j_jza80 Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 OCD I would have probably just used some rust treatment hammerite on the bar though. It seems like a shame to hide those stainless bits away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like a shame to hide those stainless bits away. I know they are all so shiny haha The front ARB was fine but the rear being more open to the elements had a bit of flaking so I just had both bars done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattP Posted February 9, 2015 Author Share Posted February 9, 2015 Turn around point today I started reassembling things.. I spent hours cleaning 17-18 years worth of dust from behind and around the dash including all the air pipes then fitted the carbon bits and got the dash back in. And of ofcourse fitted the black painted dash bar, much better than rust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
