Rabster Get some if the dr colourchips kit works on stone chips and some small cracks as a fix instead of full respray

Heh not sure it'd cover the couple hundred chips... I had a chips away guy look at it and he suggested just getting the while thing resprayed ...

Well I have lacquer pealing on my bonnet, a matt rear wing and four dents in my roof. So you won't be the roughest car there!

Looking great Ormi. I like the way your car is so modded, you are now doing things "for the hell of it," and "well, why not?" :LOL:

Will this improve performance mate?

Lots of hard work now ormi with the polishing but it will be worth it.

The oil colour and condition does not look to bad from the photo, at least you will have peace of mind its changed and at correct level, what are you refilling it with, sae 75/90 gear oil?

Good work mate. Looks very much like what I did last week! Cleaned the inlet up a bit, (and the intercooler piping) and just bought a file this morning, to smooth it a little too. But I cannot get the outlet off. I do not even know what tool is required, but it is one I do not have! How did you remove the one bolt with the tricky access, in the centre of this pic, it's doing my head in!!!
