Picked my wheels up from the refurbers the other day, had them blasted and coated in a metallic sparkle silver finish. Fitted original Ford Racing 909 valves and caps, also had 2 new yoko paradas fitted to the fronts and the tyre logo aligned with the valves :)

Sourced a set of original Ford Racing Puma floor mats, these are as rare as hens teeth, they are basically brand new and have only been fitted for shows-

WOW! I know who I'm asking to do my Lupo!!!

I think that bar you polished up is for the linkage to the brake servo, similar idea to what Vauxhall did on the Nova, only on this, it probably works!!

Started cleaning and detailing last night, spent a good couple of hours with 12yan.

The car was washed with TBM, clayed with AF CLay Lube and AF fine clay, washed again, and clayed again.

We will be machine polishing, applying a sealant and wax over the next two days (photos and write up to come)

Also cleaned and seal my wheels with AF Mint Rims, awesome product and smells fantastic which is always a bonus!
