With the bumper off, I thought I'd give the fog lights a check over. Probably safe to say they're past it!
I got some arches which are all primered and ready (only have 'before' pics, 'after' to follow). Still need a front bumper, a bootlid and a nearside front quarter if anyone has them?
I saw this, not sure what it was, started to get dark and didn't get to have a proper look. Can someone confirm?
After much, much rain, I found this, and some mouldy seats! My guess would be the sunroof as its both sides, windows seals are ok as far as I know. Car cover over the sunroof! Back seats out, wires out.
When I get a minute il take the fronts out, and the carpet too as it will need a proper clean. Not sure if I'll put it back in as I think it weighs quite a bit, but I quite like the empty back and usable front half of the car. Who knows, I'll cross that bridge when I come to it, all depends on the state of it once it's clean and dried.
As said this car is purely for fun so it's not being built to a certain spec which some of you lot frown upon, but this car is not my entire life so just get over it! It will be built eventually and I will enjoy it hopefully more so than the vtr, which will be good enough for me.
Buying some brakes next week, which along with a bumper and fresh bulbs all round will fly through the mot.
I didn't like the lexus lights, so I took them off and took them apart to see if they looked any better black, just for shits and giggles.
I felt confident doing this as I've painted literally about 6 sets of headlights, but glass is a lot more resilient than plastic... ended up cracking one of the lenses right down the middle, but I'm not all that cut up as they were god awful anyway and I'm sure no one else would buy them these days.
Haven't attempted to fix the lens, not sure I've got the right stuff to do the job, not to get a seamless finish anyway. Maybe I could smoke the plastic lens to hide the crack once it's glued up.
Here they are pre breakage
The middle bottom is just a reflector, think everyone will agree im better off with some standard ones. Standard lens covers might fit, had another set of even worse lexus lights from an old vts and the lenses were interchangeable but are very, very grotty.
