I plan on cleaning up the Agents a bit tomorrow, I'll take a few better picture of them too!

I had a look at the Red Stripe that I went over with the Autoglym, still looks good. However I will need to go over it again as I didn't really apply a very even coat lol. I'll see how I go tomorrow but the crappy Melbourne weather may prevent me from doing so!

I cleaned up the Agents a little better today, they came up well. However, I noticed a small mark on the inner of one rim, at first I thought it could have been bubblegum but now im wondering if its a repaired crack? What do you think?

Yeah I'll have to so I can see if it comes off, but do you reckon it looks like a repaired crack or something?

Just read this thread from start to finish and I love the way you've gone about modifying this, its so mint!

A kit and the 19's will set it off 8-)

About the spot on the rims I'm far from an expert, but usually if they were to crack it would be on the inner lip or the spoke?

Thats just my opinion though, better off getting somebody elses advice :P

Cheers,
Luke

Thanks mate I appreciate it, yeah I hope it will turn out alright with the kit and Agents.

Yeah I'm not too sure what's the go with the spot, never had a cracked rim before so I got no idea where it would crack?

I have been doing a lot of research into fitting BA/BF series front and rear seats into an EL lately.
By the looks of it the fronts are almost a direct bolt in, however everyone seems to think the rears won't go. Can anyone shed some light on exactly what's stopping them from fitting in?
I'm thinking that perhaps they might be too wide?

I can't seem to find anyone who gives can tell me exactly why they won't fit, people just seem to say they won't. Has anyone actually managed to put them in? Might be the connecting bolts/latches on the floor might be a different configuration?

Maybe even adding the BA fronts and then retrimming the EL rears might be an idea, just want to it to match properly is the only issue
