Hi all,

My r32 has developed some rust around the rear windscreen, and a few bits in other odd places... So I have decided I am go for a full respray on the thing.

I have bought a few of the external trims so far now I am down to buying the the front and rear window moulds. 

So my question, Is it better to go genuine on all the moulds or go for the generic type? I will be replacing both front and rear windows too.

Hey man. Any luck with the seals? .

I still haven't had the car painted yet however I have decided to buy everything genuine for the side of the car (New 1/4 windows, Weather strip retainers ect) for the rear I plan on using a aftermarket rubber seals for the top and the sides that will then connect to the factory lower window seal, From the photos it looks better than factory in my opinion 

As for the front I feel like the aftermarket seals will do the job for that too

    • Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.
    • Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
    • Looks fancy But after having a look, prior to its installation, I noticed that the yellow looking power steering reservoir would look crap next to this So I have this incoming..... Much cheaper than the Moroso and has great reviews (yeap, it's a Moroso knock off)
    • Can we place bets? My money is on there is always the option to use the 1 way profile. So the diff is either 2 way and 1 way, or 1.5 way or 1 way. 
    • I also used Knox driveshafts when I the slip yoke T56 to the 3bolted TR6060 type. I believe I was one of his first jobs as it literally changed hands when I was there, started by the old owner and finished by the new. Everyone seemed pretty great about it. So wasn't shy/seemed pretty knowledgeable when dealing with weird custom people like me.
