Brad do Vinneys do change over bars or purchase only

[hanra]

These bars were bought outright. I believe I paid a bit extra to do that. But it saved me paying freight down and back. Id gladly donate the 3 bars I currently have back to Vinneys so that he can bring them back to life for someone else, but the freight costs are just to high....

Sorry brad i didnt explain im talking about your interior trim seats and door trims
cheers gene.

[hanra]

Ah right. I had the seats trimmed locally, the same local company also made up my door tops using templates sent from Boomfunk. Boomfunk also supplied my roof lining, parcel tray and kick panels. Moulded carpet is from Knox Auto Carpet.

I am currently awaiting on the door trims to arrive from Cools Auto Trim.

Cool thanks for that wrote it down
cheers

[hanra]

Thats exactly right... I would be happy to pay an extra few bucks per item to know that it was going to be correct and I wouldnt have to find the time to re-pack it, drive across town to a post office, wait in line for 10mins to re-post the incorrect items back.... Not to mention time wasted in the shed starting a job only to pack it up until the right parts arrive.

Fingers crossed my new door trims arrive on Friday, that will keep me busy over the weekend!!!

Would be nice to get my brake prop valve back soon to.... They have had it for 2 weeks...it's a project car... Your not in a hurry are you????

In the meantime.... Playing with black goo... And plastic??? Sealing up my doors. So messy...

[hanra]

Sweet. Door trims arrived today.

Ordered some new trim clips and sockets... Went to pick em up from the post office this arv but.... Seems they are lost in the post.... Hopefully they show up tomorrow... Then I can have a go at fitting the trims up. Why is everything so hard?

Why is everything so hard?

If it was easy everyone would do it and then it'd be nothing special. It seems to be more satisfying in hindsight than when you're actually doing the job...!

Righteo, found my lost parcel thanks to the useless sender putting the incorrect address on it. Man.... It's a default eBay address. Everything else gets here ok.... PO BOX Cairns.....

Lucky it even made here and didn't get sent back.

Door trims are on. Nice work Cools Auto Trim.

Interior is 100% finished.

Great job mate!

[hanra]

Thanks a lot guys. That's a bloody good idea actually!!!! Might just do that tomorrow arv once I get the proportioning valve back in an the brakes re-bled.

I was expecting the valve to be done free of charge as I had just paid to have it overhauled. But the fella hit me $50.

Brad is that carpet colour buckskin or something else
it is a great combo i must admit

[hanra]

Drink up Dave!!!!!! Enjoy mate.

Yep, the carpet is Buckskin from Knox. -60Y should in fact have Covert carpet but I couldn't find that anywhere..... The parcel tray and horseshoe sections of the door trims are Covert.

[hanra]

So now the door trims are all on, the interior is basically 100% finished. Im going to use the left over carpet to make up some F/R floor mats.





Bumpers are all fitted but will be coming back off along with the spoiler when it gets detailed in 2 weeks time.







Still have to get tailpipes done....The ones I bought from Autoline dont fit.... surprise surprise..
