Its going to My mates paintshop next weekend so he can colour in the outside and boot floor area but I'm not sure if i should rattle can the engine bay or get him to paint it properly. :confused:
We fabricated the aluminuim hinges by getting some 4mm and some 5/8 (16mm) aluminium bar. I had the bar turned into barrels on the lathe at work 25mm in length with a 8mm hole in the middle. We then cut and filed the plate to match the contour of the door lines and drilled four 5mm holes in the hinge and through the door skin, then tapped the hinges to M6.using some M6x20mm button head stainless bolts, they were threaded through the hinge and the head was smeared with epoxy glue so they wont wind back out. the holes in the door skin were enlarged to 10mm so there is movement to adjust the door. we then copied the hole pattern on another piece of aluminium to go on the inside of the door. which we tigthened up using M6 washers and nyloc nuts.
Anybody needs pic see the post above thanks Gareth
