April is here and brought in snow, as if there wasn't enough already this year. Although my car is not the lowest (I can fit the tip of my shoe under the splitter) it can be challenging in these conditions Yes, that green plug is there to keep my baby warm during cold nights

Over the easter weekend came around to tackle the debadge and to do some touch up painting on the scoop and some interior.
The debadge worked like a charm with the how to guide Smile

The badge is still there, along with a dirty car Smile

The trick with loads of water and the hairdryer. Used water that was mixed with dishwash detergant, but the easiest way was really to heat up the glue that remained on the car once the badge was removed and just pull it off.

And the end result

Will put some more pics up once the weather is better and can get the car washed properly. No use doing it now, as it will look within days the same.

Found it weird, that the scoop that I sprayed went a bit bad after the first time I got it washed. Had done 3 coats of primer, 4 coats of colour and 4 coats of lacker and still this result So did some touch-up painting and shot it this time in high gloss black. Came out nicely

looking good mate, if your useing spray cans to paint your parts thats why there going dull spraycans always do its a waste of time if your looking for a lasting finish

All sprayed parts have been done with a spraycan, but this time around did not have a problem after going through the car wash. Don't know why it happend, talked to someone who paints cars for a living and he could not explain it either...

Its basically a engine heater, so when you start the car, its not a "cold" start. During the winter when temperatures drop to -30 and more, this will also ensure that your car starts

Finally got my internet connection back! Last weekend I decided to give my car a proper wash and a nice shine Gave it a go and machine-polished the car. First with 5000 grid, then with 10000 grid. Here the car after a good wash: Some 4 hours later, it was getting late, but the results speak for themselves
