Get a move on Tim - we'll all be driving around in driver less maglev cars before you have that back on the road!

:grin:

(btw, would those mirrors look better with a lick of paint on their bases?)

 

[WalkerSport]

HI Murph,

No the bases that you can see are flexible plastic so you cannot paint them, a quick silicone cleaner will have them like new - picture to follow!

Hi Tim - Is that OEM seals or have you sourced something that fits okay?

Finally we have managed to source some outer seals for the doors, we have had the wrong parts sent, incorrect profile seals sent, from many different suppliers. A big thanks to Jamie at Eurospares for spending the time to search and find the correct seals to get us moving with the doors again. :thumbsup:

Eurospares are great guys, I think it was Neil that spent a lot of time ensuring I ordered the correct wheels for my 550.

Tim,

Cicognani in Italy can supply a lot of the correct rubber seals and various other rubber items for a variety of Ferrari models should you ever have difficulty locating something. I bought quite a few items for my Dinos from them and they are very helpful. A lot of the specialist Ferrari parts suppliers source their items from them I believe.
