blaqkaudio Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) Been getting some last minute bits sorted before bhp... Some maintenance in the form of Tegiwa shock socks. Considering the cost of the coilovers and how much it can be a pain adjusting these, it's a small price to pay to prevent them seizing After just 2 weeks use Cleaned up, layered in copper slip and wrapped up Sure I will thank myself in the future when adjusting the ride height Spigot rings were also fitted whilst this was going on... Some more spraying action with the new purple colour Much better than the old colour I was using, slowly redoing all of it... Zed sat on the drive, filthy and looking sorry for itself whilst I'm using the Polo this week Then I finally took the plunge and got some custom centre badges made up. Very fast production and delivery once the design was agreed on, the quality is top notch Very pleased with them And finally (a pre-birthday present from myself) I got the car booked into the bodyshop this Thursday. Finally getting rid of the 'bad boy snow plow' (as everyone calls it) and back to the smart oem look. First time it's seen daylight since mid last year forgot the badge was already smoothed out Anyway should be looking smart and ready for bhp onwards!

blaqkaudio Posted May 24, 2015 Author Share Posted May 24, 2015 (edited) Haven't updated recently but the old bumper came off as planned just in time for BHP & SuperCar Seige... Oem bumper back on, sprayed and fitted looking fresh for the summer During this time, after some peer pressure from friends I decided to do one of the first mods you usually do, dewiper the rear for a smoother look. Before: After: I then popped down to Halfrauds for a grommet to tackle the rear washer nozzle My god did it put up a fight! End result: Despite having the argument that I actually used the rear wiper, turns out some RainX solves that problem and it does look loads better. Also later found a spot from BHP on Facebook And now my old trashed bumper sits relegated to the garden patio, undecided what to do as it's gotta go, may pop a for sale ad up or just smash it to bits Edited May 24, 2015 by blaqkaudio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chirag1988 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Good to meet you last night mate, car looking smart! I'm gonna try to sort out the feet of my strut bar over the next couple of weeks.

blaqkaudio Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 Good work there Thanks mate Good to meet you last night mate, car looking smart! I'm gonna try to sort out the feet of my strut bar over the next couple of weeks. What grade wet & dry did you use to sand it first? Was good to meet you too mate the strut...I've messed up so far, I dipped the strut feet straight into a tub of black hammerite, left them for a week in the hope they would fully harden, they did but I can tell it's not enough, I've no doubt it will crack and come away as soon as I put the bolts in need to strip them down and start again... Great work buddy. Cars looking sweeeet! Big fan - keep up the good work! Cheers mate, enjoying the car atm so only little diy mods on the go currently What's wrong with the bumper ? EDIT: Ah just saw, swapped over. Yeah, not a personal of anything fibreglass anymore...prefer the smart oem look, surprised how long it lasted though!

blaqkaudio Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 You still got that old bumper? Yes Brad, still go it, thinking of popping it on gumtree for local pickup or just skipping it. Its damaged and cracked though mate, guess it can be repaired might be of use to someone tracking or drifting their zed and just needs a bumper...
