Well said Avenir, and welcome.

Looks great. Nice lip that isn't over the top excessive.

I was considering buying my appropriate paint eventually to respray my roof. However it is also a pearl, X42 to be exact. I assume that would be out of reach for the home DIYer? Best to save money on tools and paint and pay a professional?

Don't quote me on it, but I have read in multiple different forums that the SST trans was strengthened in the 2012 and onwards models.
With that being said, nothing beats a responsible previous owner who followed all the maintenance schedules. So always make sure to have the SST checked thoroughly.

Welcome along.

Welcome to the group.

Welcome to the forum guys, alot of good stuff on here. I'm sure I'm not alone when I say I have lost more time than I'd care to admit reading some old and new posts haha.

Filled up at my local BP today with the usual BP Ultimate, the price was $1.19. Alot nicer than the $1.60ish I was paying 6 months ago.

I'll just bring the lancer straight over LancerDarryl, the old girl in dire need of a fresh lick of paint.

I just completed my first go at mild paint correction followed by a hand wax then some HCW from meguiars. Looks the business and since my car lives outside, has a bit more protection from the elements.

Hey Lancer2014, that's a good looking front lip. Do you remember the name/where you sourced it by chance? I would like to freshen up my 08's front but I can't seem to find that is conservative like that one in AU.
Cheers.

Congrats, looks great.

Wow that is pretty.

Try evolution racing spares on Facebook, would say they will have one for sure.

I see them for sale for 300 in QLD frequently, take a good while to sell too it seems. I have wanted to do the leather interior upgrade, but it can be a pain if you have no way to transport them I guess, may put some people off.
