Greats pics

Did Woderwick help? He can be a bit of a wapscawion!!

The Gonz · **Reply #32: May 16, 2014, 11:16:21**

It all comes with mounting hardware and includes lining strips for panel contact - quite impressed!

A full rear (high) spoiler identical to mine is also in the set, which I'll 'onsell'.

I'll pace myself and look into matching paint at SuperCheap tomorrow.

Can't wait to see the finished product!

Should look nice once all put together, personally speaking though I would get them sprayed professionally, front and rear skirts would be in the range of $150 and in the end will look so much better.

Don't know why, but I always imagined you as GONZ 69.

Hmm...Thanks, I guess.

The Gonz · **Reply #37: May 17, 2014, 04:02:45**

While I defer the spraying until I have time and options, here are this morning's work.

I can't help feeling that it adds a kind of Euro-Performance sophistication...completely illogical, definitely emotional.

Would there be any interest in my scanning and uploading the instruction sheets as some contribution to i30 knowledge?

Dazzler · **Reply #38: May 17, 2014, 04:35:56**

Nice fit Gonz! Yep a scan and upload would be good thanks.. I reckon Steve, Phil and myself will each archive a copy too if you do that!

CraigB · **Reply #39: May 17, 2014, 05:03:52**

Looks really good Gonz

I'm glad you decided to raise it, the first set of photos showed that it would definitely scrape on the ground.

beerman · **Reply #41: May 17, 2014, 08:17:47**

Is the rear spoiler painted?

Yes, already HyperSilver as well (if you mean the high wing).

Doggie 1 · **Reply #43: May 17, 2014, 12:32:24**

Looks great, Gonz.
Good job.

For the FD zealots, here's the doco on the sideskirts...

Hope you don't mind Gonz but I cleaned the scans up a bit and then made them all into one pdf...

For those that want it it can be downloaded here

Dazzler · **Reply #48: May 19, 2014, 13:57:47**

You're not ALL bad Rusty

rustynutz · **Reply #49: May 19, 2014, 14:27:53**

Thanks...I think...

Welease the Pictowials!...

Pardon the resuscitation but this is the neatest way to show what four sessions of light, patient spraying over a week has achieved. As spotty and uneven as the first coat seemed, it improves (or my technique does

) and now I'll just keep going for another week until the can is empty. Then I have a similar schedule of clear acrylic to go. Note that the black inserts have been covered with carefully sculpted masking tape.

FatBoy · **Reply #51: July 28, 2014, 05:18:48**

That looks fantastic, Gonz.

The Gonz · **Reply #52: July 28, 2014, 06:17:35**

Following on from what I started and taking a hint from Rusty's good work creating one PDF from the scanned images, here's a link to the instructions for the front skirt.

Oh, and I read that Jesse was looking to do this at some point as well. I can confirm, having done it, that both front and rear mud flaps (if that's what you call those tiny bits of black plastic) have to come off to fit the sideskirts.

Dazzler · **Reply #53: July 28, 2014, 06:28:17**

Nice job Gonz.. You have got more patience than me!

Doggie 1 · **Reply #54: July 28, 2014, 07:38:52**

So, from the serial number on the rubbish bin we can work out which council it's from then make discreet inquiries to narrow it down to a specific address.
Mm....

The Gonz · **Reply #55: July 28, 2014, 08:48:46**

Gee, that's REALLY doing it the hard way.

You could PM him, I'm sure he'd tell you if you said you were bringing a good Spanish red (my favourite is a Rioja).

The Gonz · **Reply #57: July 28, 2014, 08:55:11**

Oh, I have a very classy range of Riojas dating from 1985 to the present day.

Shame you won't be in Adelaide anytime soon.

Because the registration plates make it too easy right?
