Yeah mines curved at both end too... I removed it yesterday and gonna give the clarke rubber thing a go today :D

Cool i thought it was that, i took it off yesterday and now its even more screwed. Thanks for the photos vietorious they say a thousand words, now i just have to be bothered to do it but at least the rain has stopped.

How did u take it off?

I sprayed my windscreen wipers on sat (was very gay with the rain cause i had to drive to get more spray paint :) ) anyways you have to take off both windscreen wipers which is easy, and in the engine bay you will see a long rubber thing going from the drivers side to passengers side which is sitting on the plastic you wanna take off.

So without breaking any of the clips take this rubber off then the plastic you want has clips holding it down so put your fingers under it and once again without breaking the clips pop it off, its not hard you just have to be careful.

I didnt paint mine and dont know what you should use.

I sanded mine back to get rid of bumps, then cleaned then if i can remember correctly i cleaned them with metho, then sprayed them with an undercoad that makes the paint stick better, then used matt black spray paint, or mapp black? cant remember lol.

Anyways when u go to buy it tell the guy what its for and he should be compitent to guide you in the right path.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
