[Gus!!]

Cheers matt i'll probably just wait til i can find another lense down the scrappy, thats where that 1 came from anyways.
Yeah i agree jony it makes it tidier i think

It was the whole unit but yeah, Needed one quick and my scrappies dont have mk3's there dull and boring

[Gus!!]

Yeah it is a rarity to find a mk3 in a scrappy now maybe its a good thing??

[Gus!!]

Right, well here's the thing, i have just put 1 of the ambers in just til the new clear comes. But, i think it looks good with ambers
So what does everyone else think??

And one so you can compare

I have confused myself now

[jonyb4]

it suits the colour for me, but not the Si bumper

perhaps its because im so used to seeing them as they were, only with clears

[- Danny Boy -]

Ambers actually look pretty good!

[Gus!!]

It really suits it i think!! I have never seen an si with ambers so at least its different i spose i see what u mean jony i might put both on for a while and see how i like it!!

[Michael!]

yes.

[Gus!!]

Its good aint it!! i might leave them on!! I cleaned the car today too!! I always enjoy driving my fezzer more when its clean!! :Lol:

[Michael!]

its quality! ambers beat anything, considering them for the polo!

[Gus!!]

Lol. 6n2 gingers are hard to find because they aint standard but they look bitchin!! Hows the fezzer coming on??

[Michael!]

It's stripped ready for special stuff

[ben17southport]

looks awesome with ambers. get amber repeaters too, think it will make it blend a little better with the si bumper

[Gus!!]

Do have some repeaters but i already had to make connectors to put the clears in i dunno if i cbf!! Ok micheal but keep the recaros they r cool!!
Just been out with my mate in his starlet gt turbo, i want it, speeeeeed!!

[Michael!]

the recaros, and possible the roof liner are the only things that are staying...

[Gus!!]

I liked this picture so i thought i'd share it

Dannyboy might know where i took it

[- Danny Boy -]

Southsea!

[Gus!!]

It sure is lol. I want a picture for my sig/avatar but i cant work out how to change the size

[- Danny Boy -]

Photoshop

PM me a pic or a few and I will resize them for you.

[Gus!!]

Not an update, but how would people go about getting rid of rust/rot at the bottom of the pillar, near the scuttle?? Its been getting worse for a while and its just started to look like i could poke a hole in it

[ben17southport]

i think its time for you to invest in a grinder! or a wire brush attachment for your drill... find out if its gone all the way through, if not, use either of those tools, get rid of the rust and touch it up with whatever.

[jonyb4]

not the best advice mate

will probs end up causing a hole, then what hes got a hole to contend with and not prepared


my mk2 is in a similar boat, and the capri, such a common place, best way to sort it is to take the screen out, plate it and braze aroudn the window seal aputure, not easy though

or even better replace the entire scuttle panel


or you can simply pack the hole thats left after cutting it out, and use fiberglass or even hard resin poly filler to smooth the hole over
but that wont last particularly long, filler tends to sag on deeper use, or worse crack through vibrations


get a picture up to help determine it

[ben17southport]

hence why i said check if its solid beforehand...

[jonyb4]

still, its best to wait and to do it all properly before poking it with a screwdriver and risking a hole

rot it rot, im sure you'd want it gone either way

[ben17southport]

he wants to sort it before it gets worse... so if theres a hole, theres a hole. no changing that. and as you said, take as much rust away, aslong as the hole isnt too big, fibre filler it. exactly what i did on the valance and it worked a treat

[jonyb4]

it does work, but often fails you, i cant say s**t i just done it to the capri lol,, although im expecting it to fail one day, and im keeping an open mind to sorting it at a later date

hopefully once its in my full possession


valance you say? doesnt the Si bumper cover it?

[ben17southport]

fair play. each to their own...

yes it is, but i wanted it to look solid, not with a hole lol. thats just me

[Gus!!]

I could replacete scuttle but the worst bit is actually on the pillar!! I'll take a picture tomorrow, couldnt today cos it was alteady dark. I have a pot of touch up paint that is the same ish!!

[Gus!!]

A pic ofthe previously mentioned rust!!

[- Danny Boy -]

Thats pretty bad. I can see a hole already. Might want to take the windscreen out and get that whole area ground back as miuch as possible and filled in.

[Gus!!]

I know!! its the only thing letting it down rust-wise!! Trouble is i dont have any paint except touch up paint
