It's a nice start after so long. Not sure whether to polish the base under the down pipes or do them gloss black. -
yes I know the metal needs polishing . It's WIP innit?

Hey again guys! Celica track car question.
daytona replied to geraintthomas's topic in General Celica Discussion
Most of the young guns will shoot me down as a traitor.............but I grew up driving rear wheel drive and prefer it. After all F1 is rear wheel drive. End of argument! Add to that the squillions of MX5 to choose from and also that is why their aftermarket is so much better served. Numbers! Other side of coin? Less rust issues with yours. You know it & love it. Car purchases and women do not have to be logical to be right................................... -
Thank you. Nice end to a lunch break.

Three of these for my diet. If you don't know what this has to do with CCUK you need to read the Brain Tumour research thread in Off Topic

Nice one Biggie I was doing the tyre pressures on Sunday before driving to the ACE meet and the guy next in the queue said he didn't realise they still made "Those". They stopped 10 years ago, I advised. "Really?? I haven't seen a 10 year old car in that condition outside of a showroom!" To be fair he was at the rear quarter and couldn't see the bloody stone chips.........

A question for all the paint guru's
daytona replied to skatz114's topic in General Celica Discussion
If a good pro is doing just one panel he will try to avoid going "edge to edge".(s)he will leave an inch or two border and feather the new paint into the old for this reason. This also applies to metallic because the chips can lay differently depending on many variables. This is so even if painting adjacent panels from the same tin of paint on different days! -

Also try compounding and polishing the rest of the car too. Red has the most notorious fade but other paint changes over time too. -

Storm blue is a black base coat with bright blue metallic chips. It looks black from a distance but shimmers blue in sunlight

Nice one Jonny I chickened out and got them re manufactured @ 50 a side so I didn't chip my manicure They don't turn the car into a bonkers BBK servo monster , but they do bite a fraction sooner and stop quicker with less effort imho. How about yours?
