The added challenge was that you have to cut down the seems where the trim meets the actually grills. In fact it was a massive turd to do, both times (don't ask!!)

(and experienced with the last one...). In reality it was pretty easy and oddly satisfying. Which means I'm either getting better at this or the whole thing has broken my mind I use a bit of car wax on it that keeps it clean and doesn't smudge easily. 8 is off the road at the moment, as I have plans to do some preventative maintenance over the autumn and winter. Even great examples can't avoid the effects of time, so these little bits will keep it youthful for years to come 
It's probably well known by now that I dislike stickers, badges, or just anything that distracts from the clean lines of cars. So inevitably this one had to go. This M235i is staying on the back though, that I feel needs to stay.
I've spent far too much time with a hairdryer in my hand this last week! Took less than 30 seconds to heat it to the point where it easily came off, leaving minimal residue.

What can I say. I'm a sucker for a MK2. It currently has something small in it, which I've essentially been the caretaker of. That's going back to its old home soon though. Plus, the right opportunity came up at the right time. Read about your 2GR plans too, sounds pretty epic! 
Just gonna enjoy the mr2 for what it is this year, get a load of maintaining done, it's starting to suffer some rust underneath!Magic Beans wrote:

(Mule X) is now home. Bit of a saga due to a slipping clutch (now suspected as being the slave cylinder), which took the wind out of my new car sails. It'll be back on the road in a few weeks though. Along with a few shots, the usual meandering story and current plans for the car. It's good to have an SW20 back in my life!
