Nice work Ian. Bet those Tom's skirts would have been fine, had they not been taken out of the mould early.

Can't beat a fresh pair 'o sills on a MK2.

Sadly not even then. Would have had to cut rear vent part of and extended up a inch or so.

Hey anybody wants then and wants to play cover postage and yours lol.

I'd say no on the abflug splitter man, they are massive and look really odd without the rest of the kit, in fact, the whole abflug kit looks weird without the arches
Also, it's not that nice a splitter, there's loads of options that are nicer, I only fitted it as I wanted the complete kit!!
Car's coming along nicely though!!!

[gerbil1028]

Ha ha I quite like the splitter the only part I don't like is it stirring high up on sides of bumper looking halfords stuck on.

May have a toms rear bumper and abflug front splitter for sale soon then. Choices choices.

it's deceptively big man, some pics I have of the front of my car I'm really not keen haha, personal preference and all that though, don't let anyone make up your mind for you

Looking great man!!! As for front splitters, the greddy ones really suit black Mr2s

[gerbil1028]

First priority now if finding leman money gulp and then setting up boost controller. Anybody near me who's really good at it wanna help me out ? Lol

[jimGTS]

woah!

rarely see a toms wing with rev1/2 lights, looks beasty!


i would defo paint the side strips and the center panel to bring it to a more modern look.

it really transforms the early cars.

[gerbil1028]

Side panels when time allows as getting in road first job.


Will never do smooth panel as couldn't live with out my el glow mr2 badge lol.

[gerbil1028]

Also genuine rev1-2 toms spoiler lots of work filling holes but so worth it.

[alan_uk]

i was refering to painting the rev1/2 center panel

i also had an el glow badge at one point on my very first mr2

(and painted the strips and panel)

[gerbil1028]

Oh I like that Jim. Will place on my to do list.

Got a odd judder and low speed manovering to sort at moment.

All new coilovers ball joints droplinks polybushed.

Passed mot and told mate to be super picky so assuming that's all good I'm.wondering if flat spo on tyre as there the ones it sat still on for 4-6 years on a concrete drive.

Sound likely ????

Any way to test ??

[jimGTS]

jack it up, spin by hand and feel for any lumps/deviations after a drive?
so tyre is warm and been in use.

just throwing out ideas.
