Yeh man... I definitely want the stereo surround. I'll see about the parcel shelf.
Only problem atm is that I don't have my car!
You mind hanging onto it for a few more days? |

Thought I'd dig this up... Car has been at the panel beaters for the past two weeks to get the following done...
- Original bootlid fitted, holes welded/bogged up and resprayed.
- Side skirts mounted correctly. (They were sagging a little on one side)
- Front bar rubbed back, cracks fixed, sanded, etc, to fit perfectly and resprayed.
- Dent on rear quarter panel from an Asian cyclist fixed.
- Damage caused to the panel surrounding the drivers handle from an attempted break in fixed.
- Fading on front passenger pillar resprayed.
- Spot where bird crap lifted the paint on the roof fix.
- Dent on roof fixed.
- Roof resprayed.
- Rubber sounding rear windows (usual fading) rubbed back and resprayed in black.
Quite a substantial list there! But not a substantial price icon_smile.gif
I'm looking forward to getting it back. Dropped in there tonight after uni to see the progress and they're going to start rubbing it back tomorrow. So will hopefully be done be Monday next week.
Meanwhile, I've bought myself a BA air intake, AU Tickford snorkel and a few little interior goodies like a trip computer, just for kicks. That will keep me from going mad with all this uni work.
Watch this space!!! |

Nah man.
That kit you have is not so good looking but if done right it has the potential of looking good if you get me. So i take it when you get your car back the body will look 100%
The cluster professionally made?! Awesome cant wait to see that. |

Car's back...
Looks awesome IMO. Everything is fixed up...
People will notice that the colour of the front bumper is still slightly lighter. My Panel Beater assures me that there's nothing he can do about it short of basically re-spraying the front guards. That's what I assumed. It really doesn't bother me, it's barely noticeable in person anyway...
I went and took some shots tonight. Show's the car's finish. Very shiny All buffed.
Here's a few snaps...

I thought a South Aussie would recognise the Festival Theatre when they saw it...
There's a small road/path coming off of one of the car park roads around the Festival Theatre which leads down to the Torrens River.
There's no "DO NOT ENTER" signs... so I entered  |
