Rob_Mitchell Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 Yeah I think you'd come back and anything that can be undone by hand will be gone! Yeah thats what i fear will happen, too much money under my bonnet now to take any risks... i usually only go to talk to mark newman, have a slash, or grab a beer/hotdog. Then im back cleaning the car again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westy Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I definately wont be walking off at shows with the bonnet open like i usually do this year I never leave my bonnet open at shows unless I'm in sight of the car...too easy for some idiot to steal a rad cap or oil cap and then your stuffed as no one usually carries spares! Ross C lost his oil cap at a show last year and had to drive home with a bit of cardboard taped over the hole!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Mitchell Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 Just finished the bonnet stay rod and the brake servo pipe. By far the hardest items to plate, wasted a fair bit of solution doing them. Definately need some more solution for other items i need to do.

Parry_10 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Don't go to OTT with the gold mate you need some stuff left chrome/polished to break it up, I rekon the rad pipe would look better as it is but ill wait to see if you prove me wrong lol:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
