No new updates as of yet. Coilovers being ordered end of the month as well as wheels getting changed to white. Had it cleaned with a local detailer as I still can't do it due to health.

You will get moisture build up this time of year. Heaters are usually on so inside gets much warmer than outside then you park up and get out and all that warm air is inside and it's got to go somewhere.

Yeah that is true. If the car is being kept original then there's only 2 choices. If it's quite a bit cheaper to have it refurbed then that's the route I would go.

I've had many show wheels over the years and you can definitely repair it to look original. I would look for someone that does work for "scene" cars Most will say no as it's not a straight forward in/out job

Any good refurber will repair and colour match no problem. Had plenty of individual wheels repaired over the years

Can I ask why you would want to replace it? Any good alloy wheel refurbisher would sort it out for a fraction of the price.

Does anyone know the part number for the centre caps for my monte wheels?

Sorry I just seen the size. It's been a long day

What size spacers are they?

This was happening to mine around 6 months ago. Took it in to be looked at and the water pump had a slight leak so got it changed along with new timing belt kit

About time I dragged this back up after having some time away from the car due to ill health. Are you still available Rich for activating a few things?

Cheers.They shouldn't be that bad to maintain once the car is fully detailed and protected. Haven't bought a wheel cleaner in years. Quick pressure wash and there like new.

Finally picked up my spare Monte Carlo wheel today after it needed repainting for a 2nd time. Very happy with the finish and 100% convinced I'll be going full white colour change with the rest of the wheels.

Around £400 it was mate. I had it off a member on here in as new condition.

I looked at a vrs but opted for the diesel monte carlo as I preferred the look of it

Not sure on the badges

Should work well on a white Monte. Hopefully pick them up the end of the month as well as fitting my new suspension

Nothing really happend recently due to my back still being knackered. I did send a original Monte Carlo wheel to a mate to refurb it and paint it white. The original black ones just get lost in the arches. I will send the other 4 off soon to be done.

Well I've had to put my plans on hold for a few months due to pulling a muscle in my back...... or so I thought. Currently having intensive corrective work on my spine which will get me back to 100%

Did you do this on the dnx521dab?

Sounds like you might be going to slow for the gear your in and the car is trying not to stall. Read on here before that it's like an anti stall type thing

No problem. The wife changed her mind and has booked her car in for a leather retrim. Good luck with the sale

Bought a genuine centre armrest off a fellow member which turned up today. Excellent condition but probably won't fit it until the car goes in to be trimmed.

Tried to change the startup screen on my kenwood but couldn't do it. Did manage to put the original startup back in the end.

malcster Bought a mk2 fabia armrest. Great communication and well packaged.
