    182 front wiper mechanism failed a second time

    The only thing I've ever had fail is the small circlips holding the splined drive part up, they are identical on all mk2 uk clios iirc

    K-tec catback fitted, Gearbox Oil done and full service on my mates FN2 Type R.

    Not a fan of most alfas but a GTV was always on my want list- such good lines and that slash through the door over the rear arch! 😘

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Picked up one of my turinis and taken another back to where powdercoated them, poor finish and the second had cracks in the finish. Still not perfect but I cant be bothered any more.

    I think it may be for cars with satnav?

    Rust

    That's a nice Bilt Hamber collection. Check where the rear beam mounts to the shell as well, mine has bubbled a bit there

    Front end respray

    Father Ted springs to mind! While we're on the subject, mine being flame red has faded, or matured as I like to call it, I've DA'd it and sealed but is there anything else I can do to bring some colour back? Will some waxes help with colour, I tried purple haze as I had it to hand

    Front end respray

    I think I've avoided taking too many of the front end Haha! The bumper is fairly chipped and faded more than other panels, the bonnet I replaced as the old one was shocking, this ones still rippled so I'd look for a straight one before a respray.

    Looks like your front caliper carriers are on upside down. Liking the refurbed calipers!

    Front end respray

    I think my front end would look better if done with poster paints as it is currently.

    Front end respray

    I think retraining when I have a house to pay for would be difficult

    Front end respray

    No worries it's all interesting stuff. If I could career change I'd quite like to try spraying/bodywork
  22. DomP182

    Front end respray

    I think it's going to have to happen for me to be happy with it, the bumper probably needs some filling of stone chips but the bonnet I will replace for a straight one first
  23. DomP182

    Front end respray

    Stupid question but would they spray the bonnet fitted? I presume the bumper would need removing though

    Front end respray

    Yeah I'm just being lazy, good excuse to take a day off work though to go for a drive around some places for quotes

    Why isnt someone on here 3D printing these?

    Front end respray

    My 172 is now mechanically sound after nearly a year of sorting various issues, I have had to replace a few lacquer peeled trims but what's really letting it down now is the bonnet and front bumper. The bumper if just stone chipped where as the bonnet is both chipped and dented from being shut...

    Jekyll's RB182 Progress Thread

    With good reason, the man hours you've put in to it must be enormous. It's a credit to you! Does that put me in line for first dibs?😉
