JAG Posted April 29, 2008 Author Share Posted April 29, 2008 Some really nice plans Mr JAG. Coming along very nicely. Will all this be done by Medstone II?JoeHopefully it will be sorted or at least most of it but the sprayings dependant on the weather ;) Hope u enjoyd the revfest the guy in tesco was lookin over in my direction a bit unimpressed altho i was hidden behind a big van so i only know as Danny boy told me bout himIf u get the beast back 2mz gimme a ring n let me know white is a bad cover for a cam cover. dirt will love it. paint it a dirt masking colourGood point might buy myself some black then spray the cam cover with that n do the liney bits n toyota etc in blue Make it look a lil stylish were did you get your rear lenses from mate?rekon they ll be ok to fit on the n/athats what he's gna do they can be modded to fit ie cut the cluster to accomodate or get the whole cluster then simple fitThink im gna go with modding the cluster dont wana rinse more money buying the whole clusterDIY all the way I see here again tonight down the odeon! looking vbery smart i must say, ive got white hammerite and primer sitting in my garage waiting to do my alloys... any tips?pm me if possibleTips ehhhWrap the tire in newspaper n use maskin tape to mask off as far down where the tire and the alloy meet as pos then when the whole tires maked up get urself some wet/dry sand paper dip it in water n take the top layer of paint off should make the water go milkey white kinda then spray the wheel with your hammermite (dont need to bother with primer as its superpaint ) n spray like 30cms away from the wheel givin it a light coat then leave it to dry for like 10 mins then go back n do it again and again until the wheel looks white More coats lightly is better than less coats thick as it will run n bodge up your paint jobThats the best advice i can give Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JAG Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 Cheer ladi's much appreciate the feed back etc ;) It just looks so much smarter than the dodgey red n white fog n reverse Hate the unsimetricalness... if that makes sence White speedies all the way!Just need some good wether n a day when both me n my dad are off as hes gna help me put it on like struts so can have all the wheels off at once n do wheelies + calipers n bolts in 1 go as i have no idea how to get the car off the floor other than using a jack....So just gota wait for the nice wether @ Liam_DFittings not overly hard the worst part is getting the old lenses off the cluster ;) I snapped the bottom off one of the old lenses getting it off but its an old one so doesnt matter Then its a case of cut a couple small holes in the bottom of the cluster to allow lil pin like parts to hold the lens in place 2 screw holes line up ok so just put them in as normal Thers 3 that dont line up the top n bottom ones u have to make small holes in the cluster just like using a drill n soldering iron n then get a screw the same width but a bit longer n a washer to hold it in place (i got rubber washers on mine) Then the central screw hole on one side is to far in so i just left that 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
