This makes me want my 53 plate 'R back as she was mint. If i have the money when my mate comes to sell it, i might. Looks a cracker, keep her standard!!

I think its the same on all Saxos? And thanks. :)

Thanks.

She will be. :)

Ey up.

Right i decided to get up at 8am this morning to crack on with jobs i wanted done weeks ago. Little did i know sanding one half of the cam cover takes me nearly 3hrs. :S

Before ish. (with a light sand)



Note i did the front cover with the covers still attached to the engine.. Back im doing tommorow morning.

Nearly 3hrs later







And painted calipers Yellow to go with the 'S badge on the door.









Btter pics tommorow when the cars washed, polished. Going to clay it too.

Man get a better jack before your car falls off that thing.

I agree its a shite jack. :(

Sorry for not saying about your work just that jack is bad news, but good job mate:y:

Ive noticed when i do come to jack it up the jack tilts alittle. Thats why i had to borrow axel stands when i changed the calipers over. I will get a better one soon. Small trolly jack.

And cheers. :)

Didnt do the over part of the cam cover (hectic morning, dont ask) later on i washed, clayed and waxed the car. These are only pics in the street. will get some better ones later.

I also got a new pin in the post from Delboy.























Cheers.

Paint your calipers black :D

Na i like them Yellow. ;)

Haha cheers.

Heat gun (Low Setting) on the grey part of the bumpers! :y:

I did black them but as you can see its came out grey. :(

Il have to buy a heat gun. :)

Hair dryer on hot works but takes a little longer! Looking clean though! Makes me miss my silver Saxo! :(

Could of at least cleaned it for the photos...

brb off to make it dirty. :P

:p

I might try the hair dryer still tommorow. Ive got all day lol.

BTW in that PM i guess they will be ok for the rear calipers? if so il just buy new.

Edit; bought new slider pins so il change them all over to brand new when they come. :)

needs lowering

How did you get that finish on the rocker cover i you dont mind me asking?

I used Sandpaper, went from the roughest to the finest and then polished it with Autosol. I only got the pack of 15 from Halfords for £6.

:y:

Deliberately left viewing this thread for a while thinking that when I came back it might look like a normal height car. I was wrong.

Haha, il think about lowering it. Im in no rush to do it. Speed bumps and bumps in the road in general are terrible. :(
