haha yeah man, shiney shiney, soon to be even shinier!!
Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - Matt - 02-05-2012
That would be awesome, I have a feeling I measure the whole thing instead of just the button haha.
What shiney bits ........
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - samass - 02-05-2012
haha knobber! i've a spare one, i'll measure that. spot on fit
haha nothing too shiney really, some fresh fanny mould
, courtesy of R45_ODV gunna be smooth, and black. gloss or satin, i have yet to decide..
Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - Matt - 02-05-2012
Inlet? Really need to get mine off to paint but cba haha
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - samass - 02-05-2012
yup. not putting it on for a while, coursework deadlines on friday (i'm at uni now, 'working' lol) then exams at the end of may. thinking of having it ready to do both manifolds and exhaust same time as we do yours. then BOOM POWAAAAHHHHHHH
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - spike2002 - 02-05-2012

Might sand it while on the car. And remove next week. Spray it in between coats on the car next week
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - samass - 02-05-2012
true dat bruv.
gunna bring it into uni next week to use the parts washer, then file all the casting marks off, then get busy with ze aerozols
why not just whip it off before you do the first coat? then you can do it properly between coats,
Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - Matt - 02-05-2012
Lol I meant I would whip it off, just going to sand it while it's on the car as I can do that on breaks at work
it will come off for paint lol
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - samass - 02-05-2012
haha yeah i got that, but you'll make one hell of a mess of your bay, won't you? can get it all properly degreased and everything too that way
Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - Matt - 02-05-2012
Hmmm seems you would be correct there. May have to just wait. Blitz the car during the day. Then strip the front end down, sand de grease and paint in the eve, then put it back together the next day haha
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - samass - 02-05-2012
sounds good! or you could even put the xsi inlet back on to keep it drive able in the mean time, like me, cuz i'm aweome
Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - Matt - 02-05-2012
I destroyed my xsi one haha it's totally dead
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - samass - 02-05-2012
haha gutted. i've a spare, want it?
Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - Matt - 02-05-2012
Hmm may do. But make just take the car off the road for a day or two while I do it. Would be easier haha
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - samass - 02-05-2012
haha true, and cheaper. savings on petrol too haha
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - samass - 07-05-2012
been getting dirty today, started cleaning up the hubs i got from jdmsport, turns out one bearing is f*cked, and has the strut pinch bolt seized in...
but, importantly, after and hour or so of heating till red, then battering witha club hammer, the N/S one is almost good to go, just need to drill and tap the ABS sensor bolt hole and then wire brush it and hammerite it. might take the other hub into uni and twat a new bearing in, if i can be arsed/can afford it. as long as the horrendous bearing noise from the left is sorted, ill be happy ish.
also stripped down the gti inlet ive got and started attacking it, gunna smooth off all the casting marks then paint it black. gunna do more with the dremel tomorrow me thinks.
no pics, phone died. maybe tomorrow
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - spike2002 - 07-05-2012
Good progress
yh ive had 3 hubs off them now and atleast one has a fecked wheel bearing other a cut abs sensor :/ decided on the colour for the fanny mould yet?
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - samass - 07-05-2012
yeah one is spot on, but the other is like stirring coal. annoying. all the abs sensors were intact, ish, but i tried to unbolts them, the bolts just crumbled. the hubs look like they've done about 300 000 miles
hock:took lots of heat to get the pinch bolts out, and then BFO hammer too. PITA. oh yeah, one of the disc bolts is snapped off too, luckily one is still there, and they arent vital anyway.
probably gunna be satin black, dont think i'd be bothered to get a good enough shine for gloss, plus, satin looks a bit more oem
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - spike2002 - 07-05-2012
Satin FTW and yes 300,000 miles looks bwt rite haha im gone get new bearings pressd in to then clean and paint them up so i know they are good then put them on the car
as and when they are ready just hope the new bearings are good as i replaced them in my hubs and they only lasted me 6 months and are shot again 
not good
Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - Matt - 07-05-2012
Satin FTMFW
Re: Sam's '98 XSi - Pugly - samass - 07-05-2012
damn that isnt good! where did you get the bearings from? ill be sure to avoid! think ill leave new bearings for now, maybe hang onto my old hubs and get some pressed in at a later date...
hmmm yeah im think that also, satin is so full of win! plus i already have like five cans of the stuff lying around
