New Cusco Brace Fitted.. 17/10/12
As you all know I bought a rear Cusco strut brace recently... and went about fitting it to the back...
I was gona cut a big chunk out of the plastics but then the bro said just cut a little bit off and have them fit under it and make it look nice and neat and I agreed...
So with my sharpie maker I went marking out were to cut…
The plastic as is before marking out the cut points
Putting the Cusco bracket on the plastic for marking it out
Marking it out now
All marked up for cutting
Taking the plastics out of the car so I can get a good cut on them
The whole rear stripped out, twas a bastard and I thought I broke one the plastic bits but I didn’t thank fuck
All the bits in me room for storage... lol
I don’t have pics of the cut plastics as I thought I took them. Oh well. Just to tell ya’s..The plastics were a pain in the hole to cut.. Time consuming as I had cut them and thought it was grand. But then it wouldn’t fit rite when I tried to put them back on as they were hitting off the Cusco bracket.. so I then had to mark a tiny bit more for cutting then file it back. Then test fit it again.. This was repeated a good few times on both plastics.. Till it was got rite..lol
Just cable tying the audio leads for the rear speakers up. Looks nice and neat now
I finally got the plastics cut rite and fitted to the car and it’s Nice and neat looking now..imo..
All the plastics were put back and seats too. I’m happy with the way things came out and big thumbs up for me brother for helping me out on it too... and here is what she looks like now all finished up..
