No worries, it's all done now and working again! I did break the top strip though :(

I got a quote from a guy in Willow Bridge Marina - it's not far from Fenny Stratford but I don't know what the place is called. I've decided to hold fire on the re spray as I want to take it to Lone Pine Garage in Warrington (just the other side of Olney) the guy there (Mike) is awesome with a spray gun. He does work for Aston Works Service in Newport. It's going to cost me more but I figured if I'm going to get it done I may as well do it properly. These are my new wheels -BBS RXII "15 ET45 They need refurbing so I've broken them down: I'm going to polish the rims myself and get the centres powder coated black - what do you think? I'm going to run 20mm spacers up front and 30mm at the rear - the ET is quite high and they're only 6J Anyone know a decent powder coater in MK????

just one thing before I try this myself - how do i get the interior top strips off without breaking them?

Perfect!! Just what I was looking for as my passenger door has just done this. I look forward to having a go at it tomorrow - the guide really helps.

http://[/url] Coilovers done!! :clap:

Thanks to fairman7 - the grille is just as described! Shame the courier seems to have been a bit heavy handed with it. Still nothing some araldite can't sort out. Very speedy delivery!

Ok I've got a few more pictures of my new pride and joy (in the making) Views and opinons wlecome - you will see from the photo's that she needs painting and I've just had a quote for a full respray for £1,000 which I didn't think was too bad - what do you think? The interior is pretty clean and even the drivers seat has escaped any tears! It's going to take me a while to get it fully sorted but I think a set of Lenso BSX with black centres, and a set of colivers will look pretty sweet. I'm having some colour coding doen with the respray too - door handles, washer jets and removing the bump strips.

Come on folks - suely there is more interest than just 3 people?

Its got 152K on the clock - but has done well considering the mileage. It has a fully black interior that is pretty much untouched, even the drivers bolster is in one piece!

This is my latest acquisition 1995 M 2.0 16V Purple I have had 2 Rado's in the past; one G reg 1.8 16V and one H reg 1.8 16V The first one got nicked :bad-words: I've regretted selling the second one ever since it left my ownership in 2000 I picked this one up about 3 weeks ago for £500 notes, and to be honest I'm really pleased with her. There are a few marks on her here and there and I think a full resrpay is probably the best way to attack this. I've had a quote for doing both the bumpers and n/s/f wing and it came to £500 - I was quite surprised by this :gag: so figured that if I'm going to do it I may as well do it properly and get the whole car done. She's compeltely standard at the moment :sleeping: but I have a few things planned: 1. Coilovers 2. Exhaust 3. Wheels (BBS Splits) 4. Respray (same colour) 5. HID Lights (mine are like candles in jam jars!!) 6. Lupo wiper conversion I am pleased that everything is working including the tilt and slide roof and rear spoiler (although the spoiler didn't work when I picked her up due to a detached boot popper rattling around and detaching the spoiler connector) and well chuffed to be back in the Rado fold after nearly 10 years. I'll keep you posted with any updates and will hopefully have something that looks half respectable for the show season.

Great price and looks super easy to fit! :D If you get the interest to buy 10 kits I am definitely in - i will come and collect as I only live down the road. I wouldn't mind taking a butchers at yours when I pick the kit up, just to get a better feel for fitment. Ben
