Beastmode panda Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Little trick for you mate (and everyone else reading this who has nice lug nutz)... Get a sandwhich bag and just cover the wheel nut with the bag and put the socket in it, so the bag is covering the lug nut.. Meaning, no scratches! . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spoon_tuned Posted December 15, 2012 Author Share Posted December 15, 2012 Update ****************Finally managed to get my wheels on today they really could do with getting powder coated again but still will look decent with a good clean. after jacking the car up i got to have a good look under the car checking out the solid bushes on the wishbones and anti roll bar bushes , also inspecting the meister r's which look in real good condition just really need them setting up. I think on the list next will be the cv joints and maybe some braided brake lines plus i think i will need a new feed from the turbo as it looks like its gunna be in the way of putting on an air filter so many things i wanna do to this car to get it how i want it but this horrible weather and darker days really don't help..I only got a few pictures today car needs a wax & polish but as i say weather is poop enjoy!

Broony Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Looking good mate I love 1A0 glanzas!! I'd change those alloy wheel nuts to steel (if they are ally) as they will stretch and come loose easily . But it's looking good! What's next? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beastmode panda Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 looks sooooooooooo much better!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smobey_sutton2 Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Looks so much better dude! Wheel nuts look good also but bare in mind if they are ally then check for tightness everyday! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
