Indeed they should be!
The other 'only extra area' work aswell is having the dash removed to catch bottom of screen under dash top and the front deformation panel etc.
(oh , and remove the engine so engine bay can be painted aswell

)
Exactly....and the pillars, floor pans, battery boxes, under the bed etc; anywhere I could see it in fact. Like I said, OCD...
nothing wrong with that

, if your pocket/time /will will run to it then its nice to do..

hi,Personaly nothing looks better on the autohomes komet,than keeping it the original 90d and with the 2" silver and choc brown and orange pin stripe,that was fitted on 88/89 and later,ive sold lots of t25s,ive got 3 komets at mo and they will all be kept the same,tho 2 of these are E regs,and were fitted with the wider stripes(Stripes in 3 different shades and a large komet on the rear wing),if i buy one thats not like it(had colour change,wrong decals) i always return to the later spec.The only difference i do is put the stripe on straight(unlike most of the original ones).Tho if i buy other conversions(x panel van conversions) in weird colours (weird to me)il always change colour to 90d (white).
