The weathershields stop the buffetting when you have the windows partially down and stop the seatbelt flapping around as well.
When I ordered mine when the car was new there was no weathershields available for the rear doors on an Astina.

Me a child, thats a bit of an understatement!

And its spelt Tuba, you nit wit!

Tubba makes me think of that gif image of that fat kid playing the drums lmao!

Phil, the flapping of the seat belt really pisses me off, so good it prevents it from happening

Ice88 · 22-01-2010, 06:21 PM

The seat belts flap when you go along? Never noticed :/

Can tell im blonde huh

marcs_sp20 · 22-01-2010, 07:23 PM

Nah its prolly the curls

My LaminX foglight film arrived!

And pretty damned fast I must say, only paid for them last week!

So before:

After:

Full shot:

With the lights on:

Im not really fazed by the light output of the fogs, as the HID's fills the void.

mussing · 22-01-2010, 08:15 PM

Is that stuff aesthetic or functional?

marcs_sp20 · 22-01-2010, 08:20 PM

Both, but moreso for aesthetic reasons for the time being, but will probably upgrade the bulbs down the track

Legally you cant drive with them on in QLD unless it really is foggy, so thought I might as well change the look of the car, which it really does!

Brisbane_boy · 22-01-2010, 08:53 PM

should change ur spotties to HIDs marc, would have awsome light then.

marcs_sp20 · 01-02-2010, 10:42 PM

cars getting some more attention as usual, and the missus dont mind!

Just ordered a pair of new tyres from St George Tyres for the same Sunew tyres I have on the car, as to me they are great all-round tyre, and cheap

Also have emailed Tony @ AWR to finalise quote/shipping for the 4pc mount kit, so I'll be solid once more!

Then after thats over with, it'll be clutch time, and hopefully have the car repaired before skidpan day, may not get it done in time, but here's hoping

Cheers
Marc

ScratchNSniff · 02-02-2010, 08:18 AM

Marc...what clutch you going with...OE Exedy replacement on Amazon was $60 shipped...

Mad Mat · 02-02-2010, 10:04 AM

really. :O got a link :P

marcs_sp20 · 02-02-2010, 10:42 AM

was that aus though?

ScratchNSniff · 02-02-2010, 01:21 PM

No...not Aus, but may be worth it anyways...I will find it for you...

marcs_sp20 · 02-02-2010, 01:33 PM

Cheers mate

If its not worthwhile, I may to get a HD Exedy unit for around $400 or thereabouts, and then installation of course

Its a never ending merry-go-round!

bourbon · 02-02-2010, 01:49 PM

install it yaself

hahahaha

marcs_sp20 · 02-02-2010, 02:42 PM

nah getting a family friend who works at a brake & clutch shop here in ipswich do it, and also machine the flywheel

bourbon · 02-02-2010, 03:05 PM

well thats a cheaper alternative than a workshop...they charge through the roof for clutch replacements...
