My mod for this week end

Slippy;11176 wrote: Do them yourelf, Ive done a few piano black bits for my F, Scoops, spoiler, boot hinge covers, petrol cap etc. Im no expert but the trick is lots of light coats, well 4 - 6 rubbed down well in between each time with 1200 wet & dry then same with clear lacquer.

After doing my door cappings silver I bought another set & this is what I did last weekend!

I do like that colour, is it volcano?
Piano black suits it perfectly, IMO.:yesnod:

Thanks David, Yes its Volcano.
When I was looking for another car last year...........an MX5 :shake: :dunno: I came across a Volcano 1.8i F, that was it for me, it had to be a Volcano F VVC with leather & I found her & bought her un seen on ebay, mega happy with it.

:offtopic: sorry

The best way I find to get that "wet look" on the tyres is.....................................................water

Id just washed the car :dunno:

Ive got some Meguires stuff but not done em yet.

That'll be the damp in my garage, and not being touched for 4 months.

Console in and looking good (i think anyway), New Gear knob going on my shopping list.



On .org you'll have seen this, here it is a reminder of what my car looked like last year.



After plenty of angle grinder action we have this, Still some welding todo!





And the bit i'm eager to get on.
