Well, finally I have taken it off the road for a couple of weeks while a few improvemets are made, namely:
Repaint the wheels in anthracite, but properly. We have them in a mates garage and every evening spending time rubbing down any damage, keying them up with papers/scotch pad. Got the base coat , thinners and laquer and a nice big spray gun!.
Eibach springs which should drop it nicely
A full paint correction and detail. The paint started to get a bit swirly over the winter. Got myself a load of Blackfire products from Polished Bliss which should sort it.
1st stage:
Looking a bit sorry for itself in the garage on stands.
Degrease and clean the wheel arches and polish the calipers - Sparkly Brembo's
Wheels should be done by the weekend and the springs, then weather permitting a 2 day detail. I'll get more pics up as it progresses. Oooh it'll feel like a new car
