Cheers guys Carl it was all overspray, most of it brushed off!

Only trial and error mate. Cheers for the nice comments folks.

That brace is for a Mark 1 GT or UK spec Starlet. They don't have the threads on the car like the later GT/Glanzas do.

Welcome along mate

Looks like the bottom of a chav-Corsa bumper chopped off and stuck to the 98 spec. Or maybe the bottom of a Veilside kit.

Paint the other parts (bootlid, bonnet, bumpers) and fix her back together. Once that's done I'll get her MOT'd.

Paint update. I talked my mate's dad in to allowing me to use his garage to paint my car in, it's not a spray booth but it did the job nicely as I don't have much time left til I go to Uni so I had to settle for this. Struggling to get her on the recovery truck! Final preparation done and the car cleaned.. Paint complete, with lacquer..

Looks like someone tried to make their own JAM style kit

I have the same reg on mine and it used to be silver too!

15s are better to drive on but 16s look much better with a bodykit. I've got some 15s on mine, going to leave them on to see if they look good with the kit fitted otherwise I'll move to 16s.

Yeah it would work with that. Not a low temperature one, just a normal one. If you don't use a thermo it could harm your engine as the oil won't even warm up properly.

With a thermostat, yes.

Looking good Matt. When do you aim to have her up and running?

Looks good so far, tidy looking tow hook too.

Almost, got all the pearl on but I'll finish it tomorrow with the lacquer. I got tired with it today!

Good to see you again Gaz.

Yeah I went, and saw what all the 'hype' was about! As Asad said, also teachers how to control out desires and of course patience. I would never even think about going to Wimmy Road with my family on Eid day, maybe years ago but hell no in this day and age. Each to their own I suppose. I'll spend most of the day working on my car, no doubt. Have a good ones lads, whatever you do..

Khair Mubarak and Eid Mubarak to the rest of you. For the last 30 days those who have fasted (such as me and others on here) have not eaten from dawn to dusk, so that's from around 3-4am til 8-9pm. No food, water, chewing gum, toothpaste - nothing. Sounds pretty hard but it has gone better than expected. Only if I feel like seeing a set of twats who give us all a bad name, and use Eid as an excuse to get pissed and run around like chavs although Islam doesn't allow drinkin.. Set of jokers right there.

Cheers mate just wanted to double check.

PM'd

I don't think it was me either..

Yeah it has, I just can't drive it because it has no windows and isn't insured. Let it idle a few times but not going to do that again until I can drive it. I put 15w40 mineral oil.

Looks good mate, glad you aquired one

I've been advised, and found via some Google searches that Mineral oil is the best to use?
