Nice job, Get some on the car pics !

yeah its a small fan. Do a search for buzzing, and theres loads of threads about it including how to fix and the info you want. I got tired of the buzzing and just unplugged it completly. Dont have the aircon on much so i dont know if it effects it or anything.

All sorted now, I s**t myself for a minuite.

Nah, sorry im going to keep them incase i want to put the car back to standard.

Ive just swapped my door handles over for the sprayed ones and i was happy as they work. But after i blip the central locking close and unlocked. The drivers side door has a dull click instead of the usual unlocking sound, and the handle does not open the door. but after i open it from the...

No, i left them together, Started using 800 grit but the grit seemed to come off the paper to easily, so moved to 120 and it did the job. Also in between wetsanding its a pain in the @ss to get the little drops of water from inbetween the handle.

Lol, i did think of that. But it was very sunny today so let nature work its magic. Dont think ill be able to fit the strips in the oven if i did them.

Yeah, Ill do the wetsanding in a few days :) with 3000 grit. Just was abit scared seeing as i only clear coated yesterday. Should have waited a few more days for them to dry but there on now. Yeah side strips next :)

Got a pair of 2nd hand exterior handles and had a go at colour coding them. Took a while to prep and get ready for primering and painting, but the final outcome is worth it i think. The handles have a slight orange peel look in the pics where ive oversprayed abit too much. I learnt a lot...

Ok, cheers people. Yeah the base coat of paint is ok, but ive got a bit of overspray and just wanted to flaten it. I will use 3000. Thanks.

Im painting my door handles to match the body work. Ive primered and painted.. All well so far. But i want to know, Can i wet sand flat the paint and lacquer over it after? What i mean is will the laquer cover up the dullness of the wet sanded flat paint? and give it the glossy look again...

lol brilliant.

Because then it would look like something that belongs in a car .. not in your room :S

DIY SOS. Would have looked much better carpeted, not from your living room though.

I would say a heavy dilution of interior shampoo to water in a spray bottle. Then scrub and you will need a wet vac to get the excess crap and water out.

I got the phone through the post the other day even though we didnt ask fot it :S I have the first white one. Do you have to pay for the new version?

Nice pics, Especially the last one.. a lot of mood to it.

Looks pretty good. Cant even get mine open! Whats the finish like? Did you laquer it?

I like it, Think it would look better in black and flush with the headlight plastic? Still good work though.

Yeah, but if someone else had a black renault clio or a car that matches the numberpalte of the car, They could nick it and clone the car. Or nick anyones numberplates and go throught a few speed cameras for a laugh.

Cool, I wanted that stealth look. But im glad i settled on anti theft screws. Especially after watching last nights cops and cameras program on BBC 1.

Think the anthracite looks well smart. Im with direct line. They are abit strict. The things i want to do mean i will need to change insurers. Cant wait till i do, but stuck atm.

Lookin good ! What did you stick the plate on with? Not a fan of the bra really lol. Saves on chips i guess.

1) split the clay into two parts if too big, store the other in a zip seal bag or something. 2) dont use any pressure, just light movement and keep it moving. 3) if the clay isnt contaminated with heavy dirt it can be used again. 4) i use a zip seal sandwich bag. Also warm water in a bowl will...

Looks good mate, Not really sure about the yellow details, but looks ok. I would get some tyre gel on those wheels, AG bumper care on the exterior plastics. Carpet floor mats for the interior really look much better. Looks like youve colour coded the side strips, Maybe do the handles as well?

I like it, Think its quite nicely done. Wheels looks abit like they should belong on a 4x4 IMO. Still look good though.

I think a normal clio with flip paint would look pretty cool if done correctly. However this ones a little "too much happening" for my liking.

Oh, and make sure at the bottom of the file choosing screen you tick always use this program.

Try: click on a file with the msn logo. Right click > open with > Itunes (or whatever you normally use to play music)
