Headlight Removal
My ZX has the strosek style front bumper, so may not be possible to get in from the corner lense, will have a go!

Headlight Removal
Is this possible without removing the bumper, or is it just easier to remove the front bumper and get access?

Auction Watch Japan
Red twin turbo LWB, 1992 model, registered November 1992, has the Veilside bodykit which now looks horribly outdated... Auction Grade 3.5 but does suggest bodywork needs attention in a few areas but nothing major, is non-accident vehicle

99 Spec Headlight Inserts
Yes think i'm gonna knock the 99 spec inserts on the head, maybe concentrate my efforts on a bi-xenon conversion with new projectors makes more sense

99 Spec Headlight Inserts
Thanks, I notice that Z centre no longer do these, part of me does wonder if doing the 99 spec inserts is actually worth the effort!! Might just chrome the standard inserts and go with that... afterall they will never create the same effect as genuine 99 seconds headlights.

Targa Strip Clips
On this boat today, to avoid these clips breaking once you put them back oil the screw and fill the clip with oil, then multiple turns left and right to reduce resistance / clean the thread.... When you finally tighten them as soon as you feel they are pinch tight stop, otherwise they will split in 2, I found the 2 end ones can take a touch more tightening without splitting because they are encased by the rubber end caps. You will know what I mean if you've removed the targa strips!!

wings ebay
Have to agree, if not ugly the styling does look dated, I think the factory Zed wings look better

The Bandit has gone
Who remembers the interplay with sheriff Buford T Justice and Burt in the Smokey films? was slapstick comedy at it's best!

How difficult is 1st time plenum removal
Yes:), and it sounds so sweet after replacing one of the injectors and cleaning all the injector plugs / pins on each injector, well worth the effort!

Respray - New Colour
Those Merc's look sweet as Richard:), problem with colour choice is that it is hard to be 100% on any one colour as there's so much to choose!! I have seen a few Zed's done in millenium jade and i'm not really convinced, Palladium silver looks great on a lot of Merc's, seems to be the colour if choice on C63's!
-
Respray - New Colour
If you want to be a bit different have a think about some of the Mercedes colours, eg palladium silver / cubanite silver
