@96f0f9c7e2=jamesshack:
Dude ur a legend. U have a eunos right? Does the back end have stickers or badges?
Some do, some don't, but I'm in the process of getting some made up for it OEM reps.
-
DJMP sent me this link, its were i got the hood but its got a raised spoiler on it.
-
the bonnets gonna need a respray when i get it cause there are a few scratches, and i want to keep the red one incase of resale, just thinking though that i would need to use high temp paint on it and laquer it. another thought just struck me. will it fit? is the a difference in mounting points on the 1.6 euro to the 1.8 eunos? should have thought of that eh?
-
No diff to the way the UK spec and the 1.8 Eunos bonnet fits, I'd put cash on the fact the 1.6 fits the same way.
4x bolts near the wipers (2 each side)

If the scratches aren't down to the metal or primer you can buff them out using something like Autoglym Paint Renovator or similar compounds (if they are deep use Meguiars Ultimate Compound). Remember to wax the bonnet after using these though.
No need to use VHT on a bonnet, normal paint will do grand.

Just dropped her off at mt local garage for the clicking, feel like an expectant father now and its only been 15 minutes!
-
she's home and happy, garage said it was seized sliders and contact with the disc, made sure they copper grease everything and now she just squeaks a little, dunno why though, gotta say I was crapping it cause it could have been anything. but 2 hours labour + vat £47 :D nice

Very nice price, my mech is £35 per hour but he did used to work for TRD :)

The clicking came back tonight, it's quieter but then that's how it started, gonna replace the pads again I think and another new pin kit. See if that does it if not I am stumped cause the garage said they had fixedit. :cry:

Thought it looked familiar! Good luck with the sale.
-
Yeah… i thought that too!!!
Good Luck with the sale... but please, gimme your spoiler and lights first :wink:
-
just to say if that is yours, the listing is very vague and a bit poop really
and if you are selling up, why not px the rear spoiler for a standard one with a club member before it went :wink:
