Mr_Rossy 0 Posted August 20, 2015 (edited) I've had this Storm for over 2 yrs now and with 96k on the clock and a lovely strong engine I decided I could no longer live with the bumps and scraps on the body hence a full body renovation was in order. New plate on and looking sweet Wheels done same colour Wheel and trim fitted Headliner, sun visors, trim, sunroof seals / parts and switches done in black (Sorry about photo) Done and ready to take home in the rain .... Just need to colour the rear lights in red for sure (oh and put the storm badge back on ;) Loved driving the sweet v6 home, really missed her. Drove her to work this morning and seem to have "Lost" 1x BBS RS301 Centre cap between 18:10 last night and 6:30a.m this morning : (((((( Edited August 20, 2015 by Mr_Rossy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

easypops 8 Posted August 20, 2015 Very nice indeed, did you remove the back windows? Easy enough to do/replace? Any more pics of the headlining etc :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr_Rossy 0 Posted August 20, 2015 (edited) Very nice indeed, did you remove the back windows? Easy enough to do/replace? Any more pics of the headlining etc :) Yeah took all the side windows out but left front and rear as these are bonded. The sides are easy. Will take a few better photos at the weekend when we might have some sun! Head liners are hard things to photograph though. I used Southwest Trimmers in Calne, Approx. £125 inc. dying the sunroof seal but the only problem is that the light / sun roof switch is only available on Ebay at around £100 as it needs to come out of a rare MK3.

BILLCOR 1 Posted August 20, 2015 (edited) Nice job, very satisfying having fresh paint on a older car, getting rid of all the little annoying bits you notice every time you wash it. Not quite so keen on the RS centres, kind of steals the fire of the body work, but that's just my opinion :thumbleft: Meant to say, love the plate :thumbleft: Edited August 20, 2015 by BILLCOR Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
