what colour shoudl i paint my rocker covers?

I'll give you a serious answer: Either get them polished ... or painted gunmetal grey. Depends on what you do with the rest of the under-bonnet components.

If you're going braided hoses etc, polish the covers. It would suit the white engine bay too.

thanks ruby

still not sure what i gonna do, wanna do something tho was thinking of maybe painting them blue and then re doing my calipers blue aswell

Ah ha! So the Stag has influenced you!!! :)

You should know better by now than to post up a "what to do with my car" request Cara. You'd rarely get a sensible answer. The answer you want is in those car mags you've collected ... have a browse and see what works for you. :)

i think theres a how to on SAU somewhere Cara, i think there is a couple of things to look out for when your prepping them for paint.

True. I've got all the equipment at home from back when I was a spray painter, Cara. If you got some Qs, just ask. When you decide on the colour to paint them, you can borrow my gear to do it. :)

Turned car on, pump was slightly ( barely) wining so turned side to side few more turns and fluid level when car on was almost none in resorvoir which I guess is normal if car is one. Turned car of and fluid was gushing out. Almost 200-300cc was pushed out. Repeated engine off side to side followed  by engine on and same result       going mad now. It seems system is either sucking air in whilst on or there is tons of air which I am not giving it enough time to bleed. Thoughts?   would it work like brake caliper if I open steering rack copper pipes and let gravity pull all air out?   or maybe have a restriction somewhere? What is the red circled item, could that be blocked? It i
    • Yeah, the plan is to just put some black rubber vacuum line caps over them to "hide" them a bit I don't want to trim them in cause I need to put the OEM box back on at some stage
