No, but mine was going straight over the thick soundproofing stuff you have taken out, it should be fine to put it over bare metal, if you have any, as if you put it on thick enough, it becomes water tight, so just put it on thick, but I've about used 1 litre already just doing the floor and boot, thats how thick I'm putting it on :crazy: .

How much did 1 litre cost you? I got mine for 8.99 a can from the place near the train station, but could probably do with getting it a few quid cheaper from elsewhere!

& man you should have removed that sound-deadening! I've only chipped off one rear floor pan & the bottom of the rear seat and it weighs a ton! gonna finish chipping off the other rear floor pan and then weigh it up.

Less it weighs = faster you go :crazy:

Supercharger = faster you go :crazy:

1 litre cost me £3.99, I didn't really want to remove it because it just seems to much hassle for what its worth, and I'm trying to make it quieter inside anyway.

Supercharger + engine rebuild = Faster I'm going to be than you :o :crazy:

Well I've just sent a PM to Miles_better_minis about getting one of their smooth boots, just waiting for a reply.

But now I have been looking on eBay at car alarms, and some seems quite good, but now I'm tempted to get central locking :crazy: , and get a soleniod onto the smooth boot, I don't now what to do now.

Just bought some Cobra subframes of eBay for £73, that includes postage, which I thought was a good price been as they got for £40.89 each on Mini Sport, without postage :wub: .

Just need the interior finished now so I can get them in :D .
