[Mk2] [Turbo] project tidy up

Post by tarmac terrorist »

since the car is off the road at the moment i have decided to tidy up the small things on my car so here goes :thumleft:

space saver powder coated black
Image

paint had been peeled off in the spare wheel well over the years :(
Image

rubbed back surface rust

Image

painted hammerite smooth to protect

Image

then over the top i carpeted the area :thumleft:

Image
all bolts replaced with allen key bolts
Image

Image

next i decided that the grey carpet around the cover no longer looked right

Image

so i carpeted it black :thumleft:

Image

next i started cleaning the bonnet with spirit wipe to get rid of 18 years of dirt
Image

finished cleaning just needs polishing now :thumleft:

Image

found a pair of grommets to fill holes in the bonnet (BEFORE)

Image

(AFTER)

Image

crash hinge bolts (before)

Image

& after along with new wing bolts

Image

i have used these allen key bolts on lots of things ie wiring loom in frunk area etc :D

Image

wiper bolts

Image

headlamp

Image

boot hinge

Image

& domed nuts for shocks

Image
