There to much stuff down that side. With the water pump outlet, hose and sway bar it made it hard to get it to where it needed to go. Through the fender was just an easier solution.

Can't wait to get my car to the workshop this Arvo so keen .

In bad news my hardtop paint has started bubbling lol. Wtf hey. So I need to get that fixed

[charlie_91]

Sup guys,

Something happened this afternoon. After 6 months of sitting out the front of my house.. My car finally got on the tow truck to go the the workshop to finish it off and get ready for the tune

Big relief to know that its out of my hands Also spoke to Jason at Automotive Plus and he estimates it being tuned by the end of next week. Im stoked

Hopefully it all goes to plan On another note, i also raised the front a bit more just to even it out and give more clearance.

Lolololol thats actually awesome

No real updates with the car. This week was pretty much just ordering parts and figuring out how was will do stuff.

So this week should see a lot more work and hopefully a running car yay lol

[charlie_91]

update:

So progress is moving along with the car. Just been slow waiting on parts etc. But almost there. Plans are to have it finished by the 23rd tuned and everything ^^

Also in a argument with the panel shop that painted my car and it could turn ugly and ill have to take them to court. Main reason being is the paint on the hardtop is bubbling, rust is coming through the a pillar so atm its pretty frustrating finding all these problems.

But meh that will sort it self out sooner or later just excited to drive my car soon

Same place that did the engine bay? (ie: the one that the paint peeled off?)

Sounds like they've cheaped out on prep work.

Good luck with it man! Convenient date to have it finished by I'll keep a look out for it on the 24th.
