yep, mine will be defo be getting freshened up

Interested in how you did the seats Adam? I know a shit hot painter if you need one for the bumper.

I found out my local dealer fooked a nipple on my APs when changing the fluid so I will need to sort that out. Ordered a new set of AST rear springs so they will be going on at some point.

Shimmy, wire wool and a wire brush will sort the tubes and rattle clips, put a bit of hammerite on the clips, the tubes are alloy and clean up nicely.

I could have predicted that.

Get your grity sponge and jet wash out then.

Detailing, Shimmy style.

Well i'm going for complete front end respray from windscreen forward, lower 1/2 on both sides to fix the shot blast look & rear bumper.
Also have a dog inflicted dent to get taken out of the drivers door.

Air box has a snapped screw which i need to extract and I also have the rear seat issues.

Reading that back it seems i have trashed the car this year

Nope you've just used it that's all. Cars are getting on a bit now so bound to show signs of use. Better than garage queen you're too scared to use though

Cor I've got loads to do to keep mine nice and tidy over the winter, plus I need to clear the garage from all the bits i'm accumulating!

Fit my Nitron Coilovers, 12mm Spacers, RTAB's, Poly ARB Bushes, Performance Friction Pads, Pollen & Air Filters...oh need a Steering Wheel Re-Trim and a Wheel Refurb in OEM finish whilst she's in bits...

Roll on the Spring
