MrSloanes Posted October 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 Was bored so decided to clean my rear mud flaps, then decided to use the left over paint from my centre caps to spray them matching! After a hour of sanding them both down so they were smooth and then painting them etc, this is what they come out like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSloanes Posted October 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 (edited) Added the stickers to the centre caps and personally I think they look 200% better now Edited October 19, 2011 by MrSloanes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSloanes Posted October 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 Quick update: compensation cheque arrived Saturday, popped into my savings account yesterday which hopefully should be cleared by next Monday! (Yorkshire building society). So Monday will be the order coilovers day! Possibly tyres for the wheels day! The Saturday will be coilovers on, wheels on day! Then the following week, respray week! Oh I can't say how excited I am! Just don't want to take the wheels back off after a week or so for winter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSloanes Posted October 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 Yeah things seem to be finally moving! Getting a full service on Saturday and going to clean the throttle body, see if that solves my running problem then roll on next week!
