Doors Not Closing Right
Published (2009-12-01 17:05:00)
Have the a panels been replaced? You will probably find the doors might need pulling up and down to get them aligned, the hinge will do so much, then you will need to use brute force to bend the hinge panel into shape. Paul.

Like any repro panels they take more work to make them fit. By the time youve painted them they look good enough. I've used Hadrian panels in the past and found them ok. I bought a repo front wing once, that wouldnt fit no matter what i did with it.

QUOTE (stinky @ Dec 3 2009, 05:30 PM) do you take it all appart bit by bit to spray it. or do you just mask it all off and spray while all connected In my case, in the photo, I sprayed, or painted the components while the engine was stripped down, but if there was no mechanical reason to take it apart, I would remove the ancillaries & paint them & then mask the major parts, I have...

Who's got the can of worms picture.... ?? Reshell, unless you use a new heritage shell then the vehicle will need to undergo an IVA and will end up with a Q plate.... if for some strange reason it passed The argument, " there are loads of minis which have been reshelled " is not a defence, failure to comply could result in your vehicle being crushed...
