All the edges have been coloured that's why I could fit them back on so the car is painted with the panels in the right place and the paint can sit as it should if you know what I mean

Haven't posted on here for a while... Today I took my car back to the garage that fitted my winter tyres because one of them wouldn't hold pressure. No punctures or cracks so a new valve, a good wire brush of the rim and lots of bead sealant later, I think we are sorted. No charge despite the fact that I had the tyres fitted in November, cheers Blackcircles!

That's good customer service!

I thought so. They have their own fitting station here in MK, just does tyres and it's not a 3rd party garage like all there other places. I like it

Well today I had a busy day!
The RX had decided it's back box did not want to be joined to its flange anymore on Monday. I had hastily wrapped some steel sheet around it and then held it in place with jubilee clips. A bodge but it held and made the car sound reasonable for the rest of the week.

Well today once I'd been out shopping with the family I went to fix it properly. I took the box off, welded the flange back on, also welded up a hole that was in the box, and welded the tip back on as that decided to fall off as well!
Lots of paste over the top to ensure it seals!

I could get a new one off eBay for £150 but messing with cars has made me cheap and if I can fix it at home I will lol.
I then epoxied my new projectors into the IS200's headlights and will hopefully put them back together tomorrow once it's set.

Then I started the mark two version of another project I'm doing on the IS, but till it's finished I'll keep it a secret!

Took my car out the garage for a party.
Now it's sitting outside in the cold feeling sorry for itself :crying:
