Ke36 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 so picked myself up a new daily after my fiat finally gave up the ghost of 5 years hard running and no maintenace picked it up cheap cheap and have always been a fan of them in a funny way (love the squared off rear arch), plus seeing this one on ronals made me seriously consider one for a lols daily plan is repaint front bumper, slam and widened steels so am after some 4x100 14s or 15s to widen and a set of springs if anyone knows of anything keen on lime green steels but think not best match with the red paint? open to suggestions and just general mocking of my choice of car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drtdvl Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Alaric from Driven Performance (owner) had one (not sure if he still has it) as a race car and did a fair bit of work to it. If you want some parts or information he would be the person to talk to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taistorm Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Alaric from Driven Performance (owner) had one (not sure if he still has it) as a race car and did a fair bit of work to it. If you want some parts or information he would be the person to talk to. Haha yea i'm pretty sure he still has it. He was my highschool form teacher a few years ago, pretty much was the mantis. when i talked to him towards the end of last year he said hes doing a new charade project.. g12 4wd Charade with a 4g63t or 4g93t (cant remember). would be a hellova rocket ! Edit: spoke to Al at the 4 and rotas and he has sold his charade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rx30 Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Before you paint that bumper i'd recommend using a heat gun on it, turns it black again and free!. Worked on my Mira, there is a fine line between black and melting though and takes some patience. Sweet Daihatsu too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 also linseed oil, or if you're in a flatting situation, someone else's peanut butter are both good alternatives for re-blackening. no joker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 You can buy this amazing stuff called bumper bar black. I guarantee you it will work better than anything else mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Nah it's gone all gay / probably had a bad touch up. Also has a different colour drivers door. If I ever sell it I will probably give it a quick spray over in beige or silver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truenotch Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Brake fluid is the key - no shit. Cunts used to buff paint with that shit in the '70s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
