Dylanfarrell Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Awesome build. Don't think I'd have the stones to sand a carbon bonnet lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza Mac Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 haha break it rich and ill seriously cry cheers mac, mine wasn't as good condition as yours unfortunately, carbon stands out so nice on your white V bet youcant wait for it to be running. Last update probably for a while, got a lot coming and a lot happening ;) but I couldn't leave its last picture on here with it covered in sanded lacquer feeling sorry for itself haha, so I gave it quick detail ready for the body shop Hopefully my next update will be a nice big one with lots happening fingers crossed, not long to go for japfest 2!It is nice but it is pretty much black on black.. Looks a hell of alot better now it's fresh lacquer and you have polished the dull parts off, yeah can't wait to have it back, only gotta wait until Saturday :-) Rob.

Dizzy Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 Another Update First things first, my windscreen bothered me, it looked tired/had some chips and everytime i cleaned my car it irritated me to see the windscreen haha :/ So I bought a new one and had it fitted Gutted about this going hahaLooks like no glass now Pleased lol.. (contain your excitement boys and girls, I know a new windscreen is ridiculously exciting!)The only thing letting it down was the scratches on the sides, and my scuffed rear OEM splitter. I also didnt realise how many dings the car had collected, werent even noticeable when I use to polish it, its mad lol. Starting to repair (to be honest, I haven't a clue what the process is, I'm just uploading the pics lol, I'm sure rich K will fill in anybody with questions ) Masked ready for paintingAnd painted looks so much better now ! Rich has said its getting flattened/polished next, will upload some more pics then, and some more parts fitting next weekend Quote Link to post Share on other sites
