What you did to your CRX today
Didn't see a similar thread - and they're handy for catching small updates!
Anyway still haven't got my car back from the bodyshop - so don't have much work to be getting on with. The rocker cover on the car is currently a nasty shade of red, so picked up a spare one and got it back to something a bit more acceptable! Have to say the paint stripper isn't half as effective as it used to be - I have vivid memories of my eyes feeling like they were melting in the past. Had to remove quote a bit of casting marks as well before spraying it. Very happy with the results. Results after first round of paint stripper - Two more rounds of paint stripper, a power hose, and some sanding - Used the dremel to remove the flashing and masked it all up - This paint goes on thick! Used a hairdryer to kick off the process and left it overnight All done. Will be a big improvement over whats there. |

Looks great. When are you expecting to get your back from the bodyshop?

Nice work can't beat a good clean wrinkle cover, I must get on to some other image hosting page. I think Photobucket ruined a lot of forums too

Not done today but I washed mine on Sunday and brought it to the new Cars and Coffee in Dunboyne.
Waste of time washing it as it pi$$ed rain after I got there but some lad papped me and put it on Facebook. Also thanks again Paul for the wind deflectors, first time out in public and I got asked about them a couple of times. |

Looks great - are they power fold mirrors? I read that you need different deflectors for power fold equipped cars?

Yeah they are power fold albeit when they feel like it!
C-Rex organised a group buy for these from somewhere in Asia early in the year and they stop just above the mirrors. I'll get a pic and post it in a couple of minutes. |
