jalesi2001 Posted May 13, 2010 Author Share Posted May 13, 2010 Ha ha, i told her i need these as you dont want dodgy brakes now do you??? @sparco, my side repeaters are Genuine Honda items from a '99 Accord mate....well, one side is, the other side is from a rover i think!! When i replace my wing i have another Accord repeater fitted so they will match!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalesi2001 Posted May 26, 2010 Author Share Posted May 26, 2010 Well done a few more things since my last entry!! Talking of changing my wing, i have finally done this now, but i haven't washed her so i haven't got any pics of the finished product, but heres a few pics of her with the old wing off...I also de-badged the rear tailgate, but left the '1.8VTI' badge on for now...Re-gassed my A/C...And also fitted my new grill....this had taken me nearly two weeks, and im fairly chuffed with the outcome, considering it was done in my garage with rattle cans!! Heres a pic of most of the stages....(pic heavy...!!)Ok, heres the badge and surround once sanded down..Then after a few coats of primer...Then some Pirates Black paint thrown at it!!While i was doing that, i took apart my spare grill...Then attempted cutting my very thick (too thick really) mesh...It got a bit more trimmed than that in the end!!Then as I was waiting for the laquer to dry on my painted bits, i ran the car like this for a few days....Grill Mark 1 Then the day finally came, it all went together, and i decided at the last minute to not fit the H badge, i went for a red badge instead to match my rear red badge. I still have the PB H if i decide to change it at a later date... Heres the finished grill fitted, im quite chuffed for a first attempt, what do you guys rekon???The goodridge brakelines didn't fit by the way, the rears were to short, i think Blames went for ITR hoses so I will get some of them one of these days!! Also need a new handbrake cable, that'll be fitted this weekend, along with some calipers from Rich... Oh and some new Brake Fluid!!When i give her a wash i will post some better shots.... More stuff to follow!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
