Got the Zed back yesterday after a week in the bodyshop, had the sills finished off,the aerial hole smoothed,rust patches on rear arches sorted and a lot of work around the rear light area (lots of cutting out,refabricating and welding!) and the whole back end sprayed.

Drivers side sill in progress

 

Done :)

 

Nice job, i bet you are well pleased, plus interior, looking very smart :thumbup:

Looks good mate, I was thinking recently i'd like to get rid of the aerial and put a bee sting style aerial where the rear windscreen washer jet is.

 

What's the purpose of the NA power steering pump after HICAS removal?

Got the stereo aerial going through the aerial loop in the rear screen, though rarely listen to the radio.

Saves modifying the TT pump and makes life easier for removing all the Hicas pipework i believe. :)

Looks like top notch work there, both the welding and the paint

Looking good matey :)

 

Frustrating with the wait but worth it, well I hope so lol

Cheers mate, the guy that did it also did both rear corners behind the wheels (both had completely gone :( ),refabricated my front crossmember and a few other bits and also smoothed the tailgate earlier in the year and I wouldnt have anyone else do paint or bodywork on her now :)

 

This was the drivers side sill :(
