered Users: chris167 |

lol seriously? just take the bag out give it a good clean with some brake cleaner and then take it out for a drive. You dont even need to drive hard, they will still get hot enough to melt plastic. just get to 80 on a motorway and pull off at a slip road and use the brakes to slow down to 20 or so. high speed will get them heated more than enough. ________________________________________ 309 GTi6-T |
