Rusty Roof

[chteo]

bro wah, what i meant was to repair the rust, repaint, and then only apply PPS/OptiSeal... :)

now if i do PPS/OptiSeal will be a waste...

 

[wah]

sorry abang teo i mis-understand liao

 

[chteo]

no worries, bro, plenty of "fixes" i want to do with this car, this month rewrap to leather seat and upgrade the headlamps, after that budget for rust fix, suspensions, rubber to silicone (optional), radiator, more UR bars, maybe Goodyear F1 if the size and price is right.....

 

[wah]

wo... big project ne... alot of money spend too....
I also looking for headlamp too...

GY F1 which size ur looking? I give up to try it out, cz I looking for 215/50/17, 225/50/17 or 215/55/17 semua pun tak da... now still using toyo T1r, later look for other brand, toyo very expension. rm1600 for 4.

small stuff only, modding the cefiro to be a GT-like car (minus the bigger power, but more on comfort and braking for safety).

i'm looking at GF F1 215/45/17 since i'm also drooling at the TE37 rim, but not sure whether can fit or not....

Oh, te37 for a32 !
Take note for the offset, normally too much offset as well $$$$

by the way, let's stick back to the roof discussion, i'll open another thread to talk about parts...

was quoted by Mike of SPS about RM500 to fix the rusty roof... anyone else wants to go?

Sound good bro.. What sort of treatment/procedures they will do?

By the way, my fatty still in workshop WIP due to the overheating issues as mentioned earlier. Since the engine is out the hood, I've took the opportunity to replace/make good whatever necessary. Might consider the roof job later.

From what mike told me:

1. Remove roof lining
2. Scrap off all the old glues
3. Repair rust areas, if mushroom spot is too thin or has hole, they'll patch it up
4. Replace glue with '255' glue
5. Repaint whole roof till pillar A/C halfway

215/45/17 may impact your FC. TE37 nice rim. 2k atlest. should fit. But make sure it is ori, now a day many from China, it look alike. but rim weight will tell you alot.

Bro , the tire size you've mentioned will fit like a glove. I'm using 225/50/17. The fatty have quite a huge wheel well. One of my friend is using 19s' and slammed! Looks gorgeous but will have difficult time avoiding potholes, lol!
