If anyone is selling or knows anyone who is breaking a TII could you please either reply to this thread or email me at - Retroboyg(g)gmail.com.
I\'m looking for some body parts from it..
Mucho thanks guys! :)
-
Me. What you after?
-
The side skirts.. :)
-
Ah I see. Will let you know about them. I\'m having to take mine off this week so if I damage one then I will replace it with one off my other car. If not then They are for sale.
-
Don\'t damage them then! According to James this is 100% stock.. if this is the case then i\'m in heaven.. might be because its white it looks like it sticks out so much but ive never noticed how nice they are until i seen this pic.

-
Yep looks stock except for the wheels and its been lowered. Exhaust even looks like mine!
-
Right, well just sell me them then.. please. ? :)
-
They look like this on my car at a stock ride height and stock wheels.
-
I don\'t want to break when I take them off but you can\'t help accidents!
-
Some more pic\'s.

If you look closely in the last pic you can see James\'s new splitter in my car.
-
Ha ha i can spot it!.. Right man.. honestly, take it off very slowly and be gentle.. i will take it.. right now.. please!!
-
P.S. Whats the sunroof like? I really need one of them too!
-
It\'s got the usual rust bubbles on it. Will take some pic\'s next time I\'m at the car.
-
While you are there, can you take off the skirts and give them to me please? haha.. Would probably take the Sunroof anyway as a project.
-
Are you selling clutch and slave cylinder?
-
have you got spare head light switch?? cheers =)
-
Headlight switch I have got yes. £15 + P+P?
The cltch I am keeping for myself I\'m afraid Neil as its nearly new and I\'ve already robbed the slave cylinder for mine sorry!
-
are the skirts going on an EGI ??
is so you will need the front panel aswell that sits on the front wheel arches
the actual skirts come off no probs - its the front bits that are a pain
and not the easiest thing to re-attach ( i used silcon to put mine back on )
-
Thanks for the heads up Stu. You wanna give me a hand since you know what your doing!
-
errr no - its a right pain
1 - loosen the front bit on the wing first
2 - remove the inner plastic cill guard ( 5 screws i think )
3 - look underneath and there are 3-4 bolt heads
3a - there might be one by the back wheel aswell ??? - yes there is
4 - remove these
5 - slowly pry the skirt away from the car
6 - mine was glued on aswell - so have a knife handy
7 - keep prying and cutting the glue until its loose
8 - you should beable to get the skirt off and leave the bit on the wing where it is - but you have to bend the skirt a bit
its not a bad job to be honest :D
you can see better on this pic : http://www.fc3s.co.uk/Rusty%20Rex/images/Big/Dsc03118.JPG
and this is what mine ended up looking like - its not pretty : http://www.fc3s.co.uk/Rusty%20Rex/images/Big/Dsc03119.JPG
-
and this pics show the front bit removed - so you can see how big it is
-
Damn it, lol
Thanks mate
-
Headlight switch I have got yes. £15 + P+P?
u got pm..
-
Oh god.. i think i should just stick with the Replikit one then.. It seems to just sit over the existing sides..
-
What ever Gianni. I\'m gonna take em off what ever, so should I just contact you when I get round to doing it and see if you\'ve got any by then.
-
Ha ha man i\'ll still take them.. the car wont be leaving the garage for a good 3-4 months anyways so i have the time. I\'m sure you will sort me a good price anyways dude.. Hopefully James is going to take me down to collect them.. that is going to cost me a load in petrol! haha..
-
Sounds like a plan. Why don\'t you bring yours down as well and we\'ll organize a meet for the afternoon?
-
It\'s only insured for 1500 miles man.. and i\'m saving them up for the summer days! When you thinking of making a start on it?
-
Well I finish for Christmas next Friday so after then when I\'m off. My car is booked in for some welding :( on the 22nd hence having to take mine off. So once that is done I\'ll sort it out. Need to start stripping everything off the car really as it has to go soon. So watch out for posts of bits coming up for sale. What ever doesn\'t get bought will be scrapped unfortunately.
-
whats that - the spare red one ??
i would love loads of silly bits off it - more of the underneath stuff - so that i could get them sprayed and the poly bushed fitted - then just a simple case of swapping the parts out - thing is - i prob would never get the time to do it :(
if you are stuggling with space mate - box up what you can and you can store it in my garage if you want - i have some spare space if needed :D
but personally i would pretty much try and strip it back to a shell :D
if you need a hand one day and i have time - give me a shout and i will bob up and help you strip it ( i dont think your that far from me ?? )
-
Much appreciated Stu that would be a big help. The car is up at my Nan\'s house and she\'s not so good at the min (in hospital :() And If she doesn\'t pull though her house will be sold asap. Meaning I have to get rid of the car the engine and my motor bike out of the garage.
-
hummmm thats not good - i hope your nan pulls thru
im sure we can sort something
when are you back in work ??
-
5th of January. So I have a little time to play with. Hopefully my Nan will be ok and that\'ll give me more time.
-
Ade, never realised your car looks soooo nice! Ha ha! I mean it looked good in the pitch black but with the light on it is gorgeous! Lol! You must have had those alloys reconed as well eh? They look like new! Waaaaaay nicer than the ones my turbo came with!:evillaugh
BTW if i take that Gianni creep down to see you i\'ll pick up that ignition light we were talking about remember? Also i\'ll need to talk to you about your guy with the sets of coilovers?
-
Lets all just goto Ade\'s and rape his TII for all its worth. haha.. Hope your nan is ok dude. Email me with the price you are looking for also..
-
Hey if you lot wanna all pop round then I\'m sure we can sort something out.
James The light is yours bud don\'t worry.
As for my wheels trust me they arn\'t that nice to look at. I had just spent about 3hrs cleaning my car the day of that pic.
-
Well i\'m good anytime.. It\'s all down to James.
