Red taillight tint off of ebay.


Another update, I am working on a rear seat delete

 

Test fitting:

 

It looks great but the clear coat on the top pic looks to be in pretty rough shape. Might wanna try to poly it or send it back

 

I am contemplating sending it back actually... IDK, maybe I will just reclear it myself and call it a day...

 

I tried to do it with my C12 stuff and it was a lot easier to just do it myself and save the hassle. I dumped a can of crystal clear polyurethane on top of it and it made the pieces feel more solid. If you rattle can the stuff make sure you get a urethane clear or else it will cause you problems down the road

 

I was wondering what the process was like to remove the badges. I want to take mine off to re-paint them. Front and back both held in by screws / clips? Hard to get to? TC badge was just adhesive.

 

^^^No clips and no screws, you will need to remove the rear garnish and the front radiator cooling panel so you can push the emblems out from the back side. Other than that, they are held on by double sided sticky tape.

 

darn pinholes....

 

Can we just take the tC badge off with a heat gun and some dental floss?

 

I was able to get mine off by just grabbing the corner and pulling. But I took it off on like my 3rd day of ownership.

 

could i see some more pics of the debadges? your avatar pic doesnt show a badge but i don't see a full image without the badge in your thread( might ahve missed it)

 

Avatar is a photoshop, The actual bumper is in the shop getting prep and paint work done. I should be getting it back soon. Although if you look back through this thread there are some pics of when I was working on the bumper.

 

Nothing new, I just took this pic the other day and figured I would post it:

 

Some new stuff showed up today.

I will be installing tonight after my work dinner

 

Sweet! You just going to use regular staples for the shift boot?

 

^^^I haven't gotten home yet to see if they included the stock staples, my wife snapped that picture for me.

 

LOL! That's a well trained wife!

 

Lol, you don't even know. During the xD build, she bought the carbon fiber hood, carbon fiber dash kit, carbon fiber B-pillars, and even helped on the subwoofer/amp design and build, plus she actively helps with DT9 Designs. She helps so much and supports me so much that I decided to give her the project xD to daily drive. Last week she said she wants to pick up a new set of wheels and wants to sticker bomb the front lip.

Anyway, back on topic, I have the ebrake boot and arm rest cover installed and am headed out right now to grab staples to do the shift boot pics will be up tonight.

 

I can't wait to check it out.

 

Update?
