Steve GT Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 if not white spirit, petrol or lighter fluid all work well and dont damage your paintwork dude Quote
wssoR Posted October 18, 2009 Author Posted October 18, 2009 when taking the bump strips off is it bets t just pry them off with a screwdriver or is there some sort of trick to it ?Cheers Quote
iamlegend Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 when taking the bump strips off is it bets t just pry them off with a screwdriver or is there some sort of trick to it ?Cheersno not a screw driver as it will damage your paint and scratch it off, use a plastic scraper and some auto glym worked a treat for me could also use a hairdryer to help take the strips off Quote
wssoR Posted October 18, 2009 Author Posted October 18, 2009 no not a screw driver as it will damage your paint and scratch it off, use a plastic scraper and some auto glym worked a treat for me could also use a hairdryer to help take the strips off what about an old credit card or something like that will that do ?

JAG Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Heat gun or hairdryer Then they should just flop/peel off Might need some kind of like adheasive remover to get the glue off but im not to clued up as i never did it myselfAlsoNow you've got a Starlet Medstone attendance at the next meet is compulsary!

wssoR Posted October 18, 2009 Author Posted October 18, 2009 kk how long should i heat em for just until they drop off or what Cheers Quote
JAG Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 As long as it takes mateThe glue should heat up enough so you can slowly and gently just peel them off Quote
Steve GT Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 no not a screw driver as it will damage your paint and scratch it off, use a plastic scraper and some auto glym worked a treat for me could also use a hairdryer to help take the strips off hairdryer will unstick the glue a treat dude then as said use a plastic scraper should just come straight off lol Quote
wssoR Posted October 20, 2009 Author Posted October 20, 2009 got the bump strips off and i have to say it looks a million times better,however when i hit about 75-80 my steering wheel wobbles, is this because the wheels need balancing Cheers Quote
JAG Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 All starlets do it a bit mate although it depends speed wise my V starts wobbling about 85ish but nothing majorlyIf its going mental then maybe get it checked n get your wheels balancedMy old SR used to be a bit crazy once it hit about 100 but i didn't used to drive it at that speed Id just creep up and nudge it then drop back down Also get some pics up mate ;) Quote
chanelle1234 Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 Yeah your wheels need balancing, i had this problem a few weeks ago when hitting the same kind of speed.chanelle x Quote
