Thanks Phil, I hope i spawn a whole new series of DIY 'Rollers' LOL

See the over flow? ;) The rubber seals will cover these marks. I still haven't sanded her down with the 1200 wet/dry. I bought the cheapest wax i could find - so i'll give it a go on friday/saturday. Go forth WOK Star! ....I heard Dan wanted his car hot pink LOL! The gap isn't that much...it's just that the other pics are 'drive way spec'. I waxed the bonnet. Gave it a red hot go...is there a difference? (to be honest, i don't really ) However i used some Elcheapo window cleaner. Awesome - Newspaper and the spray. Awesome. Little details = POV camera phone The wing mirrors look alright, considering I sprayed some clear coat on it I cleaned up the edges by just sanding around them...using a block of sand paper. - surprising results

Haha, thanks for the comments boys. I don't need her to be lowered as yet. She just needs to be 'sleeper styles' I need it that height for my drive way. Will take better pics after Starletto Cruise on Saturday

Hellow UK Starlet ppls! Here is an update: I changed manufacturer for paint, becuase they didn't have it at Big W. So I went with Watyl Rust KILL - Very nice. It comes on quite glossy. I diluted it with some turps and used it with a half decent foam roller. See what happens after you've done a fresh coat of paint. FFS!!! Frikki'n die somewhere else ya stupid insects!! THe new paint manufacturer. Tools required. And a half decent foam brush ($6!! WTF?) DIY Spray BOOTH Packaging Box. Cut half of the top and angle the sides for venting. Resprayed the mirrors. Much nicer finish. I now know how to cover the mirrors properly HAHA . Bright as! Note: If you CBF wrapping the mirrors up ...you could always use a plastic bag! I should of used the left over packaging box, broke it down, and then used it as a cover for car instead of always preping with newspaper etc.etc.

Coilovers installed (veyr little change in ride height....but stifness is crazy) See the colour coded mirrors Before.. After.. Here is a picture of the roof - sorry about the bad quality - she needs a good sanding and a few more coats.

Obviously, if your EP82/91 is looking spick and spam, there is really no need to DIY cheapo paint. But if your looking to colour code, or just paint up some bits and pieces - you can do this with under $50: http://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/showfl...part=1&vc=1 Only the 1st page is worth the time, the rest are tire kicker comments: Summary: - Rust paint diluted with Mineral turps for milky texture - Apply thin coats (+7) - Allow a month to 'cure' - Purchase El cheapo turtle wax - Cut and polish like crazy, building up protective layer Rustoluem SPRAY Canned 01 bug eyed Rex: (in drive way) http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1452874 *sorry for massive pic* Other links: http://www.instructables.com/id/Paint-Your...With-Rustoleum/ I've noticed that someone has vinyled an EP91 roof, but how many have painted the car themselves? Here is my work in progress. Wing mirrors and wheels to go.
