Car has been in with Pristine Alloy Wheels this week getting the wheels powdercoated gloss black.
That of course means that the centre caps needed sorting out.
After black paint, badges applied but before lacquer
After several coats of lacquer
Once i get the car back i'll take some more pics.
Next up is more sound deadening before i even think about exhausts i will mostly be spending the next few weeks driving around with no interior other than a drivers seat whist I sort out the biscuit tin acoustics of the S2000.
Plan is;
1. Lay sound deadening pieces over the major panels of the car, not full coverage just pieces.
2. Cut laminate foam into suitable sized pieces and lay that over the top of the metal and over the top of the sound deadening pieces with a liberal coating of spray adhesive.
3. Lay a final full covering of thin sound deadener over that, roll it down so it's stuck firmly in place.
4. Cut door card shaped pieces out of the carpet and spray glue that to the doorcards. I will also add more sound deadening to the outer door skins at the same time as well as making up a foam trim piece to stick to the white plastic cover inside the doors - will stop it flapping around.
5. Make up the rear cover for the shelf area - 3 pieces of sound deadener, one layer of foam glued on top and then finally a layer of the carpet above on top of that.
6. Boot and area around fuel tank / spare wheel will be treated to sound deadener, foam and a final layer of sound deadener on top.
I reckon this will add roughly 20kg max in terms of weight but will allow me to have the exhaust of my choice without worrying or caring about drone.
