Worth noting the Opel Grill wasn't on it when I bought the car! Put it on within half hour of having it home! Had a standard grill painted black :/

Cleaned my engine bay today and tidied a few other bits.

Went to take my car round the block to see if my work on the exhaust had reduced knocking, and it did

But when I arrived home I noticed this slight problem..

Visit to the scrap yard got me some black lower door pockets but they didn't have the holes for the windows swithces so got the dremel and worked my magic:

Nice new motor you've got there, think it looks good on those wheels aha first time I've seen a tyre do that, normally alright on that sort of stretch.
