Forgotten how rewarding it is doing these bits yourself8-)

Nice job Tim, matching colour all round now :)

I was surprised how rewarding it is to do bits like this (on any car). Once you have the confidence and know-how to do these sort of jobs, they're normally pretty easy. Worst part is worrying about rusted/seized bolts!
