My names Ed, and I live in Barcelona, Spain. I am from the Republic of Ireland. I've been living here for 13 years. In that time I've had a number of cars.
First one I got a year after arrival was a '93 Prelude 2.2 vtec. After that I got a '00 BMW 318ci. I sold that to get back into university. So now I've got this 1996 GT. Its covered in dents and scrapes. Pretty tired looking. I want to make it look like new, improve it where I can and try to keep it as standard as possible. I'll be painting it black, and keeping the wheels as they are, just tarting them up a bit. All of this depends on my finances of course, so it'll be a slow process. Patience will be required. Lots of patience. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This post has been edited by Edser: Jul 21, 2022 - 5:58 PM -------------------- ![]() |

Thanks guys!
![]() More stuff arrived today. ![]() I got this double DIN from China. I hope it doesn't break immediately. It has a reversing camera included. nice. I also got these SSIII splitters and power mirrors from Hong Kong from New Stars. ![]() The other day I got to work on repairing the tab on one of the rear splitters. I haven't read up on how people repair these things, but I think that a flexible ABS repair product like Ceys would do it. I drilled some deep holes in the end of the damaged area and screwed in some screws. The idea is that the screws will hold the end of the tab on. ![]() ![]() The stuff is easy to use, its two components mixed together in your hands and then can be applied to the damaged area, covering the screws. ![]() Later when it hardens it can be sanded into shape. ![]() ![]() ![]() I attacked it with my Dremel and a sanding bit, and finished the sanding by hand. The result is quite flexible, though I'm not sure how strong it is as I didn't want to pull at it. I'll paint it and it should look ok. ![]() -------------------- ![]() |
