Installed cluster today, everything works perfectly fine, no complaints here, also started on the custom EK side skirts because my rocker panels look like shit and its one less reason to send it to paint when i can do most of the body work myself and blend it in

mmm turbo d series hatch. Going through this build makes me miss mine a little bit.

engine shot:




Is there quarter panel rot? I remember when I started cutting into mine it went all the way back to the tails on the backside. Royal pita. But was a fun learning experience.



Don't mind the hood. People would mess with it when they were bored.

Yeah some quarter rot, i don't think its as bad as the rockers, but we'll see

Take the decals off those Rotas. That's just wrong.

/former EF owner

rockers aren't too bad, but it depends on where at. On mine it had just started to form a little bit so they were a breeze.

That's the way to go. When I got mine someone had started work on the quarters with expanding foam and primer. Made sure to get rid of that fast.

this is me toasting the rubber making it ash so its easy to scrape off with a razor:thumbup:
