Real walnut wood can be so dark you cannot see any grain!

Yeah quite a few people on the facebook monogram page have used the spray cans from the ebay seller and are happy with it. One did a mirror cap in Poseidon with the spray can and it came out good If I have enough I might do the engine cover with the spray can

The real wood dash I fitted in my dad's 75 is of excellent quality and you can see the grains. I quite prefer the darker colour of the real wood dash too and the air vents fit more snug. Plus the real wood dash doesn't creak. I have the plastic black oak in mine and it creaks quite a bit.

I saw a black Contemporary SE at a recent south east meet with real wood walnut dash and it looked fantastic. Had a real expensive look to it

This is the real walnut dash in my dad's 75

I shall be heating the rear seats, in the next few days with any luck.

Designing something to work similar to the intravee.

Other than that, I'll be replacing the clutch, possibly the timing belts. Hopeful xenons and washers.

If I'm really lucky/successful in graduation and job seeking I'll be treating her to a stainless exhaust and wide-screen head unit.

Potentially a busy year to come! Certainly exciting.

Pretty sure I could tell you by the shape of it though if you have a picture
looked on Rimmers and looks like the one I have is for a MKI as its square

I think my ZT will expire before I can finish the never ending list of mods I keep adding!
I've had a Front spoiler in the attic for 6 months pending funds to have it painted and fitted... :-(
Oh well, here goes another year!

Red face Mine....

hi


Well, I would like to get a Harmon Kardon Sound System fitted to my Navall 1
Funds permitting

But will do

ZT type bumper exhaust trim fitted with chrome tips to my exhaust
Cruise control retro fitted- have the bits but not had time yet
Replace pipe from oil cooler to oil filter that has tiny leak
Replace sunvisers with vanity lights (got)
In summer have car properly rustproofed

No doubt some other bits too.......

Chris
