the longer you leave laquer the harder it becomes and therefore harder to polish up. Make sure you do it within 2 days of application.

On a side note has anyone seen or done a combat 2 wide arch kit on a tigra? I saw one outside a bodyshop in B'Ham the other day and it looked good.

yes and no, it may be the first time its been done, in which case I would be surprised. It may just be that I have not noticed them in the past.

well the tigra seats are dead easy just flimsy bits of foam so just cover with material and stick with contact adheasive!!!

front seats gonna have to get mum to help, we are gonna leave the side parts and try replace the centrers to get it all matching!!!! this means stripping the whole seat, cutting the old threads and then sowing in the new leather area!!! not the easiest job really but needs to be done really to get full effect!!! may pop the rear seats back in the car latter c how they look!!!

got up at 7 this morning and mopped the car, off to work now! re cover teh roof lining this afternoon i hope!!!
