Yesterday Pulled all trim off decided on more of a KE30 look no trim, also started to sand down rust on wheel wells

 

Still need to remove all left over sticky rubber from trim... and left side guard will need to be filed down.

 

also found original colour underneath when I have the cash would love to get it sprayed original would look sick!.

Also looked under carby today at extractors and just casually a bolt missing... could this cause damage? don't want to sounds noob but I am lol

 

and whoever did the dodgy paint job tried to drill and screw the trim on then proceeded to use white double sided tape to hold it on.

 

also 3rd picture below what is this and why is both ends unplugged?.

 

Last thing where is a good place to start when cleaning up the engine bay for someone who is just starting?

When you get the extractors fitted make sure they also fit in a flange between the extractors and exhaust. Otherwise you'll live in regret if you ever have to pull the motor out.

what Rob said...lol

have ripped my engine out and back in 4 times this week. everytime i want to punch my exhaust guy in the face....
