New Roc

Post by captainwow15 »

Got my new '91 GTII yesterday and it's fantastic, genuinely didn't know what to expect but its fantastic. I'll put some pics up later when i get chance to wash it when its stopped raining.

Couple of things though, I bought it and instantly i broke the aeriel, bashed it by accident and off it flew, snapped at the bottom, anyone know the best way to replace it?
Another thing, was all fine drove 200 miles yesterday but this morning on the way to work i parked up and got out and one of the BBS caps from the alloy had popped off, anyone know where i can get a replacement?

Cheers guys

good news - mostly!.

aerials - check the cars being broken section on here or one of the ebay car breakers.they do come up regularly.

centre cap, depends which bbs it is, simple plastic ones like on the RA wheel easily enough sourced from ebay or GPC. if its one of the other more substantial centre covers then worth trawling forums such as editon 38, wheel whores and of course ebay.

looking forward to the pictures.
