rob_sri Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 Thanks got some awesome plans for the rusty old bootlid! Gotta save up probably get it sorted next month. Can't wait to get my dash bits back too, they were a bit scummy before and have gone away for some paint - think that will make a big difference to the interior! Polished up the plastic clocks with some of this stuff... Gotta say its really good! They were a bit scratched and had something splattered over them before... Would of got before pics but my phone died Still.. After.. Carpet is coming out today which should be good even if its just for a clean as its pretty bad but I am going to be having a go at dying it too whilst its out.. See how much mess I can create before I get kicked out my own house! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob_sri Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 Yeah there are loads of things to do and It's all about the little things really Stripped... The before: Carpets were as expected.. filthy... Sprayed up with copious amounts of carpet cleaner.. Bit of washing with the old jet wash..!

rob_sri Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 Quick 50/50 And a good brush inbetween blasting!! Seems to of come up well so far.. Bring on the dye! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra Gaz Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 When I dyed my carpet I did several rounds, clean then dry, dye, dry then due again. It came out nice and deep and has help up well. It was a pain in the ass mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_sri Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 Yeah I followed your advice with that one and did just that.. Got the marigolds out!! Cleaned it a few times let it dry then done 3 coats of dye letting it dry inbetween rounds and I'm really happy with the outcome.. I need to order myself some new floormats now to keep with the new look! Will refit tomorrow and then I should have my dash panels back soon painted in my favourite paint code Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob_sri Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 Sometimes it's better that way to build it yourself and you know what's been done..! I'm just assuming everything is shit unless otherwise inspected & replaced lol! Small update: New plates :) Dash panels finished in Renault sport black gold - little tribute to my old car and my favourite paint code..!

supra_ufo Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 nice colour choice on the dash mate. I am going to tear my wrap off and spray them instead. Are those plates illegal? They do look good ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob_sri Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 Cheers can't wait to get it all fitted in tonight nice colour choice on the dash mate. I am going to tear my wrap off and spray them instead. Are those plates illegal? They do look good ;-) Errrrrmmmmmmm..... *hides* Maybe.. Who's asking..? They aren't legal plates as such.. Legal font, size, construction, spacing, reflective backing, bsau codes are there etc just doesn't have the plate makers postcode on them..
