That_rx Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 How's it going everyone I have been looking around for a thread that shows some diy projects that cost little or no money. Since I can not find any please post some little or big projects that you think may be fun or a nice upgrade thanks #subielove Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveT Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Get uderneath the car. Look for rust. Look at the metal covered by mudflaps. Check where the front fender goes down to the rocker panel by the front edge of the doors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jono Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 well, for starters you could reduce your boredom by telling everyone what model you have ac heap and awesome cheerful mod I have done on a bored day was to pull the tail light assys apart, revealing the dull grey diecast of the Brumby EA81 'reflectors' of globe light, and custom cut up the silver foil of florists, to suit each plane inside, smear a thin coating of silicone on surface and trim excess off with a hobby knife. The resulting extra brilliance when globes light up is flippin awesome! The tails look like brakes are already on, and then when brakes come on - flippin' heck !! Indicators and reverse all got same treatment so stand out more so too ! Only downside is sometimes when daylight shines at outside of lights, reflects inside to make it look like left my tail lights on Howzatt !
