RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 30-09-2013
So made good progress today. Got the wing off, finished undersealing the front arch:

Fitted a new door seal rubber as well, so hopefully will not have any more puddles in the footwell
Made a start on painting up the Baker gear linkages, and started stripping the '6 manifold ready for painting. Its all going this colour (not my parts below)

So go the bodywork on this fully PH3 converted now, with every panel in diablo. The wrapping is going on the back burner until I can do the whole car at once. Looks gash in multi colour.

The rear bumper and new 'zorst fit a lot better than before. The bumper has a few scuffs so will be getting re-sprayed at some point. Starting to get the love back for this car now
RE: Ell Diablo - sam - 11-10-2013
Looks spot on dude!
RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 11-10-2013
Aw cheers man. Its a far way off where I want it to be, but gives me something to look forwards to lol

RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 11-10-2013
I took it off as I was fed up of driving everywhere in a multi colours car and people looking at me like i couldn't afford to fix a crash damaged car properly. I will wrap it one day

RE: Ell Diablo - Dum-Dum - 11-10-2013
Liking the purple brakes geezer, I spy 307 rear calipers, have you test fitted them yet? was I right about fitting or being very close to fitting?
RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 12-10-2013
Dum dum you muppet! Read the post properly! Lol. They're not my parts, it was just a picture to show the colour
RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 13-10-2013
So bit of a boring update:
When i got the replacement tailgate, whoever removed it decided it would be wise to chop the loom, so instead of trying to thread a new one in, I'm gonna run a +'ve and -'ve to the heated screen. I have no wiper so thats no issue. And for the rear brake light, i thought I'd try something different. Hopefully people would see it a bit better:
A bent ally bar with some mounting holes drilled.
![[Image: image_zps9dea27a7.jpg]](http://s1117.photobucket.com/user/grant-306/media/image_zps9dea27a7.jpg.html)
And some strip LED's
![[Image: image_zpsf9ac509e.jpg]](http://s1117.photobucket.com/user/grant-306/media/image_zpsf9ac509e.jpg.html)
Aaaaaaand thats as far as I got before i had a beer and got stuck tot eh sofa.... lol
RE: Ell Diablo - WiNgNuTz - 13-10-2013
Different, hope they'll be bright enough, i did something similar on my 1.4, they were dismally dull in the daylight. They were alright at night though.
RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 13-10-2013
I'll still have the two brake lights in the rear clusters, this is just for the high level.
But yes, i hope they are too lol
RE: Ell Diablo - WiNgNuTz - 13-10-2013
Fair point, i also still had the original high level light in place. I just had some red LED strips going spare, so wired them in with the brakes!
RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 13-10-2013
Haha fair.
I also had a mad moment and nearly ordered a rain light
![[Image: o6xp34.jpg]](http://i54.tinypic.com/o6xp34.jpg)
Then realised how stupid that would be lol
RE: Ell Diablo - WiNgNuTz - 13-10-2013
Sorry, a rain light?! What is the purpose of that? Or is that a stupid question?
RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 13-10-2013
So other cars can see you through the spray in the rain. But then i realised i am not a race driver haha
RE: Ell Diablo - WiNgNuTz - 13-10-2013
I see. Yeah, thats kinda pointless, although im sure you can adapt it to make it useful somehow. Maybe.
RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 14-10-2013
So, got a bit carried away with the candy purple paint tonight haha
Shitty phone pic sorry

Plan is to get the subframe off and get that painted up soon. For whatever mad reason, i have forgotten! lol
RE: Ell Diablo - vlj - 14-10-2013
Such an awesome colour, really does look good!
Ell Diablo - devils_fuel - 14-10-2013
I love the black bonnet and diablo look...so becausei'maracecar. but then again would it be rude to say it would look better all diablo?
RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 14-10-2013
Its up to you what you say dude lol
TBH I'm not a massive fan of the black bonnet. I need to do something with the roof to hide the lacquer peel though
so may have to be doing that the same
Ell Diablo - devils_fuel - 15-10-2013
Some people get up set with other peoples views
Black roof and bonnet like you say might be a winner as it will break up the diablo or just black roof and diablo bonnet?
RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 16-10-2013
Nah mate, I dish enough shite out, so a bit back my way is fine
I fully appreciate my car won't be to everyones taste. It's taken me a while to get the love for this car haha
RE: Ell Diablo - Piggy - 16-10-2013
rain light??!
so your fog lights wouldnt be good enough!?
RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 16-10-2013
The idea of a rain light is it's low down, below the level of the majority of the spray, opposed to where the fog light is.
But... As I said...

RE: Ell Diablo - 306Dan - 17-10-2013
Loving the candy purple really sets it off, any more purple going on?
RE: Ell Diablo - Grant - 17-10-2013
Haha cheers. Planning on doing the subframe purple too. Thats it really for the underside then
