Is that bird droppings or the lacquer peeling? it is lacquer peeling?

Bird drop stains shouldn't be a problem. The Orange peel is possible to get out with a machine however it does require some work. Otherwise you would need to possible wet sand the peel areas which I wouldnt dare to do on other peoples cars...yet :)

Car looks fab btw.

Yeh got a green cotton panel filter in at the weekend, made a decent difference, it seems to be running smoother and helping to turbo to spool slightly earlier. Next on the list are lights, whether I get decent bulbs or fit hids (havent looked into how much of a hastle they are to fit yet) then lower S3 strut brace and look into a brake upgrade. Still happy with it at the mo? Enjoying the diesel side of life?
