More updates to come hopefully today

Don't use t-cut mate! It's too savage. You need a machine polisher, you could have the whole car done in a few hours and have the paint looking like glass!

I picked one up today.. But the guy at the shop said to use T cut with it

This is the result of T cut and a few polishes..

Bonnet is finally done now and theres a huge diffrence is the paint work.. You can see how dif the paint looks now as i took a better pic

Also tried on the wheels to check for rubbing and how the cars going to sit..

I like how the front sits but I think the back is a tad to high?

Also dropped the 500 bumper off at the body shop.. will be done by mid week next week

carlo · 30-07-2009, 11:07 AM

Im fitting a airbox mate and as the Tarcal breather system has the aero quip fittings on the front the airbox wont fit

Haha Kev you have to admit it looks good tho

Even the old man was asking what the fuck is taking me so long ROFL

Kevin Sharp · 31-07-2009, 03:40 PM

i cant see anything....no pics

i know how good it looks when its clean though

i hate to tell you this but if your fitting a standard airbox that breather aint going to fit either
