I would personally leave the 200 miler with the original plate. But I'm just anal like that, I'm currently trying to find someone to make me copies of my existing dealer fit plates ________________________________________ GaryCherry Red GTi 6 |

Use the new plate on this project, you can always transfer it later to the 200 mile one. (If you wanted to) |

Ok its been long time since an update but thats because its been more of the same! Rust removal! But I think I am finally there now, the last bits have been done so lets hope it all doesnt come back!It seems the rust on the front floor pan had been creaping behind the rubberised stone chip Peugeot put on! So I had to peel a lot of this off and blast and trat it all.     As the engine bay was still badly pitted from where all the rust had been sand blasted of this was stone chipped same as the rear floor was done.  Then the front arches were acid etched primed   And then stone chipped aswell   Now this is left to dry fully for a few days ready for the top coat at last. ________________________________________ Carl Chambersemail; pugnacious.peugeot@yahoo.co.uk .

It wasnt minty white that was the Acid ectch primer, as the car is going to be a touring car rep in Yellow the engine bay and interior on them car was graphite grey hence why I have done it like that. ________________________________________ Carl Chambersemail; pugnacious.peugeot@yahoo.co.uk .

so to confirm,you applied kurupt to the pitted/rust areas then sandblasted this off aswell as generally sandblasting the other areas, then acid etched followed by stone chipping, which is ready for a top coat then of your grey colour? i have also spotted rust the front chassis leg on my p1 but nowhere near as bad as what has been mentioned, unless the p1's are not as bad as the later ones  ________________________________________ 306 rallye reproduction decals (full sets/individual decals) | 306 b-pillar textured vinyl weatherstrips306 slam panel esso stickers | 306 yellow / orange / pension fund red side door badges gti6 inlet manifold badges | 306 rear boot badges (p2/p3) winner of Extraction of toys from prams with outstanding vigour award 2009 [source: gti6 owners club] |
