Sparky Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Welcome mate. Looking nice and clean.Engine bay looks spotless ! Just a quick one here. Does the rear toyota badge (beside the rear wiper) have spurs on the back or is it just stuck on? If i removed it would it have holes begind it? <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Im sure mine has the spurs so there will be two holes if i remove it soooo it must be the same for ursNot hard to sort out though i doubt Quote

miracle411 Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 Awesome looking machine buddy, done some great work on it there. Quote
Jozinobi Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 Defo an impressive bay there mate Care to share some polishing/cleaning tips?Car looking well overall mate, good to see some individuality!Peace OutJoz Quote
keirz Posted August 5, 2006 Author Posted August 5, 2006 the engine took a while, it was mainly cleaned with a wire brush to remove the grime and rust, and then its been sprayed with a thin coat of heat proof paint to finish it off. i then use some scratch remover to shine the crome and stainless steal on the pipe and strut brace. this brings it up a treat. Its one of them jobs you regret starting but the end result is pretty nice. cheers. Quote
Raffi Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 Nice car...And VERY nice engine bay...What brand/model and size are your wheels?And how much is it lowered, with what springs/suspension? Quote
