What have you done to your Elgrand today?

[Claptrap]

Washed and waxed my side of the car Saturday and got rid of yellow on lights, then pulled my back out so been laid up past 2 days. Told wife where cleaning stuff is for her side.... Went down well...

But if you’re back is still hurting by the time you both go out in the van next time and she drives... her side is already done!

Her? Drive? Why? She has a personal chauffeur!

Did a bit of a paint correction/swirl removal today on one side, only got the one side done in the time I had but its brought it back to life.

Not done anything to the car, but I have been a bit bored so been looking through all the cars old service records and service / owners manuals and came across this... I didn't realise they would specify different oil grades for LPG elgrands or is this just something to fully disregard??

Brill, did you get any pics?

I should have took before pictures really, was a spontaneous job. Will take before and after of the other side!

The paint seems fairly soft just like my 350z paint, so it's easy to correct and remove shallow scratches.

Today I mostly did , gave the old girl a wash and then a going over with gyeon wetcoat. Then changed wheels for my spares so the others can get powder coated BLACK in the near future , also started to paint the calipers red. Rain stopped play.Not 100% sure about the calipers being red ?.

I would normally say you can't go wrong with a red caliper but I agree with Liz, keep everything black in this case, looks great.

 

[Simon58]

Cheers all, black it will be .

I don’t mind the red. Looks smart against dark vehicles and wheels. Just a shame the callipers are so small ha. That said I’ll still be painting mine

I fitted a handle on the outside of the tailgate, so much easier to manage the tailgate now. My problem is that I can't get my laptop to recognise new pics from phone today. Recent Windows update has screwed things up (again), will try again tomorrow when we've both had a kip.

Have you just done that MASSIVE Windows latest version which took me over 3 fricking hours? Jeez.
