Looks gorgeous.

Looks like you need a replacement top grill, looks like its faded in the sun like mine has.

Swap your wheels for the cup pack ones

 

[JohnnyE]

Looks nice mate welcome to Trophy ownerships

 

[Keith185]

Looks lovely, if grills faded just get some plastic trim product on it

 

[ScottL]

Really smart trophy, as said above get some plastic trim restorer on the grill or you can take it off and spray it black again

 

[Krys_23]

Thanks for the comments, i tyre gelled everything today but forgot the grill thats why it will be standing out! Had all four wheels off cleaned inside out with bilberry at 3:1, cleaned dampers but think they're due a rebuild!

Looks great mate, mind me asking what it set you back?

 

[Krys_23]

Cleaned up the sachs :

 

[jesus]

Nice mate - looks in very good nick. The Sachs all get like that, I slapped a load of silver Hammerite on mine.

 

[Chi]

I think Ive read that you can get them powder coated when they are refurbed..

 

[jesus]

You can if you use Cornering Force. I opted not to get mine done as I needed them for the Nurburgring a few days later

 

[Keith185]

As Jesus mentioned Silver Hammerite is pretty much exact match for the Sachs silver. Have look in my project thread as I've sprayed mine twice now since I've had car.

Wheels came up great too

 

[Beef-Mc]

I recognised the plate, was this in Oban?

I'm pretty puzzled as to get them refurbished or not, no paperwork to say they have been, i'll get them looked at by someone who knows what they're doing like.

If you push down on the wing and the car doesn't move, they're fine! If it's bouncy then they need doing.
