I know a trick with re-texturing bumpers but it involves heat and compressed air  :wink:

MK2 looks wiked Andy. I actualy prefer the RZ's than the RM's. Either way still looks good :smiley:

I liked the rz's too but I've always wanted some rm's. I've got to own some silly wide rims at some point :)

The rear bumper has been painted black on the textured part and the front has a scuff on it. Mr Blue is your car indoors at UD?

Bit of an update.

I've collected the lips from the metal polisher and he's done a spanking job! Nice chap too.


Bumpers are retextured, coilovers fitted, mid way through the gear linkage rebuild, just waiting on the alignment tool!

Started cleaning the sh!t in the from the engine bay, wax oil covered in lots of grime....nice. Also will need to treat some surface rust at the same time. Wheels are booked in for powder coating this weekend, it's all going in the right direction ;)

Been a while since i updated.

So the RM's are on and looking good  :smiley:




Last night i fitted a lamp lamp grill with fresh pinstripe  :cool:

I'll raid the breakers next weekend for a pair of 8V's rear i think to match the fronts. Then externally i think its nearly there, bar that silly exhaust  :undecided: :grin:
