Doing a great job there! Hope your fingers heal up. We all have slips and Im always cutting myself! Makes shaving a pain. Where did you get your stainless exhaust tips from!

Still interested if you have fitted them though. I'm more interested how they look in the heat shield with staggered pipes than the quality..

What a fantastic looking car mate! Liking all the bits you are doing, what did you use to clean your engine bay?

Hi Mark, thank you very much
I just used Gunk engine degreaser and pot washing brush, then clingfilmed sensitive parts then hose piped the engine down.. Plenty of rags and then to finish, some good old demoshine. I intend to go a lot more in to it as Jenny has one of those X5 mop steam cleaners, so will be getting that out (when shes not looking) Simon

Couple of bits today.
Re did the carpet trims all round using the eBay yellow fir tree clips. Replaced the missing scuttle clips, which now show up the plastic fade Started to build up the paint on a few chips and scrapes Another touch up in the morning to build it up slow I won't be fitting the exhaust trims as the look a ******. Also collected side skirts from Jake on the enthusiasts site after consuming a very nice curry in Woodall Spa I have some Biomorphic paint on order from Germany of all places! Under the bonnet again, fitted a K&N panel filter and adjusted the throttle cable to take any slack out. Time allowing, will change the bumper bolts tomorrow for stainless, but need to get some copperslip first. Simon
