My 1.2 doesnt tell me what I do :( Nice car mate. :)

I feel for you sash, but joe did just make me spit a little petit filous on my keyboard. I hope the "all meets cancelled" comment was just a womany sulk?

May be contacting your for a price some time soon then mate. Oh and I managed to pull that f**king grill off! Nearly had a man-gasm! Although I think due to a crash the body is slightly outta shape and it doesn't quite sit 100% perfect. But MUCH better.

Ah sugar, can't do tmrw, spending it with the missus so I can go pick up some 172 door cards in the eveinng. (Look in for sale section for explanation) Gotta drive all the way to uxbridge. Only time I could do is early, which is no good as you are working, sorry mate. Shame to let the hard work...

Proper clean this! Would love to have the patience to do this to mine. What wheel cleaner do you use? Results are good.

Very good job, considering buying a horrible cheap polisher for just those jobs.

Went to see Rob today (TheEvilGiraffe) who helped me give the car its first half proper going over in practically forever... Car was washed to get road dirt from the jourey off, we then clayed the car (for the first time EVER), attempted to remove tar spots with AG tar remover and failed, and...

Both really nice. I'd still rather have the clio, just couldnt put myself in a PUMA, racing or not.

Well done for having a go mate and it looks a hell of a lot better but I've gotta agree that the finish would have been a lot better if you'd spent some time on finishing it off. You could still make it look a lot better still, starting off with some 300 grit, then 500 then 800 then paint it...

Wish I knew your mate /jealous

Trying to fix the f**ked one as I type, Primer. Sand. Primer. Sand. Primer. Sand Kill me

I didn't even know this was happening, damn :(

Yeah I intend to mate, think these are the originals :dead: How much am I looking at for bare basic plates?

Its glued on, on the inside of one of the clips!!! Air gun may be a shout, but if its been done by a garage then it'll probably be alderite so maybe no chance. P.s I h'actually just ate some weetabix!!!

Thing tells you where there is a current mate and how powerful it is.

Think I managed to get the cap I screwed up back to a resonable state of primer yesterday, so I'm going to sand it back today and put some paint on it. If the results are bad it'll be a new centre cap :(

Looking really good this mate. Colour coding looks spot on, can I ask where you had and done and how much it was? Ph2 rear lights make such a difference too :) Wish I could get my "grill" type thing off, one side has been glued in :( (want to cry) One last question, how did you find...

Looking good Megz only thing i'll say is you coulda done with some tyre shine!!! :)

Care to enlighten me as to where? (130 is a lot of money for a poor man though, but that doesnt sounds as bad as I thought)

Looks like you're going all out with it mate. Hope it goes well, Really like the car, checker graphics are quite cool actually. See what you meant in my thread about being quite similar to mine :)

Very noice mate. Love the cup spoilers, they are expensive but definately worth it. Turbines should look schweet too.

I just thought maybe with bolt covers and some new axel nut caps they'd look quite cool.... from the responses, I guess not :rasp:

Cheers mate, Its no impressive track project but its something to keep me occupied and learn on. Gonna have a go at painting up some replica skirts next, if this goes well, i'll move onto side strips then front and back bumpers.

When i've finished the fucked centre cap (maybe tmrw) I'll see what i prefer, on or off. I'll take some pics for opinions. A poll maybe.. :P

Dude someone is breaking a silver ph1 atm in the for sale threads, I'm sure you could get any bits and bobs you need off of him! Just a heads up :) Edit: oh and pics?

I'm going to take it all off one day next week mate so I'll let you know if i fix it. This is the cars second front bumper so maybe it just wasnt put back right?

Lovely looking motor this, love the ph2 rear ends on the ph1's.

Now I do wanna cry! Car could really do with it, and I coulda done with the help! Cheers for the thought of the offer though. LOL! Being poor means my cleaning products are gone. I used the last tiny bit of my shampoo today which is why it's not quite as shiny as usual. Got an interview weds...

I can't decide, some of my mates hate them without centre caps, some think it looks awesome without, and I really don't know. Rob, Cheers, clean-ish but not by your standards tbh :o. I couldn't actually afford some SRP either, so I still haven't got around to giving it a damn good polish!

I was thinking put some black bolt caps on the wheel bolts, and get a whole new set of those gold caps that go on the end of the axels? I'm kinda feeling the no cap's look.
