So I sent the rad back to driftworks and they told me it wasn't covered under warranty!!!

Here's the massive hole

They told me it had clearly been hit by something and broken. which is utter ********, but despite my best efforts it was pointless arguing. They were never going to replace it.

I have managed to find a second hand one for £70which I will be picking up tomorrow along with my vented wings.

Then it will be the mad dash to JAE. I have lots to do and not much time.

On a positive nite, these arrived so my wheels will actually fit!

Bit more progress tonight, removed the bumper and wings in preparation for the news ones.

Decided to rub them down and paint them up

Not sure why, but it makes me feel better!

I also put on a few stickers, because everyone likes stickers!

Right, well today was about the most productive I've had in ages!

Yesterday I took my A1 van to get some bits

Today I got my Tyres fitted and balanced...

With a touch of stretch to keep Stav happy!

Then I got round to fitting the new rad

It has some decent piping too, compared to previous this should work much better.

Tested the temp sensor and gauge

Then moved onto bodywork

The paint goes on really well for a rattle can primer. I am now considering doing the entire car over the winter. (Silver just isn't me!)

Jobs for tomorrow include -

Wiring in new temp gauge
Wire in new fan to a switch
Finishing painting front wings and rear overfenders
Possible start cutting out the rear arches, but we will see how things go!
