Time for another small update, after prepping the inside and engine bay i needed to get it covered as i had exposed metal here and there. So i had my first ever attempt with an air gun while i lightly covered the said area's with some etch primer. The old boy that helps out here had a quick squirt with the gun, told me what the different adjustments did then ran away lol lol lol
Needless to say for a first attempt and no clue at all it went on ok as it was effectively just a blinding, only had 2 small area's run where i tried to apply it from awkward angles, which i knew at the time was wrong but tried it anyway. Cant learn without making mistakes imo.
The extraction unit seems to be working well (all be it i may need a new fan by time i have finished)

Engine bay came out the best which is odd as i thought it would be the hardest bit

And the inside came out ok, one b pillar had a couple of runs etc, but no biggie as it is only a dusting before the high build primer goes on.

Now thats put to bed i will get 90% of the outside ready and etch prime that before maybe risking the ugly job of priming it properly :wtf: As said i hate to think what the outcome is going to be but sure is some crack trying to find out and seeing if i have the patience for it lol lol lol
**** me i didn't think that there would be that much paint on the fan just after spraying that amount! frightening eh..
Looks good mate, I'm going to be spraying my mates engine bay in his 1.6 8v turbo, Ive not done it before on a car,but reckon it cant be much harder then spraying anything els. lol
Scott
Agree on the fan. i was shocked to, good job i paid out for a proper mask before i started also :eek:, couldnt comment on spraying, only things i have sprayed in the past is random wild flowers when i have stopped at the side of the road for a pish
looks like your cracking on!what are you doing about the wide track kit?as iirc the last time i spoke to you(when i came to pick the engine up)you were going to try find a car from the vauxhall range that you could use the parts from?
For the front surely corsa stuff bolts on? 20mm wider, if what I've heard is true....
Or are you just using dirty wide wheels instead?
Sorry that grill hasn't been delivered yet, Chris was out when I was passing and I couldn't really hang about. I was on a tight time schedule. Will try and do it soon tho. :thumb:
ash, no probs mate, when you can
As regards the wide track/dirty wide wheels i'm still not fully fully sure, i shall continue with the tedious stuff and just mull it over/ do abit more research as each option i have in mind may have hidden draw backs.
Looking good
Looking good dude. Corsa stuff itsnt that much wider tho, the shafts are only a bit to long.
