But I've just bought myself some new snow foam, purple wheel cleaner (for iron apparently?) And a new clay bar. All I need now is a day to myself and you'll be able to see the reflection from space

Thanks mate, I looked at it today and maybe ok anyway? Will see what develops. Ok, I have a plan to get car cleaned and shiny, pull out ding and have rubber moulding strips to fit and aim to get done then get decent pictures and put them on.Cheers Phil, yeah I did but got fuel tank cradle, diff mounts done at the same time. Supplied parts, and just paid labour. And paid at a discounted price, as my brother has his own garage. When you get it done, get a Oem seal. Think the make is Corteco.
Hi mate, Did you have the 'Sport ' etc decal stickers on the doors and remove them? I have them on mine and was wondering if I need to get them off before I put rubber moulding strips on or just go over them. The decals seem very stuck on so I think I could go over the top as the rubber would totally cover them. It looks like a distinct possibility that the paint will come off with the stickers as well. Hope all goodLooks good Phil, I've got door mouldings too. But they were delivered just wrapped in bubble wrap and tape. So all twisted and bent. Currently clamped up in the garage. Hopefully fit them soon.
Sorry to hear about your mouldings. I got mine from Difflock in Devon for £53 after looking for ages at different sites. They all seemed ridiculously expensive but one night I just thought sod it and got them. Came with a free piece of wood to keep them straight and then to mend a fence perhaps or other similar wood based thing. Is the method to get the decals off heating them up? With a hairdryer or something? I was thinking spirits or something. Cheers mareAlright mate, no Mines a E. So no decals. Personally I'd warm them up and remove them. Just checked my door mountings, only any good for the bin. Been clamped up for two weeks but like boomerangs. So that was a waste of money.
Sport Freelander's didn't get the side bump strips.
The decals can be removed by a hair dryer or similar
Thanks a lot mateSport Freelander's didn't get the side bump strips.

Thanks a lot appreciate the advice mateThat's how they should be sent. I'm not going to bother now. Use white spirits after to remove residue, and clean where the rubbing strips are going on.
What he said.......just gentle warming so you don't damage the paint, and take your time.
Today have finally mounted rubber side mouldings as have cleaned most of the mud off and taken decals off the doors. Also changed oil and filter. Put in picture of bash plate as well. Whole car needs a good polish now but I have just about done everything I planned too for now. Happy days
Oi! Best cooks in the world!Nice pics mate, I hate that place lol......and I definitely wouldn't eat sandwiches from a Army cook house lol.....if you can call them sandwiches haha.
