Probably tarnished from using ammonia based cleaning products like windex on the acrylic over time, it melts it basically. Pretty sure you won't be able to shift it.

PM sent in regards to available cooler due to aborted RA mods

Ordered myself a focus ST! much nicer, fresher and newer than the old CJ design. RA will sit in the garage until I work out what to do with it.

It's more than the ETA that does that... ok back in my box now...

ETA - I corrected some spelling and added to the thread title. You do know that this will most likely decrease the value of the car as not everyone will want a painted\flocked interior, seen the show cars that don't sell because of stuff done to the interior etc? If you're keeping it forever, fair ...

You'd need a specialist insurer like just cars or shannons. If they won't do it, a broker will be able to put you in touch with some. You will most likely need a CAMS licence and so forth before they will touch you though. Each case is different, my cosmo was with shannons for years and they were fi...

Think they solved that problem with the colour screen, never had a problem seeing it. Have lots of other dislikes about the interior though, cheap look and feel, rattles and squeaks and so on... tired a remedy for that: went to the ford dealer to ask about the new mustang though... was peeved when t...

Upto you, though the warranty is 5year\100,000km. I didn't get capped price servicing with mine at all, so wouldn't know what price it is, my 5000km service the other day was $264 including wheel rotation and alignment and using genuine oil and filter from the dealer.

If your car has any warranty left (I see it's a 2013 RA so guessing it would) it would be very advisable to have it serviced at a mechanics\dealer at the required 5000km intervals. Never know what may come up and mitsu will no doubt laugh at you and tell you your warranty is void when you say it's &...

Don't see too much of an issue with the price, someone has taken the time to measure, cut and prototype this and then have them computer cut for accuracy etc to save people like us time and having to do all that and just be able to stick it on. Buy a 5 metre roll of carbon fibre vinyl for $50 and wr...

But for now long live the CJ, lets see if they can make it a to its 10th birthday! A car that hangs around unchanged for as long as the CJ has is NOT a good thing at all. Customers will leave and not buy as why should they stump $$$ for a car that has the same look and interior etc as a 2007 model ...

I still think I paid a good price for my VRX, although it is annoying to see some used RA only 3-4k more :( but for me the killer with a turbo is the higher running costs and insurance which is 3-4 times that of the VRX. How much you paying for insurance? Mine's about $750\year full comp with free ...

Booked car into my mechanics for it's 5k\6month service. How time flies!

Define cheap, I got my RA for around 28k on the road
