[Lacey]

Yes please

NOO! MINE!!!! (What are they? >_>) MINE I SAY!!!

Hahaha. They\'re the blanking plates for when you remove the air pump... Basically when you remove it you have to put a plate over each of the 2 holes that are there, and seal them.

Don\'t worry, John has some spares too I think - or at least a template.

[Lacey]

Ahhhh I see. (I don\'t, but we\'ll pretend I know what you just said)

The fittings for those plates are different from TII to EGi IIRC, so it\'s possible that M1tch\'s won\'t fit....

[Lacey]

Good point!

[Lacey]

And there was me trying not to be caught on camera cause my \'dirty\' clothes for doing car stuff make me look like a homeless bloke XD

This can easily be fixed if a Turbo II engine was fitted :2Rolleyes

Well you all know that a bunch of random interior bits had been sprayed a really crappy glossy black by we think the person that owned the car before the guy I bought it from, since he only had it a couple of months.

These are the bits you all know about that had been sprayed and needed de-painting.





Well, whilst playing about in the car a bit I noticed some more interior was scratched, and had red underneath. So, I discovered that even less of the red interior needs replacing, just more of it needs de-painting to bring back the original colour.

Here\'s an example, this is just what I could get out of the front, I still have the back half to do.



So yeah, much more work to do than first thought >_> Might need another 10 or so bottles of nail polish remover....



Still have that big black piece of interior panel to get off when I figure out how on both sides in the back, and loads more panels and strips in the boot. Also pulling the pillars off I discovered how brittle the plastic had become, and now my pillar cowlings are in 3 - 4 pieces each will have to get some fibreglass on the insides of them when theyre all cleaned up.

And finally, a couple of pics of the red cloth interior as promised ages ago, now that they aren\'t covered in stuff.

Hmmm, love it! Is that a sunroof too?

[Brett]

I\'m really starting to like the red... Makes me miss my Graphite T2 with the red leather...

Yeah it\'s a sunroof, did they do a Gen2 slicktop then? I thought all Coupe\'s had sunroofs??

Awwww, I absolutely adore the red!!!

When I get chance and have the money I want to get the bucket seats in there currently re-upholstered in red to match what the original seas would have looked like to bring the car back to a more OEM look.
