1/2 way through color coding the EB side molding things. And XR6 ride height
Well Im half way there.
Just gotta do the bumpers, and fix the bits i couldnt be stuffed doing properly.
Was originally going to just remove the side moldings, and then paint the grey bits on the bumper, but the last owner used a silicon based glue to stick em on. And theres no way thats coming off.
heres the glue :(
Heres what ive done so far.
Not happy withit so im going to redo it, or get it done by someone i know.
And the 4.0l badge is coming off aswell
Originally just wanted to remove the moldings and get clear indicators
Here 1 side with moldings off
Car is also now sitting on EL Xr 6 springs and shocks.
Hard to tell, untill u line it up side bu side with stockos.
Will try get a good comparison shot soon.
Hers one of stock height, but its done at a different zoom, so looks nearly the same. also shows what the side molds used to look like

That glue should come off with a hairdryer and some kerosene/petrol mixed together. I had a bit of it behind my side mouldings on the EF, that mix, and heating up got it off very well, none left behind.
