i got this white wall paint on my tyres to, and i like it when its starts to get brown and peel of.
i drive my car like 140 kms a day, so the paint wears very fast. but the 'weared' look suits the rest of the car i think

I love Turtle´s scratched logo at the side door ... but how to make this old used style?
Is it possible to scratch it without destroying the paint under the logo ???
I don´t know if it is possible to use a sticker with this scratched style ... and i don´t know how to made this style as a paintjob Sad

Installed the 123UNI ignition today and also cleaned the oil cooler which was VERY dirty..

Also removed the front bumper brush guard, might put it back later on when I have time to fix the driver side rubber for it.. here's the new look:

It all started with a loose bolt in the front silencer..



Had to clean up the internal wing since I had it out..



Just couldn't leave the other side looking like this..



So 'restored' the other side too..



Also added the missing cover to the hood..



Did a lot of cleaning and finally got everything back together and looking nice and clean.. Almost like new from factory.. will still change the 135 spare tire to a 125 one.





Also adjusted the valve clearances.. this and the new hood cover make the ami very quiet.. can actually have a discussion inside when driving.. Very Happy
