You always have to make things difficult for yourself a!? :grin:

Good luck on the retest! :afro:

This always seems to be the case. Nothing goes smoothly.

Thanks mate, should go through tbh. If it doesn't, its not the end of the world.

OK OK.

Well they didn't do the retest yesterday. I still needed to do the front nearside sill and rear offside brake (think it just needs resetting). I haven't time to do these so I left for the garage and they didn't have time lol. So its back in today :(

Meant to be in the spray shop today, so its not looking likely that I'll get paint for the SWDubs mega meet on Sunday; really can't see the spray shop sorting it out in a day, they're usually busy and never pull their finger out when they need to.

If all goes well, I should have partly fresh-painted car, 12 months MOT and if I have time, I'll align it again. Going to do the tracking and get that perfect (knocked it out a little when I did the steering rack boot). Then play with the camber and it set where I want it.

Then its all the little touches to get it ready for JKM :cool:

No, f**king thing! :D
Not sure if the new knocking noise is a top mount now, it might just be the new catch can knocking on the turret as its not 100% fixed and the knocking doesn't have a pattern of when it happens.

You got it right! First time anyone has :D Its the new name for a few of us around here. Sort of starting a local club(ish). Every dub around here is always changing and never done lol. Been working on logo's, but not sure on what to go for. A lot of the designs are sh!t, but I need to keep it simple so it can be engraving and vinyl cut, etc.

Yeah, cheers mate. Not the end of the world, I'm just trying to get everything sorted for Sunday. I would just wait til next week otherwise! The paint can wait really, MOT is more important though!!!

:D projectninetynine, had a few names before but I like this one. Already made a few lime green stickers lol, just need to make a few little changes. Then spread the word :cool:

I'm looking forward to the color change too!!!! :laugh:

:D That's my reasoning.

Yeah f**king cars, like women. Both b!tches. Just got to remember, "You f**k a b!tch, don't let a b!tch f**k you"

Anyway! Found some pics on FB of the other night:











So got scene stickers on the wings and although there is no pics of it, primer on the rear arches lol. I just hope the spray shop can sort it tomorrow!

Not my car, but was on FB too and I thought it was funny:
