All stock bar the k&n panel filter Silver Donating Members 8,061 Member For: 12y 11m 10d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 21/11/14 05:35 AM Share Posted 21/11/14 05:35 AM Has it made it better though?I got mine looked at by Ford for the gearbox issue, which should be getting fixed under warranty. Also went to Malaga suspension to find out what my new knocking noise from the back passenger corner of the car when taking off and breaking was after the drive day...turns out my control blade bush is shagged...rad.

barnz Member 3,047 Member For: 11y 3m 3d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 21/11/14 06:55 AM Share Posted 21/11/14 06:55 AM Started with the Mothers kit with the sanding disc and buffing attachment.I did find some 800 & 1200 grit Wet&Dry from Bunnings handing.Also went to Paint Place and pick up more Wet&Dry pads with Velcro backing.They're 6" but just cut the disc out of them to fit.I think I'll get a far bit of use out of the sanding disc and polishing pad. Spot on for restoring black plastics between doors.Pitting at start.Finished.I do need to get inside to clean inside.Any tips on baking them?A heat gun won't cut it?Nobody has successfully separated an fg light, apparently the glue is diff to b series and is a bitch. Seen some attempts at cutting them open which looks pretty chit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
