"new version" apparantly. It doesnt overhang the cam covers btw. sits just right.

Jigs2895 10th May 2014 19:47

Is that a milky fog light I see or just the way the picture is taken?

Prickle 10th May 2014 19:51

Hazy abit thats all. Not corroded inside or out lol. Ideally i need a new one.. least of my worries atm.

Jigs2895 10th May 2014 19:57

I took mine off (3 bolts) and took it apart and cleaned it all up and used silicone around the edges to seal it better, worked a treat if you don't fancy buying a new one.

The clean plates make such a difference

Prickle 15th May 2014 19:11

Sorted the fog out

Before;

And put a good few hours into the engine bay









Dropped the car off this morning for the wheels to be done in Silver. I know a few may not notice the difference but it's a massive difference, more so when the sun hits it. :D

Before;









After













:y:

New vinyl (gen) to go behind the door after the respray. I just need to get hold of a pair for the doors.



Thats it now till the sides been resprayed - hopefully a top nothc job to finish the car for FCS!

They look spot on!

Jigs2895 15th May 2014 20:01

Good to see you sorted the fog out! Wheels look ten times better, pretty much completes the whole car, they are definitely my next thing to do.

I've sealed them up but if they start again i'll have to replace it like. Got a crack free boot plinth in the post also. ECU tray got done, no pics of that.
Cheers. :y:

Colour you thinking?

Mine have been sealed up for the last 6 months and haven't gone back so they should be fine. My boot plinth was also cracked, it's really the little things :homme:

I just want an OEM silver also, i'll note the colour code you got yours done in as it looks spot on really.

Prickle 15th May 2014 20:21

Yeah the little things lol. make the biggest diff though

I was looking at loads of Silvers but this is the best one i think. :D

blackie_2k5 15th May 2014 22:34

looking mean and clean johnny boy

Prickle 15th May 2014 22:39

Cheers Andy, It's getting there. Slowly and costly. :P

blackie_2k5 15th May 2014 22:42

its the daft bits that all add up. im sick of spending on mine lol

be good to see this at fcs and have a nose round..with any luck i wont be in a hire car :homme:

Prickle 15th May 2014 22:46

Last big expense is the full side respray again cause he's correcting that WANKER's fuck up. I need some vt clips again and the door vinyl which i imagine is around £20 quid.

Plain sailing after that really and make it as shiney as i can haha.

I think you'll have the little XSI sorted man.

blackie_2k5 15th May 2014 22:56

i might have some clips ill have a look

i hope so ive spent a fucking fortune on it and ill be pissed if it dont make it

its still gonna be rough as fuck and wont be painted but long as it goes im cool ill do the rest after i get back and means no rush

Yeah but you cant do the job you do and make the car concourse man. At least if it turns up its a good start and maybe push you do Trax? :oops: :P

I'd be happy enough to see it go as it as haha.

Simon 16th May 2014 13:22

IIRC, it was cheaper to buy a pair of door vinyls from Citroen than it was to buy just the one side.
