Thank you for the comments, was starting to Think I had a monolouge here, hehe


The lights you gan get from ECS here on the forum. And beleive me, they realy look 100 times better in real Life, pictures I took didnīt do them right.


Update on the Project:
SunCoast have now shipped my GT3 MK1 side rockers


My rims has been away for a while, but I spoke to the workshop and they are almost done. Maybe next week I will get them back.


I will Clean the Engine this weekend. Then I have to wait patiently for the parts to arrive, so I can start assemble the car.

 

Your car is really coming along great. What are you using to clean the wheel wells and such. I plan to do this level of detailing as well when I get my car back. Having the AOS done now and it's taking forever. Plus the weather is so crappy and this would be a great time for me to do all the detailing like you. Can't do any much more on the wifes Infiniti, and the Land Rover I never detail it or anything. It loves mud and just acts up when I clean it, lol. Thanks for the info about the LED lights. I will order them, they look good. Did you have to do any wiring, or are they plug and play?

 

Did you use any special cleaning product for your wheel wells or just good old fashion elbow grease, water and a brush? Looks great! Also what do the interior LED's do for you? Brighter at night when door opens or? I noticed driving at night the center console and shifter area is very dark. Is there a mini LED light that lights that area or something when driving?

 

The leds are a good DIY. Plug and play. Use plastic Tools when you pic out the old lights, and you wont scrath anything.


Well for the cleaning I did this:


1. Place a plasticbag over the brakes


2. Unsrew the plasticfenders inside the wheelwells (more dirt will now apear magicly)


3. Brush off as much dry dirt as you can with a rimbrush


4. Then use degreasing (a good one!) and soak down the entire wheelwell


5. Use som more degrasing and soak some more, while you have a beer


6. Spray with high preasure to Clean as much as you can (if you dont have high presuare, use a normal hose and spray)


7. Use mediumhotwater with some good carcleanersoap in it and start to brush the wheelwell and surrounding, here I used a dishbrush - worked liked a charm, and you could Clean every Little twist


8. The will be some places where the dirt is realy hard, spray with degreaser (good one!) directly on that spot and Clean direct with the brush (no water)


9. Use a spunch with some freash new water with good carcleanersoap in it, and start cleaning the well wells as you normaly wash the car


10. Use the waterhose to wash all the soap off


11. Let it dry


12. Clean the plastic, you might need to scrup it, dont worry, you can restore it!


13. Spray the plastic with a good Product to restore the fine black Surface


14. Mount the plastic back on


15. Have Another beer, and anjoy the result






Well, the Products I used the normal Products you can buy at the local dealer, but not the cheap ones, the good ones. But the cleaningprocess was 80% good old scrubbing with water and brush


Well, no minilights while I am driving. As you say, its dark. I am thinking off mouting leds where you ceep your feet to lighting things up a bit. The leds only improve the lights you allready have, and make it more of a "2014 feeling" when you open the doors.

 

Today theese beauties arrived!


Also made the final decision, and ordered the IPD plenum and VR tuning from Vivid Racing, Think it would go great together with my evoms cai.


To bad its like 0 degress here and snow for a couple of more months

 

Enjoying this thread! Keep up the good work - you did well on the inner fenders!

Thx Mark!


Ok, so some new things has arrived.


I got my black log bolts from ECS TUNING (https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...set-today.html) realy fast shipping and good guys to deal with. There was one log bolt missing in the package and 15 minutes after I emailed them, a new one was one the way to me - super great service


I also got my new belt, 911 black logo and non-smoker kit from the local porschedealer.

 

Here are som Before and after pics with the logo. What do you guys Think?


Hit or miss?


I also decided to change the belt, while I was in the garage. Wasnt to tricky.


Can you guess wich one is the new on?.....


I had to draw the belts way in the engineroom Before I could replace it. Otherwhise I Think I never would have got the belt in the right Place - feel free to use my super advanced drawing if someone also are thinking to change there belt

 

Keep them posts coming. And PROPS to Pelican Parts, got my aero kit from you guys a few months ago for a great price. And it looks better than I hoped, since the wife even noticed. LoL

 

Thanks for the props and glad the aero kit was a hit!

Looks awesome - great job!

 

Today I spent several hours on the base at the auto craft shop. I took all of the wheels off, cleaned the wheel wells, calipers, some other underside plastics and more. I also took all the lug bolts and put them to a wire wheel brush. Initially I bought some paint. I was going to clean them, then paint. After putting them to the brush they came out really good so I'll be taking the paint back to get my $7.95 (lunch money) lol. Here's a few before and after pics. What do you think?

 

Coat the bolts with something ! They rust right away... I did the same thing. I was all happy, it looked good for a day then boom all of them rusted...

 

Thx!!




Looks great! I had the same problem with the lug bolts, decided to order new zink coated black ones, since I was going with new black rims.


Anyway, keep up the good work


Some update on the Project:


UPS tracking says that my new sideskirts will arrive tomorrow


Then its of to the paintshop with the new GT3 front and the new GT3 sideskirts.


I also have got a message from Vivid that the plenum is shipped, eta is next friday

Looking forward to seeing your updates. While I was working on the lug bolts someone at the shop also mentioned to me that I should coat the bolts with something. I will check around today. Thanks all!
