Little Update

Been quite busy in the time that I have away from work.

I have managed to get two new front wings in my colour that are rust free for £100 for the two (I said I reckoned I could do this but no-one believed me!) and also got a rear bumper to replace my broken one.

I am mid way through fitting the wings, I have done one but the bolt holding the wing to the sill has snapped....

I am also starting to refurbish my wheels, there are some pics of the spare below....

The wheel looking brilliant. What's your technique for refurbishing them?

Your wheels look like mine, i have been thinking about painting the Toyota lettering red for a while now. Youve just convinced me, nice job .

They are very simple to refurbish.

Just sand down to smooth all over, then a couple of layers of primer.

Then a few coats of silver and then lacquer.

Thats it. I used a hairdryer in between coats to help it dry quicker.

Only four more to do!!

Thanks for the info. I really must do mine. I put some Wolfrace 15"s on mine, but think I actually prefer the original teardrops I took off. Just need to work on all 5 of them!
