I got round to fitting the Blitz Boost Controller today, froze my hands off doing it with this horrible cold weather!!

Here are some pictures of it fitted hope ya all like!!!

Oh and I forgot to put this up, I bought a second hand Varis Front Bumper off 'gglavin' (Thanks Ger! )

Needs a bit of work so I'l need to get stuck into it....:

Bolt hole is missing where it attaches to the wing so that needs sorting:

Thats all for now chaps, thanks for looking and look forward to your comments.

There has been a slight bit of rust and a dent on the drivers side sill of my car ever since I bought it, now I wanna get it sorted while its off the road.

Can anyone tell me how to go about it? I've never worked with rust before so I dont know where to start.

Here are some pics anyway...

Thanks for the help
John

 

[Nwimie]

ive got exact same problem but my dent is bigger i was thinking give it rust treatment then fibreglass the hole over and spray?

 

[clarkytrd]

Few more parts have arrived....:

Gonna be undersealing the whole car including arches so I removed the fuel tank to give it a lick of paint before I get cracking with the undersealing. Gave the engine mounts a good clean and a touch of hammerite! Here are some pictures of what I've done so far:

AFTER:

Engine mounts with new Powerflex Bushes:
