rob_bower Posted November 9, 2010 Author Share Posted November 9, 2010 Right then just a small update!It's that time again to get the rays all wrapped up! I've also been meaning to re-paint the arches for a while as there was a small patch in each front arch where the paint had rubbed off with the wheels on full lock so seen as I've got a couple of days off I decided to attack it!I started by getting the car jacked up nice and high and removed all the wheels the removed the inner arches at the front and the guards at the back the jet washing each arch thouroghly the removed any rust then painted with silver hammerite! So far I've done both rear arches will get the fronts done tomorrow and a few bits underneath! Then I'll get the soeedys back on fir winter motoring!BeforeAfterWhile I was at it I've removed the rear arb to go away to be powder coated!Rob Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rob_bower Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 Right just had a quick trial fit of the cage! Looks like the c pillar bar may need adjusting or removing! But I'll cross that bridge when the actual fitting comes! Its very close to the roof to I expected more of a gap with it being for a gt! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
