Big fat raspberries to you. LOL!

I don't think I'd quite pass muster for mastermind, but I am a prize masterbaker.

Let's face it, you are still driving one of the rarest, and coolest cars in Gloucestershire.

I know. I just can't help my geekness. Most of it stems from the investigations I made into the different models, before I imported mine.

Really cannot complain at that! Surprising the amount of people that now need a ride somewhere... Haha

Managed a small mod today, I wasn't entirely happy with the orange and red side markers so today I took them out, tinted them a little and stuck them back in. They still shine the same as before but they don't stand out as much while they're off.

Hey Guys across the pond! Try the LED side markers from Showstoppers in the states. You can add resistors to dim them down too.

Way too much inspiration to contain after the meet yesterday, this afternoon I smoked my taillights a little and painted the chrome bezels in matt black, looks niiiiiiiice.

Looking most excellent.
Great progress along the road to your theme :-)

rikkuness · 07-13-2014, 01:46 PM

Still amazed by how easy these are to work on, 8 screws and the whole rear end just popped right off, glorious!

Now the Circle is Complete
Now you are The Master

Pray do tell how to do the back end removal ... I'm more of a Front End bloke :-O Ha Ha

There's 3 torx screws and 1 7mm bolt/screw in the back side of each rear wheel arch, take those out and pull the wing towards you and it'll pop out, then just pop the whole unit off backwards (after disconnecting the wiring)

I just watched this http://youtu.be/B2GwPtfATjs and got stuck in

That will be a lot easier than snapping tabs getting the light bezels out and crushing your hand getting to the sides too :-)
