Default Help!!! RSi bits and info needed....

Evening all,

Just got an awesome quote for my wagon to get the body work sorted out along with a new coat of paint I just need I few bits to do the job properly, I would like to buy:-

- A new rear wing (probably dreaming without winning the lottery but hey!), I have heard that Mr Fuller has one of these beasties?

- Some stripes, realistically originals would be dead crusty by now so who do people think are the best after market copies?

-Some original unetched brown tinted (the standard RSi colour) opening rear quarters?

Any help would be cool!

that loctite stuff has'nt done on mine - you can see the glue round the edges - not eaten away at no paint - still perfect.

we use it at work alot - on everything,so its perfect

Yeah cool ah, moths flew out when I first opened the wallet! you better watch out Mark, the body work isn't the only thing in the pipeline! I've still got the S2, no one wants it! So what the hell, I will use it for work. Hopefully by the later half of next year I will have the cash to get engine sorted, like big style hopefully!! Quick enough hopefully to push your grey mota along

RS1600ireg, if you do have a set you want rid of please let me know, cheers

So come on peeps, at the rolling road day there was at least 4/5 cars that had new paint, so come on, spill the beans where did you buy the stickers from, as the all looked original Cheers
