Rob_Mitchell Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Well i thought i would do a update on the bodywork were doing on his car. removed the side repeaters and offside headlight and number plate as were going to repaint the bumper, due to some damage on the side part. the repair is not too drastic on the door and wing, ill post more pics up later when we actually start working more on it... having a cuppa now .

marcAB10 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 are you going to smooth off the side repeater and fit facelift ones on the front bumper while your at it? may be worth it if your spraying those parts anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted May 4, 2010 Author Share Posted May 4, 2010 are you going to smooth off the side repeater and fit facelift ones on the front bumper while your at it? may be worth it if your spraying those parts anyway. were only doing the one side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 were only doing the one side That might look a bit odd! Would be worth doing both sides. I might have to come see you to give my skirts a respray...can notice some cracks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 (edited) I am having some damage repaired from some idiot that hit my car and drove off http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=215421 I am quite happy to keep the side repeaters for now If i were to get rid of them then i would be looking to do it by replacing both wings with the facelift version rather then fill the holes where the repeaters used to be.

Been thinking so much of WIM! Not sure my car will be ready by then, even if it is I am at a party until the early hours of the morning. I'd love to come along to the meet but I told my good old friend I'd be coming along almost 2 months ago (not noticing it is the first Friday of the month!). *Sorry to go off topic Richard* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah mate, they have been repainted including the dish, After the first winter I had the car I had some of the laqure lifted on the dish and it went milky I then had them refurbished and had the dish bare metal polished but to be honest i could not keep up with keeping the metal polished, so decided to get the whole wheel done in Platinum Silver, i feel its a good compromise.
