Subject: [doc] Urgent fixes 
required.....
Dear All,
 
            
Been keeping Lola off the road, due to the grit, leaf mulsh and puddles 
found at this time of year on the roads all around Bath. However, 
something has come up and I need to see if I can find fixes for a couple 
of visual glitches with the car. If anyone can get hold of the following 
for me, or knows people that have these things lying around, email meas a 
matter of urgency. I also need advice on a few bits and boobs. Here 
goes:
 
            
Does any one know if there is a grey glovebox lid around, ready to be 
swapped out for a grey glovebox lid, with the vinyl coming up on the side 
nearest the windshield? I really can't fix this thing up and just want to 
find a replacement.
 
            
Does anyone know where I can obtain the black leather surround for the 
manual gear-stick, mine has some small but unsightly holes? 
 
            
Can some-one recommend a company in the south that has successfully 
sandblasted, and repainted their wheels for them? I'm looking for a 
lacquer finish and really decent price? Any one have any 
ideas?
 
            
For touching up small chips on the fascias, can anyone recommend a good 
touchup paint/stick. I know fascia colours vary, but if you can remember 
the colour found on PSO, it would help. How is it best to match paints if 
unsure?
 
            
How do you remove the glass fronts of the headlights. I need to cleanup 
the metal surrounds, and give the insides of the lights a clean. Is it 
really just thos screws in-between the lights, or am I simplifying? 
 
 
            
My front fascia currently has droopy parts over the head light. I've heard 
all the hairdryer fixes, but how is the best way to attempt this. Is this 
best done when repainting the whole front fascia, or can you do it with 
keeping the paint untouched? Can it be done whilst the fascia is on the 
car? (Couldn't think how, but worth a shot)
 
            
Whats the best way to get an even black finish on the rear louvers? 
Likewise for the strip above the front windshield? Does this need to be 
painted, if so, which paint would other recommend? Does it need stripping 
and a primer, or will a new coat bond to the old coat?
 
            
Is it possible to use any sort of colour restorer, cleaner on the grey 
vinyl? Mine has some patches which aren't quite perfect? 
 
            
What is the fastest, most effective way to clean the engine bay? I need it 
free from dust, grease and dirt? 
 
 
            
All this is for PSOs first photo shoot in a months time or so. I really 
want her to look fantastic. All help is greatly appreciated as 
always.
 
            
By the way. Got a text message from a friend that works as bar manager at 
Jamie Olivers new London restaurant "15". He let slip in a conversation 
that he really like the Delorean he saw at an event he attended a month 
before, guess who's Delorean that was. You betcha, I was well 
proud.
 
            
Regards to all,
 
            
Stevo.
