BenLAST Posted January 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 (edited) 10 sheets used on the doors this afternoon, makes a noticeable difference! Rear quarters and roof are left, and some more to do on the doors. But so far so good! Edited January 8, 2010 by BenLAST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenLAST Posted January 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Stuck fine on most of the door, used a hair dryer in some parts to help it along the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenLAST Posted January 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Once it gets going, its fine. Just have to judge round-a-bouts and traffic lights a bit better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Green Giant Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 did you get the Arosa boot lid from Mark?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenLAST Posted January 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 (edited) Nope, got it off Paz. Mark supplied me with some hubcaps that look so good on the Mattigs. Currently running them on the standard steels so they looks a little different. Edited January 10, 2010 by BenLAST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenLAST Posted January 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 If anyone wants to get the glue stuff off the roof holding the cardboard up, put half a day aside. What a pain in the ass!Anyways, roof's dynomatted, fiberglassing starts tomorrow. Off to a vinyl wrapper on the weekend, something special in store!Pics tomorrow of dynomatting depending when i get home from work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Green Giant Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 that is cool! more stretch needed though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenLAST Posted January 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Which is why i have some 165's instead of 175's ready to go on Been told not to though, as it would be pretty ridiculous. But i'm sure the difference between 175/50 and 165/55 isn't much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Green Giant Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 I have 165/55s on my 8s! its perfect! cant really see it there! but its perfect IMO! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Green Giant Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 they show it best. not really got many pictures of it.hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenLAST Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Ahhh, they look far better than the 175's! Hopefully it will make the tread become fully covered by the arch now, so no more po-po trouble!Picked up the rat bonnet today, put it on so will get pics tomorrow.However, sound-system went caput on the way home! Battery or alternator has gone i think. Not sure which, will find out tomorrow if the car don't start! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcusgrant Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) What happened here?!Edit: to the seat lol Edited January 16, 2010 by marcusgrant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenLAST Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Haha, been asked that question many times!The glue that holds on the cardboard on the roof under the headliner, when using a heat gun some melted off and went everywhere. Plus, i was in my work overals, which are filfy. Steam clean and they'd be alright i guess, they are only temporary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dodgercannon Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Ratty update.Trip to the local audio place tomorrow to see whats up with the system as its not performing anymore! May leave with an expensive reciept, but a reciept that may push 150db.Good work.Whats going on with the system? it's gonna be alot of work to get another 4ish DB... the sound proofing probly given you a slight help.If you want 150 get those boxes out and wall it with those oz's!!!
