First job was to quickly clean the headlights; just a couple of journeys with light spray and they get filthy. Then I reapplied some Gummi Pflege to the roof seals. On the topic, just a quick update on the whole leaky roof thing, it seems to be holding up very well. Since stuffing the seals I've driven the car on a couple of occasions in absolutely horrid weather and I've had no leaks! Really happy about that :) My exhaust looks very sorry for itself: [IMG]http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g230/nibnob21/Eunos%20Roadster/0509.jpg[/IMG] So I had the thought to try and clean it up a bit. So on I proceeded, happy as Larry in my own little world, and started to lightly sand it with 600 grit wet and dry. Then I suddenly had the realisation that I was trying to clean up mild steel. So what I was doing was quite frankly pointless :lol: I'm not wanting to fork out for a nice stainless aftermarket backbox so I think I may just cut the tip off and buy an eBay special shiny tip to replace it. Final and main job of the day was to fit an R-Package rear lip (matches the front). I started by bolting one end of it to the rear bumper using an existing hole: [IMG]http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g230/nibnob21/Eunos%20Roadster/0510.jpg[/IMG] Then marked up the rear bumper, drilled it, and bolted the other end on: [IMG]http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g230/nibnob21/Eunos%20Roadster/0511.jpg[/IMG] I could then mark all the other points to drill. It was at this point I noticed some very subtle markings I hadn't seen before. And low and behold they all lined up with the holes in the lip (bar one that was slightly off). See the little dimpled cross?: [IMG]http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g230/nibnob21/Eunos%20Roadster/0512.jpg[/IMG] So that saved me a load of hassle. I drilled out all the holes where the dimples were and bolted on the lip and separate smaller section with ease :) A before and a few afters: [IMG]http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g230/nibnob21/Eunos%20Roadster/0513.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g230/nibnob21/Eunos%20Roadster/0514.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g230/nibnob21/Eunos%20Roadster/0515.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g230/nibnob21/Eunos%20Roadster/0516.jpg[/IMG] Not the best photos but you get the idea. I absolutely love it. The line of the rear bumper, sills and front lip all tie together really nicely now. [/quote]
