De-Vinyled at last (almost)

[Gazza14SR]

I have almost finished de-vinyling my sr. I think it looks 10times better than before and the paintowrk underneath is mint with no rust what so ever.

In the following pics you can see a slight colour difference between the 2 reds but since these pics were taken i've T-cut it and polished/waxed it and it looks almost spot on, obviously not exactly the same though.

Anyway from what you can see on the pics let us know what you think looks good/bad so i can alter afew things, i have afew options in my mind but would like to hear some others.

Thanks
Gaz

i used a hair drier to peel it off thinners 2 wipe off the glue bum strips came off with boilin water it works best on a hot day

You lot got it easy, im doing my car by the bump strips are held on by rivet and clips! Been grinding then off and using filler!

[Mark]

That looks sweet! Like the wheels!

[Gazza14SR]

the bump strips were held on by a plastic silver strips underneath them and some sort of glue. I pulled them off which left some spongy type glue to the car. I used my companies industrial air gun which got the vinyl of well easy, came off like one huge sticker.

The spongy stuff from the bump strips was also taken off by the air gun as it pretty much synged it and then i just rubbed it off.

Used thinners for the glue that was left on from the vinyl.

Doing it requires alot of patience and poorly swore thumbs!

epo, yeh that is the harness i got off ebay. its mint.
