No major updates my flip key is working as in flipping  :grin: no buttons working but still looks better than the standard key.I also bought some new covers for my quads as the paint had reacted on my old set the new ones are look smoked when there on but there kinda clear look far better anyway.Im also on the look out for a new steering wheel I wwould like a momo 280 but as you know there not cheap Ive been watching a momo course on ebay which is pretty cheap might go for that.Hopefully summer time im having the front end painted well bonnet and wings moneys a little tight at the moment anyway a piccy of my new covers thanks for looking..

Bought some Carbon vinyl to do some bits inside the car might do the grab handles on the door and a few dash blanks see how I get on with it.I gave the old gurl a wash down the jetwash today didnt have time to polish her but after the last polish it comes up mint after a good wash few piccys  :wink:

Thanks for the comments  :wink: I have trimmed the rears with the angle grinder they dont catch now unless I have weight in the back and hit a real big bump and the car bounces they just touch but thats as its low.The fronts catch on full lock but I havent touched the fronts at all and I could just rase the coilovers a touch and I would have no issues.If I was running 195 profile tyres I dont think it would catch at the front but cant really afford a new set of tyres when the ones on it are brand new.I will be removing all the arches and either rolling them or get the grinder out then stick the arches back on I would like to space them out.
