Rear end 99% complete


The rear suspension is looking nearly complete now. The only thing missing is the rear brakes which are ready to go on too. Im currently waiting for places to go back to work IE: Autoshop - to buy pineapples and Wurth - to buy underbody stoneguard/deadener. After completly stripping the underside of the car I have already used a finer stoneguard from wurth that comes in an aerosol can. Luckily i only tried a reasonably small area with it as I found it to dry uneven and much more of a matt finish than i would have liked. It can be painted over though so im not sure if this is why its such a matt finish. After seeing how the aerosol style looked i was keen to go with the thicker stuff that comes in bottles you need to use with a special gun and air compressor. It dries a rough satin black, as it was used in some areas by the panel beaters so i know how it'll look but i think i want the whole underside finished in it for more of a uniform look.
