Absolutely fantastic guide! Even my brother, a complete and utter muppet would be able to follow it! And about the camcover, I've painted mine to the same colour as the body, although it was just a quick job and I knew it wasn't going to last (cheap and rubbish clearcoat). And it just makes me wonder, since there seems to be a lot of issues with magnesium corrosion of those camcovers, isn't the process of polishing them going to speed it up? Don't get me wrong, I love the looks of it, my wife initially wanted me to do that in first place, but it's the corrosion I'm afraid of most.

Thank you for that. That will be good for future reference. My area that I am living in this job not suited for that type of work so. Instance I have nowhere else to go I'm thinking of having that done by a mechanic.
