changing parts

Post by meeky »

hey im changing the old orange front and side indicators for some nice clear ones should set the car off.

They come with chrome bulb but flash orange which will look better than seeing orange bulb.

should b done by weekend hopefully

It is by far easier and better to paint the engine bay without the engine in there. Would give you a chance to check the engine over aswell.

yeah it looks good once painted, i did it to mine when i had it out. I changed all the gaskets, the water pump, all the belts and i decoked the chambers when i had the engine out, well worth doing imo.
