Joshy's Ed30 Build Thread
Joshy:
Got the intake on last night, although finished in the dark. Had a nightmare with those pesky cir-clamps :fighting: :fighting:
I've realised that the engine bay needs a really good clean, its filthy at the moment. I think a TTS cover is on the cards, they look real smart when painted. Other than that, i'm not sure what else to do to the engine bay!
More goodies arrived today as well. Gloss black badges for the front and rear.
I'm going to order the badge underlays for the rear (Klii Motorwerkes) but not sure if i want to colour match to the body, or go gloss black!

Gloss black badge fitted
I didn't realise how faded the lower grill is! Tempted to spray it, however i think gloss grills may be too much. Satin black may look nice!

Plastikote do gloss and matt finish rattle cans I cleaned the grill with hot water and fairy liquid beforehand

Their matte finish is good. I used it paint the bumper under the grille after i found out untidy it was. There should be some pictures a few posts up.
I'm sure i've seen someone on the forum painting their grilles with the Plastikote satin, cant quite remember who, but it did look good. Will order it from Amazon and get them sorted eventually.
