It's more touch up pen and wax than original paint

Not much happening at the moment. Just bought myself a new daily driver to replace the Megane. Clio DCi returning 60+mpg and £30 per year tax!!



Update:

Been having a few problems recently with my recirc. I fitted an Evo 9 metal BOV as I suspected my plastic one was leaking. Sure as hell, after fitting it, I'm now seeing 1.85bar overboost! It should sit at 1.6bar so I have put the plastic one back on now until I can afford to get the car remapped/dyno'd

Went to a local JDM meet and the photographer took this



The car is still showing relentless beading from the last wax. Well, the paint doesn't see any poor weather and is under a snuggly cover, in a garage so.....



And now, the bad news. Clipped a curb whilst taking a corner and with stretch tyres and the fitment, the wheels didn't stand a chance :cry: :wallbang: So so gutted, felt sick...

Na man just took a corner too deep, only kissed it but these wouldn't stand a chance. Luckily the paint is fresh and barely 5 months old so should blow in OK.

Erm might do mate if the weather is on our side

Finally! After much nagging from my mates, I finally got some carbon rear bumper extensions to finish off. Got these for a bargain on here, very chuffed!

...and finally these because I like them! Thanks for reading :smthumbup
