The Red FRP

Help Support ProjectPuma:
Found some more trim bodges on the car! :roll:
Screws missing out of headlamps.
Rear bench actually had no screws in at all, just the pull-release clips.
Front grill clip snapped.
Bumper grill not fixed in place, will have to remove bumper to fix this!
Have fixed all of the above by using bits off my old Puma (apart from the bottom one).
I also found 2x of these plugs located behind the front grill, any idea what they should be plugged into?
Just finished giving the whole thing a good clean inside & out, will have to get proper photos tomorrow but here's some I snapped before it got dark, also recovered the boot lining (like I did on the old one) only this time in red... obviously! :lol:
and to finish.. some random arty photo I knocked up in Fireworks whilst typing this post out!

@ Clarkie
With a bit of care, the cap comes off easy enough, just don't go mental at it!
If you're doing it in carbon, best tip I would give is to spray the underside black / grey first so it doesn't look stupid when you open it up.
Those handle bits are easy enough to do, nightmare to put back on the car though!
I bought 4x sheets this size and so far have done both handles, both wing mirror trims and the petrol cap and still have a full sheet spare, not bad for the price really!

See you around half 6 ish! :twisted:
Just about to head over to Blackburn to see a bodyshop friend about getting it all blown over to get the colours to match again, might look at getting a metalic on it this time though rather than a solid red, we shall see.
Anyone have any suggestions for nice reds?
I know Audi do the "laser red" but IIRC that's just a solid colour.
Will also price up a brilliant white at the same time! :roll:

So, quick re-cap of things that need doing:
Fit 30mm rear axel spacers.
Finish trimming interior in red fabric.
Re-spray back of rear seat bench (black).
Refurb wheels (will do this whilst car is in the body shop).
Red LED conversion (in touch with El Dude at the mo).
Coolant / engine hoses if funds permit, may wait till after Xmas.
