I was waiting for the sensible answer of "just tucked it under the carpet incase" or "relocated the switch"

off to bodyshop on monday, mainly to rid it of the dredded rust on the rear arch wich has been annoying me since day 1. so whole new panel welded in because its a bit scabby all the way around, more noticably where it meets the bumper at the back
theres also a spec on the roof, which will be blasted back to bare metal and treated and repaired, theres also a small dent on the roof, again from when i bought the car so that ill also be got rid of
they're the main bits but whilst its in im getting holes in bumper smoothed
driver side wing replaced as old one has a crack and small crease in and has been repaired in the past
small mark on passenger door and all dings/scuffs repaired
so will hopefully come back imperfection free
new wing
new rear quater
and engine goodies for when the weather improves.
ITR pistons
ITR inlet and TB
gaskets
just need to order a new timing belt and hgh compession headgasket (0.5mm)and ill have everything i need
no doubt millions of pictures when its back from the bodyshop
