Default Re: What did you do to your Crossfire today?

Using a heat gun I finally bent the two stalks that hit the paddles when pulled backward. It has been some time since I installed the paddles and I kept delaying this little job.
Today I will install bleeders for the brakes at each wheel, change the brake fluid and clean the inside of the wheels.
While doing the front bleeders I will add new fog light doors and rivet the hinge area in place if I can.
My ambition knows no bounds.
In place of the rivets I used Gorilla tape over the latch and along the top. It's black, stands up to the rain very well and stops water getting too close to the rear of the fog lights and keeps it locked in place.
These new ones from NeedsWings latch much better than the old ones that were on there, one of them came unlatched, rubbed on the tire and had half the latch worn away.
Tip, use Gorilla tape over the latch to prevent the door coming undone. This will stop it getting damaged or lost. Fold over the tape on itself a half an inch to make a pull tab for removing the tape in the future.
