You might be right with the handling dave you probably would notice it that much inless your a very seriouse driver , as for the sump you should see lower temps once we get our spal fans so you might be able to run it again once the better fans are on

The only problem with raising an engine is that you highen the center of gravity , more weight up top means less stability , probably not that noticable but id rather run a skid pan than a hockey puck

Cheers mate id rather mention it to body shop than come unstuck Ill deffo tell them just to be sure
-
Cheers bristol ill make sure i double check and triple check !! Its not a big fat marker , just a small thin line around each area that has a ding in there , there is not that many , i got told to leave the shiney paint on so the dints whee easier to spot on the car , they will be sanded out and the full car has been wiped with thinners and then about ten times with a proper body shop panel wipe , i was already slightly paranoid about contaminating the car with the silicone and sealents that was coming from the window seals and stuff like that
-
Iv done all my own prep to save money , started by stripping the car of all its components like mirrors bumpers slam panel bla bla bla Then iv marker penned all areas that needed attention ! Not that many but im leaving that to the body shop , iv removed all the glass my self with a mate whos a screen fitter ( lucky ) Then iv removed all the interior , and done all the tediouse work like stripping all the left over window sealant of the edges of the windows and iv also ground back most of the rust ready for the body shop to make a final finish on it Iv then prepped the full car getting rid of all the stone chips and blemishes from the paint going from around 120 grit in the worse places and the car now stands fully prepped at 320 waiting for a final prep and finish before it goes to high build This up to now has cost me about 70 quid for sand papers and panel wipes etc Im pretty confident that this would have cost best part of a grand in labour for a body shop to do Iv also had a quote of my mate who is painting the car and its come in at 460 and thats for the high build primer , a solvent dragon green base coat and a good quality glasurit laquer Just for your info the body shop is doing the last prep and arch rolling and a few other body mods and he is charging me between 600 to 800 quid and then wer lending the booth as we know the owner and my mate is painting it for free basically ( again very lucky ) and then i will be rebuilding the full car my self bar the screen

Cheers sean ill give the finer sand papers ago and see how they turn out , iv already got some gtech c4 so will give that a try and see how it comes out I didnt know if there was any other tecniques to cleaning them , and bew ones are 250 a side lol

As per title really My rear quarters are out and im wanting to get them as clean and new looking as possible The rubbers have slightly deteriorated over the years , up to now iv used the muc off super cleaner and a sponge/scourer to rub the rubbers wich has worked ok I was wanting a better finished and was thinking of using a lights sand paper to try even out the finish , like a wet/soapy 2000 Also iv got some poor boys natural look trim dressing but any others that may be as good or better ill give a go Any exparience shared would be most exellent
