Just standard replacement ones off eBay for $299 hopefully they look good

Wheels look good! What colour silver did you use and was it a good match to the original paint?

[LZY13B]

Was just the standard VHT silver a little lighter bit more shine but looks good and is made for wheels not bad for like $70 lol

What a difference new headlights make turns out my parkers were blown and only had LED's so they went in little different in colour but I'm not fussed and by some magic the lights dip up and down again from the switch it had stopped working some how but working perfect now with the new lights

Wheels came up nice man! Did you primer them before you painted?

Thanks mate yeah rubbed them down and used primer filler to fill up some of the scratches and marks then another little rub down before paint and came out mint

I knew my luck would run out soon lasting so long without any problems haha turns out my rocker cover gasket is leaking from the back so I've ordered a new gasket that should turn up next week so that will be a fun job to do in the next few weeks.

On top of that driving home yesterday I look in my mirror and noticed this



The whole rear half of my roof lining has dropped so this will be a fun job to tackle I hope removing the whole roof lining isn't too hard to do to re stick it

Removing the roof isn't hard, but getting the old material sitting back down neatly will be another story. Once they start sagging, the whole roof will drop before long. Best off remove the old material and laying down new material. If your not confident doing that, you could get a shop to do it for you. Should be a lot cheaper if you remove the material and prep it all for them and reinstall back into the car as that's the most time consuming part

New parts yay



Also my mate came around with some heavy duty glue for the roof lining it's not perfect but much better than what it was so good enough for me

the rocker cover gasket is an easy job, barely 30mins go to whoa. Unless you do it like me and hoping that 3rd times a charm. FML.

Instead of replacing my head lights, I paid a local dude who "specialises" in head light restoration $130. They were quite knackered, but now look like new, very happy with the outcome. He sanded them back, buffed em, then applied a poly carbonate sealant. And a 3 year warranty.
