indeed. The list never stops growing and it will never end. Its the joys of car ownership. Endless amount  of modifying followed by endless amount of repairing!

Took some new pics today. Car needs a wash, and a decent polish which I will do before oxford meet ofcourse  :cool:
Bought a new cylinder head coolant flange as the current one leaks like a sieve.
Things i need to do are VR splitter, gti one is well past it's time as you can see in the pics, need to get new tyre (s), wheels aligned, and needs lowering! I'l see what i can sort out money wise, ive got tax to renew in june and i need to do the tyres aswell, exhaust wise id like some more grunt so back box is on the list aswell, see how that goes. Also need to go scrappy and get some bonnet lifters, need to change the method my bonnet stays up  :tongue:

yup need back to black, and some wheel brake dust cleaner as some of it is incrusted into the wheel.

ive tried that kiwi boot polish but didnt really do much...WD40, or engine oil works a treat. Im gonna try boiled linseed oil next see how that goes. If not i'l have to dish out some money for WOW or something.

Chemical guys back to new gel is perfect & very reasonable price too! :afro:

I'd steer clear of WD40 & definitely engine oil as it runs when it gets wet & will damage your paint! :)

Black WOW has got mixed reviews like most products, but is just far too expensive IMHO.
