Was originally planned for this weekend, But had to postpone the chopping as I've got other business to attend to, so will be the end of next week now before I get chance to get it sorted.

Pop to Halfords and get some of their resin repair stuff with the mesh included, I used their fibreglass one on my old Hawk Scott Lowe splitter, fill from the rear to strenghthen and go about 100mm past the damage either side to really stiffen it up.

Then if the hole is visable fill with filler and then spray with Plastidip to achieve an oe look.

Hi was just cleaning the car (330s) and around the rear lights there is green algi or moss between the lights and the body what's the best way to wash or get it out? Or how easy is it to remove the lights and the bits on the boot.

Cheers
Lee

The removal is pretty easy.
Interior boot trim just pops out, there are 3 bolts for the light if I remember correctly, and one of them is awkward to get at.


For what its worth, I also have green crap on the rear lights on my 330S.
I presume you have hedges/trees near where you park

I've always managed to power wash mine out when it's built up, run some undiluted car wash in there to soften then power wash away.

Question Rear LED Reflectors

I've got myself some of the reflectors but I have no idea how to get the original ones out or how to run the wires to that I can tap the existing ones, can anyone shed any light on it? I spent most of the day searching and can only find pictures of cars that have had it done with people saying how easy it is...
thanks in advance!
