My 'mera GX 1.6

It draws hot air from the manifold to the back of the engine. The fans pull cold air through the radiator to cool the fluid inside it.

i love my raised bonnet when your sat at traffic lights, and you get heat haze up your windscreen = WIN.

 

[RAJackson]

just been out cutting the rust off my sill. not as bad as the other side. so i sprated Zinc rich primer into every gap i could find. hopefully that will do some good. getting welded on friday night, then its ready to face mr mot

Rust Removal, Day 1

So went at the sill with an electric wire brush today. it crumbled like a biscuit.

Zinc Rich Primer to all the structural metal under the sill skin and in the pocket on the wheel arch, this should help keep the rust at bay in future

Getting welded up on friday then its paint time for both sides as there is surface brown on the side thats been fixed already

[Hopelessness]

Spoiler and front splitter WOO stella will do mate

NOOOOO can I have a half?

 

[RAJackson]

correctamundo.

spent the day painting the spoiler and found the megane splitter at the scrappy this morning

some more pics

i'm pletty pleased with how the spoiler turned out, just needs polished and all will be well

 

[Chris180]

looking good! good colour match too! did you find a wee boy to clean the car in the scrappy too? lol

 

[Hopelessness]

The spoiler completely transforms the back end if you ask me.

 

[almera-boy]

the spoiler and splitter look the business mate and also really liking that grill.

 

[RAJackson]

cheers mate, i'm gonna take it off at the end of april and repaint it... its looking a little tired now...

 

[StevenC]

Looks good man awsome colour match!!

Think the spoiler could do with a couple more coats clear/laquer as seems a bit flat. Could come up alright with a gid compound polish right enough.

 

[Simcard]

Its probably in this thread somewhere but how do i go about getting me one of them there bear stickers?

 

[RAJackson]

i ordered them from the US, i still have one left, send me an offer

 

[RAJackson]

Cleaned!

gave the car the first proper clean of the year today, including a polish with megs "tech wax"

first time i've used a megs product and i am pretty impressed

took two pics, first one is my favourite pic out of all i have of my car

i also found out that when i got a new tyre last week they put a 205/50/15 on instead of a 195... that will explain why they were so insitant that alloy went on the back...

 

[Corbalicious]

Nice one, that blue looks so nice when its clean!

Has your car been in a front ender? Doesnt look like the bonnet lines up properly

 

[RAJackson]

ARGH

EDIT

I fail

nobody saw that... corbs... low blow

 

[Corbalicious]

[RAJackson]
