got some parts from autopolishedparts on ebay. get a bag or haribo with the order as well which is odd, but nice.







rocker cover bolts and oil cap. oil cap is virtually impossible to photograph due to the shine on it. mental.



got a new rocker cover gasket as well. so thats everything needed for when i paint or polish the rocker cover. need to go and see if its had the -10 take off welded on to it this week one night actually.

hopefully get the rocker cover sorted this week as im on a course from work the rest of the week so will be finishing earlier i hope.

i prefer to drive it than wash it. although if i get it painted over winter i think i may start to look after it a lot more in the future.

fitted the oil cap, hopefully it photos better from a distance. its seriously a shiny bit of tackle. ignore the broken rocker cover....



havent fully decided wether or not to get rocker cover polished or paint it silver yet. not really favouring one over the other.

mistakenly late night purchased this off ebay thinking it was a metal plug cover as it didntr have the griffin badge next to the word vauxhall. probably actually looks better not having the griffin bit there so will sort the silver out and give it a fit.
