As JD said no need for anything more corse than 2000 grit.
My lights were pretty shoddy and I didn't use anything other than 2000 and a bit if polish.

Could be the fuel rail guard as you suggest. Iirc some people ha issues with the bolts sheering / falling out.
Get a socket on it and take it off for a look, only a 2 min job.
Did the same in my car the other day 2 rips in my Bimarco buckets and no one seems to know where to get material from to fix, gutted :(
A local automotive retrimmer should be able to repair a standard seat pretty easily.
Cheers mate, got a mates car to do in the next few weeks, worst lights I have seen on his, so should be a bit of a challenge!
Proof above though, nothing more course than 2000 grit needed!
TBH if someone offered me a Mk2 Mex / RS2k or Harrier for a good price I wouldn't say no, they just don't give me an Automotive hardon like the Mk1's ;)
My 1st Car was a MK4 two door, loved it, should have taken more care of it and kept it in the garage for a rainy day lol
My mate had a MSA log booked 1100 shell with 2.0 pinto on 48's, cage and retro bucket seats, paid £6000 for it ran it for 6 months and sold it for £50 shy of £8000 within 2 hours of advertising! Chap flew over same day from IOM and drove it back.
Sod ISA's and high interest bank accounts, old...
Quick tip for anyone thinking of having a go at this.
Don't leave the wet sanding residue on the car for to long, I left it over night and the fine particles of plastic set like stone on the bodywork and needed a good polish to remove it.
