heres a better pic

heres what they look like

dunno about the badges but it could be. it was a fad, a my work we would pull them off landcruiser 100 series and send them away to get gold plated. some bastards have too much money

it was done by a very reputable brake buisness and they wouldn't have done it if they thought it was in any way dangerous. They did it so they carry any warranty issues, and it wasn't to save a couple of dollars it was to save a lot of money.

they were rooted by a tyre place machining them (put a wobble in them and only machined one side) and where illegal to machine again so i had to replace

the disc i got where rda 34 gtr slotted. The only difference is about 6mm in diameter wich where machined down to size . pretty good option i think

finaly got the car to the brake shop and got 2 new front rotors and red stuff pads and a flush. made a huge difference the soft feel has completely disapeared

not too sure. is it hard steel / aluminium or rubber. if its aluminum they are usually cliped on ( unless they're gay ) if its rubber you can usually reuse them (unless they tear or have shrunk ) but to replace them properly you have to remove the glass wich is why it would cost $160. It's not the easiest job pulling out a glass and not breaking it. ok just looked at the pic. what i usually do is pack the underside full of urethane and then put a clamp sort of thing on it to push down on the molding. Any decent windscreen shop should do it for you for like $10 - $20 at the most , but it takes a hour for the urethane to cure. i can understand what the windscreen bloke has told you early camry's have the same set up and once you pull it out the top mold will crease/bend. There are ways around it but it takes time and time is money so they usualy just rip it out and chuck a rubber top mold in because it is a lot less hastle.

go and buy a tube of urethane off a windscreen shop and stick it down yourself

i did the power window controllers at the same time. Ill try to get a better photo in the day

yep it's all painted from the gear surround to the gauges on the dash

^ nismo. direct fit. I have one in my gtt

probably not i live a hour from cairns . it's not that hard you just have to be careful when pulling it apart. Mainly the ac section

did you try car polish / wax ? Use only polish nothing with cut in it or it will scratch. use something like eg. meguires wetlook

it's not that hard i think there is a thread on removing it to get to the sterio.

looks pretty smick. u getting a rear bar aswell ? was thinking of pulling the spoiler off my boot but dunno

mine did the same thing. power fc time (if you can find one and are prepared to sell your kidney)

just pull the whole ac vents panel out. It comes out towards you. you can lever it with a screw driver in the egde. you will then see two screws. pull them out and slide the gauges towards you. then you unplug the gauges and remove the 2 screws holding the gauge to plastic

plexus - plastic polish. comes in a aerasol tin at autobarn etc. i use it at work but it's good to polish your headlights too

prob good idea to get some silicone drops for the paint. stops fish eyes if you've been spraying tyre shine and armor all around. Just get it at a h'ware shop

Good one you gave me insparation to do do mine. But instead of metho i used gp thinners and a white scouring pad. The hardest part was putting it all back together. I had some left over paint so mines proton gti silver. ha
