I remember reading through some of your previous posts where you seemed unhappy with it I would love to have the skills/space/ability to paint my own as the 19 year old black Japanese paint really is past its best now.

Mk4Gaz Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 This is the thread I was looking for! Mine has been treated to some tlc so far, still more to go though. Ive given the UK spec brakes an overhaul, with new pads and discs all round, along with a lick of paint and some fresh decals And given the engine bay a much needed overhaul. So far I've done the drivers side, with a fair bit of polishing and a bay respray in satin black. Along with some carbon accents I'd previously painted the turbo pipes, and used red silicone, but it looked crap Next on the list is to polish the cam covers, inlet mani and throttle body. Replace the vacuum hoses with black silicone, spray the passenger side bay in satin black, fit my new rad, cambelt and water pump, coolant flush and refill, oil service, and fit my oil temp sender. Also managed to finally get my boot popper fitted today, so I can pop the boot with the alarm fob. A small thing, but makes a difference The rest should keep me busy for a while lol, ready for next spring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the way forward Stainless won't rust, and they look much better than the crappy stock pins. And dead cheap too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest balloo Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 i treated mine to a long drive up the M4 to see parents she was happy and satisfied at the end of it. Albeit, she treated me to a £40 receipt for fuel as my present :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morpheus Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 (edited) Nice one man. Make sure to get some pics up when they're on. I was thinking of these if I couldn't find any LMs. Probably in 18s, though. How about some used but nice 19" split rim, deep dish Volk Rays? Check these out; http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=131078669381 Note that tyres are not included. I stumbled across them whilst looking for mine.
