Sam's Proper MX-3 - LT Turbo project *Parting out*
-
@b59c7bca4b=djmarcopolo:
Being a 1.6 mx5 engine I have seen the pulleys exposed before, maybe worth getting a pair of new ones and get those painted or chromed and do a cambelt and pulley change :wink:
Thats the plan mate :wink:
@b59c7bca4b:
Looks good ;)
goes well too :D
-
Thats going to look the shizzle in 2 weeks time :D
-
Its a shame thats the date I would of have Archenemy round to roll my arches so I could fit the new wheels!
-
Been wanting to debadge the bonnet since I fitted the new bumper,
so this morning I popped the badge off using a plastic body filler scraper
to reveal this.
Next up I hit it with some soapy water, TF-90 electrical contact cleaner and my thumb to remove the sticky residue, then some safe cut to bring the colour back. My plan was to use red electrical tape that had been holepunched to create two perfect dots to cover the holes, it was completly the wrong red though! So off to Hobbycraft to find some sticky stuff of the same colour, ending up coming back home with these buttons,lol
I think it has the desired effect though, and will do till it gets done properly :D
might have to attack the back now :wink:
-
lol you are ridiculous sometimes
(in a good way)
-
:) :)
haha like it, very clever!
-
lol…...it's original, gotta give you that! :) Your car is looking Awesome!
-
lol great idea and the front look loads better without the badge ive had an idea for the back using the mr2 rear godykit spats with a bit of modding i think it would ork well

just an idea that could be done
-
Thanks Fellas, I do try to think outside the box :lol:
Nice idea Jay, it would work well they are rather expensive on postage!
Think I'd rather go a bit on the drift rear bumper to acheive those spats though :)
-
you can get them cheaper than that it was mainly for the pic lol

-
Oh yeah thats better :D

Got noooo money for bodykit, as you can see Im playing with buttons :lol:
-
Went to debadge the boot this morning expecting to find the same holes as
in the bonnet, but no the badges were just stuck on!
So a quick TF-90 and soft cut seesion means Im fully debadged now :D
