Ok so todays work, iv primered under rear quater as bumper was catching




Then a bit of paint



I cleaned up the crash bar



Its still a little rusty but ive put krust on it and zinc primer and then tough black paint so should last a bit longer.

Then i dug out the delock handles


Having a nightmare with one though the paint just wont stick so needs flatting back to primer!

Then last on list was front crash bar


Will get a better pic in day light!

Then ive whipped these parts off, not sure what to do with them yet

Got my vents in the boot!!

Tidy stereo set-up there.

I'd get the plastics done gloss black to go with the wheels if it was me.


Cheers,

im not sure if gloss is the way to go, i know it would tie in the rest of the car but im not sure if it would look cheap? probably need to see if i can find anyone with it done already!

Updates time, firstly its in one piece for first time in month, had to jumpstart it but after that the battery was actually sound even though its been practically flat for months! Had a bit of paint done as too many FRS round my way at minute with satin rear diffuser




Think badge is on piss a bit






Ive even glossed the rear wiper, not done the front ones. So what do you all reckon? I need to do something with the B pillers RS logos any ideas?

Looks well nice m8! It would look better with tinted windows to match the black bits and smoked lights tho.

Yeah id like to tint the windows but the battery has just boiled itself in the car so i need a new battery and possibly a resistor on the alternator.
