They look lovely mate. Really good finish on them by the looks of it.

Definitely worth the effort

I had the same issue re. Bits falling on wet paint, when I painted my headlamp housings. Got the hump in the end and just fitted them need to strip them down and redo them, but it's so much hard work!

Got steering wheel fitted today, only issues are the fact air bag light is on.. Either going to take bulb out or get a resistor. Also the horn isn't working at the moment, hopefully get that sorted soon as my MOT is in July.

Cars looking good. Those screws in the wheel would send me mental though.

Thanks Haimsey, doesn't really bother me nothing on this cars perfect just going more for the overall effect

That being said I may get some new screws at some point as they are cheap as chips.

Thanks for that Nic.

Got some nicer the photos of the interior today. The interior is pretty much done now still keeping an eye out for some of those vauxhall floor mats though think that would finish inside off nicely.







Got a few things that need to be sorted ASAP.

-Tracking needs doing as i just got new tyres due to the old ones wearing unevenly
-Need to get horn working or get a horn wired to a button if i can't
-Remove airbag light bulb
-Need a new screw in drivers sun visor
-Need to bolt the rear seat belts back properly so the plastic thing moves when the belt is pulled, (i bolted them all back wrong at first when i was putting back the pillars after doing them black then once i realised i did the fronts properly but never got round to the rear ones as they aren't used.

Took the air bag light bulb out this morning so no more warning light on all the time



I've also sorted the rear seats belts now (bolted them in properly) and got a new screw for the sun visor.

Monday I'll be going to garage to have my tracking done and hopefully sort my horn out.
