There you go and you are correct, has both settings. I just thought it seemed really tight on my sump plug and it wasn't even clicking yet!

Looks right, bit of light reflection. 37 or 50nm is correct.

Terrible camera on my phone! Always good to have some reassurance! I wish I had someone in town to help me, it's very daunting doing these things for the first time!

No patience

Really happy with the result! One more to go then I'll go do the front and rear bumpers.

Yes you can buy them at Pelican Parts or Sierra Madre Parts. They are about $4.50 each. Just had to buy some myself.

Nice job with the rocker panels!!!

Personally I prefer the lower rockers in black, that will make your car look even better. I’m looking forward to seeing them installed.

Thanks mate, yeah I think so too. Will be off the road for a bit while I ref urb the oil tank and hoses. I'm currently thinking of changing the look of the car! Now that I've got it how I want it, i realise it looks like a boy racer car! Wanto make it more original.
