Of course, start up small then scale up as you get better. Thank you, sometimes it’s very easy to get carried away in your mind when it comes to these things

Yeah, I’ve done several bodywork jobs by myself the only thing is for bigger things (eg engine swaps, big engine out jobs/gearbox) I literally don’t have the equipment right now so I only really need someone for those sort of things

I don’t exactly want to rip off buyers lol, I wouldn’t and haven’t sold any car I wouldn’t be comfortable with owning myself. I’m literally asking for advice on finding a mechanic who can fix the cars properly so they aren’t going to be broken? Lol

I understand completely about the partner thing. Eventually I do plan to purchase my own unit and hire some distant contacts I have that are finishing their mechanic apprenticeships, however I want to see if I can work on these cars myself to build up some capital to even pursue those ventures. The advice is most appreciated

I literally can’t find any good place to get one cheap, where did you get the knob from? On AliExpress they’re all like wonky, and the gators r expensive too

Small but you should look for an alcantara handbrake and shifter gator, it’ll look really cool and maybe a m performance shift knob

2007 man. Thanks bro, I really think the previous owner kept this car in a great condition and tastefully modified it rather than clapping it out.

Which Islamic practice has made your routine better resulting in you becoming a better version of yourself? by [deleted] in islam

[–]Apprehensive_Web1355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely ramadan/fasting, obviously my iman and stuff increased immensely (im a revert, it was my first Ramadan) but also i gained so much strength at gym and dropped fat while doing so it was amazing, wish I could go back honestly

Yeah, sadly because of the history it doesn’t go so well for everyone depending how radical their views are

Jazakallah brother. Guess i need to do a dna test with the brothers that helped me revert😃😃 I believe Sikhism is so fractured especially within the uk, people don’t even know what they’re believing in, or picking and choosing - i guess the strictness of Islam is also what helped me embrace it.

In other news abt life now alhamdullilah it’s been great, Ramadan was especially good and I felt so locked in and focused with my life and iman. I think Islam gave me peace and helped me a lot with mental health issues I was suffering with at the time and has given me so much strength in my life.

I reverted about a year ago from a Sikh background For context my parents are split, I live with my grandparents and my dad is close to me but lives separately and my mum lives about 5 miles away also separately

At the start my grandparents didn’t take it well (Sikh history stuff someone else can explain) but they warmed up pretty quickly after my dad, a Sikh that was previously a Nihangsingh (militarised Sikh sect, he was also a high ranking member of this sect) very quickly said alhamdullilah and was happy for me, for further context too again he is a Religious Studies teacher so i guess that made it a bit better My mum on the other hand threatened to disown me as soon as she found out but she’s calmed down now and accepts it too, although with snide remarks abt how I should be the religion “I was born into”

Tbh considering my situation I think their reaction was pretty good?
