[AU2DY4]

The four day weekend is coming up soon, so I was guna paint some of the interior, and a bit in the engine bay then. Wouldn't mind a hand if you can spare it. Got all the design figured out.
What's next on the agenda for the ORSMXT?

[ORSM-XT]

oh and who knows what is going to happen next!!

[efghia2]

hey when you gunna put pics of the weekend up its justin (guy with ef)

[ORSM-XT]

Braided Hose Covers in this morn!




Will get more on my next weekend off. I'm still new to pulling the engine parts off and stuff, so i need to use the workshop at work!

[Trav199]

hey mate is it hard to remove rocker cover?? could ya give us a quick list of steps required.. cheers

[ORSM-XT]

i didnt do it myself, i got my guys in the workshop to do it for me.

[supahh]

hey
i like ur car
i think the wheels look funny that big, and the car looks like a 4wd still.. sorry
the interior looks awesome
i liked the grill when u had it all black, and i think the chrome strips would look
good if u painted them black too


i did a quick chop, colour coded side door moulds, lowered a bit more and the wheels
slightly smaller, and also the black strips and tinted tail lights

[ORSM-XT]

Sorry mate, I reckon the black strips look stupid without the black door moulds. I won't tint my tailights as I have got bf ones and I won't colour code just yet. But maybe one day

[supahh]

yeh sure, thats kay
just showing u what it would look like

[ORSM-XT]

Happy with the car, Engine bay and Interior is done (for now) and BF Lights are in

[[Tonko]]

Lookin good mate, nearly as good as mine :P
Thelast pics look like numurkah, how was it?

[ORSM-XT]

Numurkah was good, I was 100% happy with the car! And the club got best club display!

Hey mate,
Firstly, excellent work on the car. We've never met or spoken, I just stumbled on this showthread by accident :P I clicked the wrong one.
But I got wrappt, and started reading.

What you've done is pretty damn nice, espescially since you've done a lot of it yourself. I personally am still on the L's :( But I own a 2004 Ba XR6 in Blueprint.

I reckon the wheels are awesome, and set the whole car off.

I'd make my own thread if I could figure out how to post pics up here :P

Keep up the good work?


Cheers.

Cheerz Mate,

Hey man,
Nice looking piece of machinery youve got yourself, I especially like the grill. Looks real nice with the silver.
Ive got a soft spot for the b series xt's and your interior light and bf tail lights mods have given me ideas of simple changes I could make, so I should say thanks in that regard.

[ORSM-XT]

Thanks Mate,

Its all easy if you know what your doing

[Pat Riley]

Don't mean to sound harsh but I'm not really fan of any of the aftermarket mods, especially the rims, and lack of lowering, the interior paint, the black boot garnish, the painted calipers, and the tinted headlight covers. The interior paint will likely kill the re-sale value.

The good thing is that it shouldn't bother you as long as you like it that's the main thing. I do however, like the polished gear surround and will be having a look at the tech guide for this when I get a chance. I assumed these were plastic and so couldn't really be polished.

[TUF-640]

gee thats a bit harsh i'd say, let the man do what he wants to do - its unique. I think his car looks tops! most people dont seem to be into the whole big rims, scrape the ground lowering etc etc thing but i think it just makes the car work.

Keep up the good work man!

[TUF-640]

and a quick question, what paint did you use to paint your drum on the brakes? and how did you prime it so the rust wouldn't effect it?
Thanks in advance (i have to do mine as the rusted look is devaluing my 20s :P)

[ORSM-XT]

I just sanded the drums back and used brake caliper paint, pretty easy, thanks for the comments

[TUF-640]

ah no worries, i'll get around to it when i can be bothered haha. They dont require any sort of priming do they?
Thanks for the help mate

[[Tonko]]

I believe there have been mods since last update...

[ORSM-XT]

right here mate, also includes a bit of an argument ;) Thanks again for getting the system sorted for me mate, you've been good

[[Tonko]]

Who's arguing about what?

Cheerz,

So I shouldn't post then? OK.

I like the wheels, and the exterior of the car. Having been an obsessive car plastics interior painter in the past, I can understand your desire to paint everything...but (no comment).

Keep going though - it's your car, and it looks great from outside! Oh, and I wish mine looked half as good!

[Papa Smurf]

It was enjoyable looking at all your work matey, bloody good job.

Why are you selling up man?
