Plastic weld them back into position as I/we do at the nano meets, there is always a bucket ready with some you can exchange your broken ones with then leave your broken one to be repaired

Fitted Zion with his summer wheels and new tyres all round, checked all fluids, plenums & Vis motors note the Stocktake self test buttons and gave both a good wash.

Before the wheel change Zion wearing his straights


Now wearing his 11 spokes

When I went to BigRuss a few weeks back he checked my plenums while I was there and he found standing water It took a few minutes for the water to drain once he rodded it.
So after a day of persistent rain yesterday and armed with the knowledge of how to do it I checked my plenums to find them bone dry

I decided while I had it all stripped, to do the spy hole mod using the really explicit guide on this site. It's so easy to do.
Now I'm all sorted so shortly I'll be buying a Jules guard to complete the job.
Thanks to all on the site who pass on this knowledge to us.

Well finally fitted the aftermarket wheels, and I think it looks okay... I know its not to everyones taste....

Still amazed how much room there is in the wheel arches...




Will have to get some better pics up, as it looks much better from different angles... side does not show how fat the tyres are, she has a nice stance now....

Much nicer on the 11 spokes... without a doubt... much classier...
