what spoiler is this buddy its what ive been looking for (in my head lol)

me ... or am i more south west ?

had a play and a nose underneath and got very red faced and felt like mating my sledgehammer with the zed but went and had a coffee and a ciggy instead non the less upset with my zed :(

and me !!! yeovil, somerset

nice example of badly bodged/crap workmanship by previous owners if this was professionally done the welder should be shot !!!! yup new subframe required i know the zed isn't the easiest car to work on but what sorta task in hand is sub frame removal and replacement ??

couple updated piccys to cheer me up to at least prove to myself i am making progress and dont give up haha newly painted tailgate its still a bit flat but better than rusty primer i shall give it another flat and polish z badge poser lol and a fun one to cheer me up. it may not look like ive done a great deal but im really starting to win against the plasti-dip and some of the shoddy previous workmanship just how far should i go ?lol

yeah this is what im finding so many old bodges and bad workman ship from previous owners just gets worse as i dig in further :/

thankyou as it happens ive just been lookig at your stainless bits yo make and sell when ive got the car running properly again could be after some bits including those clutch rests do they work for the auto as well ?

Been really slow progress on the zed as the metro has had to take main stage as a daily seems i have split boost pipes as well as my leaking water pump getting quite peed off with it now just sat there sulking on the drive i have however i have managed to give it a small lick of paint and more orange plasti-dip removal (long process) and have found that wd40 works a treat to break the plasti-dip down with no damage to the paint. This is going to be a slow and boring build thread i think as there seems to be more and more to do every time i look at it, but im sure it will get there as always, its just time and money holding me back . (DONATIONS GRATEFULLY RECIEVED HAHAHA)

Ohh ok forget any advice I give lol clearly zeds are a big pain to work on all over haha and its a job I gotta do yet too lol :/

Not on a zed no

Should be able to just tap it out mate :) hole punch or crap screwdriver and whacking stick :)

Talking of which has my membership pack been sent out yet buddy ? :) sorry to go off topic lol

Dont suppose theres an idiots guide or any easy tips to tell me about please :) im gutted I was all set to buy the suspension and now I gotta do this bloody xmas and kids :/ lol

Ok so im driving down the road and had to overtake a tractor put my foot down then all of a sudden a mighty squeel from the fan belt so pulled over and just saw water throwing its self on the floor from the water pump have had a good look today and its definatly the water pump is this an easy job to do ? Im a fairly competent home mechanic or should this be done by a garage ?? Poor z :/

Your welcome to arrange your own courier as I need to get the money back to buy a lwb what a fail on my part its a shame as its in such lovely condition :/ was going to take the spoiler off it to see if it would fit mine but if it didnt I would be stuck with 2 spoilerless bootlids hahaha. I only realised after I took my old one off then fed all the electrics through the swb one then fitted it up on the hinges and tried to close it I have some great photos that my mates saw to laugh at me with haha
