Few bits and bobs once the snow had gone...
dif oil changed
gearbox
engine oil and filter
handy little pump for fluid

Can you not remove the orange bits inside the headlamp? Would look a lot better.

Didn't know if/when the gearbox and dif had been done and for the sake of 30mins and a few quid. Also dismantled the gearstick mechanism and regreased. Loads smoother now! i like!

they're just 2 plastic discs, look like blanking plates off something. Just had them lying around and have no clue where they came from. Rubber grommets from halfords do the same trick though!
tyres fitted to wheels, thinking i'll drop to a 40 profile on front soon as looks funny on these wheels and then level the suspension out so it isn't as nose down... job for after the trackday in a couple of weeks

the wheels look amazing. Once you get the suspension level, it'll be perfect.

Not keen on the new wheels Lee, could look better once the suspension is sorted!
