Car is settling very nice in it's new home in Hong Kong (HERE are a few club snaps for anyone interested)
Engine has a had an overhaul (and eliseparts exhaust fitted
), just working on the suspension now and getting some new tyres fitted,The interior is looking really tatty so that's my next job. I'd appreciate any advice I can get on sorting it out...
1. Dash Panel with 'Elise' wrote on it
Sadly the paint has been chipped off and is flaking above the radio.
Can this be repainted? If so what is the code? Where can i get the paint from?
...or where can I buy a new panel from? I've searched on all the elise part internet shops, but with no luck!
2. The Floor
It's looking really faded and discoloured. Any secrets for bringing the colour back to it?
3. The Seats
They're all scuffed and large 'grey' areas are visible where they should be black. Are there any leather treatment products to 'liven them up' also?
4. The Seat Rails
5 years sat in a barn have not been kind to it and the rails etc. have a layer of rust on them. I want to remove them and repaint them.
- is it easy to remove the seats? Do I have to go under the car?
- What is the best paint to use?
5. The Chassis
It's all scuffed and marked and I can't seem to wash off the shoe sole scuff marks.
I recall reading some tips on how to do this years ago... does anyone have a link/ that info?
Thanks in advance!
Ben
