Not today but on the weekend....

Waxoyled and fitted a new wing
Waxoyled where the wing goes and underneath the sill covers
Made up some pipe and refitted my exhaust
Sorted out the dodgy handbrake mechanism
Wet sanded and polished out some key scratches on the bonnet
Bumper-cared all of the external plastics
Fitted bonnet struts
Fitted new boot carpets
Adjusted the boot latch pin so it now shuts properly with a nice click
Drilled out and retapped the hole for what used to be the hub retaining screw for one of the front discs, then fitted a new one
Tightened the PAS belt
Contemplated fitting a new outer CV boot but decided to have a cup of tea instead
Went to bed content with my productive weekend  :smug:
