looking great, my first 5 was a lovely white beauty with pretty fresh paint.. just a shame the rust prep was shocking and it all started to creep through after a year or so..
really temps my to give my 5 a blow over, its pretty solid after all its welding so a paint job with make it last a good few years.. if you get bored pm me a rough cost of the work done as i might get a quote one day..
i like the subtle green touches, seems to work well
Jon looking good, rear badge is good idea and will look awesome on the finished cargood pics john. love it

Jon, are you still after some new headlights?
Oops **** looks like I am holding you up as I stole your window motor LOL
yes as well as indicators amd fogs
Well I've got the headlights off of The Ghost. They've only been on there for 1000 miles, ish, and they've been run with protectors on them, so they're as good as new. Now I wasn't going to sell them, however..........
Just in from garage, re made the loom for the engine and wrapped it, a few minor repairs but she should be good.
looking good jonathan keep up the good work [sat]
any more up dates JRP
YEP... spent the day Marine cleaned the subframe and front arches, roll bar, steering rack.
let dry, rubbed down (fecking ages that took)
metal readied the frame, arches etc
This eve painted, pics show before and afters.
Its really nice hard works paying off.
some more
Fu#k me that looks the nuts john
. top work mate
Top work fella. Keep up the good work was the diaology screen print and part numbers any good?
id rung them and ordered parts before i got them haahaha.
They do not do inner roll bar bushes they are NLA
also they do not do the front subframe rear bolts @ 12mm
Did you use POR 15 for this? Looks good. I want to repaint the whole underside of my 5 soon and have been looking at Silver POR 15 with a top coat of 'Hardnose' in yellow.
por 15....
yep por 15.
dont get the white core with hardener its ****y and water like.
will take ten coats for good finish.
black is the best. and it lasts for ever.. ive painted subframe... under car.. loads of parts and only used 1/4 of a tin and its a small tin
Where's the best place to buy por15 ?
From this gaff.
Buy marine cleaner, metel ready and your paint selection

Do you mean front ARB? The centre one isn't available but the two outside ones are available from reno.
Screen dump attached
bolt is not available in 12mm and i think 12mm is the size i need or the subframe uses.
ohh i dunno what to do ohhhh ohhh ohhh
Part Numbers for the attached
not giving me any part numbers for items 1,2 & 3
4 - 77 03 001 160 BOLT SP .41
5 - 79 03 053 043 WASHER 8-14 .47
6 - 77 03 055 011 WASHER .47
7 - 79 03 032 018 NUT .36
8 - 60 01 007 821 BUSH A/R/BAR 5.49
9 - 77 00 680 098 BKT ANTI ROLL BAR 2.50
10 - 60 06 001 992 (not in price list)
11 - 77 03 101 076 BOLT SP .69
12 - 77 03 033 033 USE 7701422013P10 .58
The subframe is just a hole and so is the matting point on the shell you could prob get away with non renault locking nut's, washer's & bolt's matey of a higher tensile.

Sorry I meant the Centre bracket isn't available but I Pm'd you availability and part numbers for all the rest a while back. (inc 1,2 and 3)
cheers mate so i need to buy 3 items in total ??From this gaff.

yep. they really prep the surface for a good coat to take
Note to self... Do in future make sure that you seal the POR 15 can lid.
If you dont jrp you will find it dried up into a rock hard ball in the can next time you come to use some.
Hoe much do people pay on average for powerder coating.. for example a sump, timing chain cover and a few other bits
Well I had 70 items plus sub frame £80 for matt black power coat including blasting
Come on jrp get some update pics up it looks alot different now
