To do... TIP, Tints, Refurb wheels matte black, Exhaust, FMIC, Remap, 312mm brakes, paint calipers yellow. Just a few ideas! :think:
The calipers need to be done! And the expense would be minimal. I bought my red paint at Halfords for £9, and I'm sure they sell yellow paint too. Just a thought. :whistle:

You're back MargheD, seems like you have been gone ages! :) Yeah, calipers might be next... its just being bothered and finding the time as I want to do it properly!
 
Yep, I've been back to Italy for a while and then Germany (unfortunately not for the Ring. :( )
It's good to be back! :)

The only thing that bothered me with the calipers was having to wait so long between one coat and the other and then for it all to dry, it's a monkey's job really, but it'll take most part of an afternoon. :blink:
 
Filter bracket

Made up a bracket for my open cone filter today. Used the original that Damoegen made me and adapted it slightly with a universal bracket that I bought from ebay. Painted it matte black so it blends into the engine bay.

Mines a 55 reg (end of September registered) with 52k miles. I bought it at 22k miles in Jan 08! Its just my long commute that racks up the mileage (30 miles to work, 60 miles a day) and playing cricket all over the county in the summer doesn't help...
