also while in the loft (and as daveep would tell u, aka my garage lol) i dug out a minted scuttle panel off the 43k mile silver SR i broke back in 2009,showered the 4year old dust off it ready to be fitted!mine has been poorly resprayed by the last owner and looks shite!



also rubbed down spare wiper arms ready for some fresh black paint and the skirts, im happy to say have finally seen primer!!!

right then, scuttle panel changed and got a couple of other things done.



1st il say that i tried charlies ecu and that is NOT the problem, i now believe it is the inlet mani's gasket! buyin a new 1 shortly and hopefully a fresh 1 will stop the idle problem!



i thought the standard glanza lenses looked a little bright so i done what i done to the old SR......took the lenses off and sprayed the light housing to darken them down a tad! looks better!

then after seeing theres a fuckin crack in it from a shitty mouldin,im gona have to fibre gash it to repair before sprayin.....BUT,regardless, i trial fitted it anyway because im a mental bastard. opinions please......REMEMBER,there r spats goin on aswell so this is NOT the final look :thumbsup:
