It did move pretty quick but has slowed abit now, due to weather and no money lol.
Hopefully in the new year I'll be able to sort all this painting out lol

Looking good mate

I wouldn't go with a massive stretched tyre the wall is made so weak with a stretch, i had 8x18s with 205/35/18 and that bulged the side wall after less than 1k

If he had it down behind the rad, then if his has the same top hose as mine then I suffered from horrendous heat soak!

And lots of potential to suck up some water... Especially in this weather, I wouldn't have left it where it was and Matt thought it best to be safe so we moved it.

Yeah was moved as it was so wet. It will go back in the summer with a cold air feed

looking good there! got me thinking about angel eyes again for my 306, i had a set for the phase1. but one of the LEDs died and it was a right sod to get a replacement, which put me off getting after market lights again.

Oh yeah that was a reason why mine was moved. Drove it through a few puddles and the bottom of the filter was getting damp :o

Btw Matt loving the new colour scheme!

Paint is for gays. It goes all crusty with paint. I used suede material and some proper retrimming glue.

along with black lining you need phase3 cabriolet visors

Tongue already got cabby visors in there Smile may retrim it now. Going too look at material

Also going to spray my inlet. But worked out it will take me 4 days to paint the way I want, with removal, cleaning, painting and refitting. So going to see if anyone near me has a crappy inlet that they wanna swap for my silver one, I'll get the spare done, then stick it on. That way car will only be off the road for like a few hours while I do the swap

Car looks great! Lensos suit it down to a t... I want to do my headlining black to but i think it will be too tricky with my sunroof

Sunroof should be fine, if your painting it should be okay, but if trimming it will be a little difficult but do able.

Love my lensos refurbing them at the moment Smile

But basically, key with sandpaper, skim with P40 to just below where you want the finished surface (don't put too much on as its a bastard to sand back again) and then skim over that with P38 filler and sand back to a nice smooth finish.......... Smile
