The story of my MA8!

Hi!

Yesterday I spoke (via email) with BC Racing! And when I read the topic of  Dexer (thank you for the pictures), who also bought their coilovers but for EG6, I saw that they have plates for brake hoses .... And when I took my they did. I decided to ask them if there is a chance to buy them now, I do not want the kit, but just themselves plates. Then their answer directly killed me!

They do not just say yes of course, but I was told that I will not be charged for this. I'm just speechless. I like their attitude. Here in Bulgaria are less 'traders' who will do this .... Thanks BC Racing! :)

I replaced the window and of course did not go smoothly ... From the workshop did not do much and  had to fix things alone ... But now it's much better ... .However there's more to be desired. Later photos!

Plans for the summer! I have a lot of work, but I hope to do most especially hopefully have money for that ...

Complete painting with plasti dip (yes)! 

/as an example!

Improve sound insulation in the cabin!

Change in the headlights, cosmetic changes!

New speakers for front and rear!

If I can do this, I'll be happy. :)

Thank you! Anyway will repaint the car! And I think to try plasti dip .... But not to protect the original, which is ruined .. There is a time to think over your words and will decide, it is still early ....

So for this talk, tease me a lot and I'm not sure what is the right solution ..

Take 'new clips, but no one knows whether they will keep the old seal (much sun, rain, snow) has seen over the years ....

Or sealed with silicone (transparent) or (black).

What advice would you give me!

When the weather is warm, it will do for now accept all opinions and decisions.

I note that the clips are not broken, but do not hold well. Hold it for a few seconds to a minute and it's ....

Is it just me or does it look rotten under window seals?? And you mentioned that the paint job is ruined...

I would save to repair rotten window seals (just clear silicone for now), new windows and full respray... That'll have it looking mint!!! :)

No no, rotten! It was cold in the morning ....

This is the new window ..... 

I will show what I'm talking about paint ...
After the incident in the first page, the car was painted (not entirely) to the rear doors, because the color was not at all the same in the first application, but not well. And of course it was not done properly then! And after several washes started to peel and the view I do not like ....
 
I hope to be understood! Excuse me for bad English!

Hey! Today was a pretty busy day, but I'm glad that almost everything on the car and it was a completely different car!
List installed parts:
Coilovers!
Rear Trailing Arm!
Rear sway bar!
Polyurethane bushing for front and rear bars!
New rear brake shoes!
 

My impressions are pretty good!
The car does not tilt in turns, sits firmly on the road and ride is pretty good except if some sections are bad ... :)

For now I will drive it like this:
