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

Here's the massive hole
[Image: myruvu6y.jpg]

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.

[Image: eru3ynah.jpg]

Decided to rub them down and paint them up

[Image: 3y7yquva.jpg]
[Image: 6eva7usa.jpg]

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
[Image: a7etujaq.jpg]

Today I got my Tyres fitted and balanced...
[Image: je7anyqu.jpg]

With a touch of stretch to keep Stav happy!
[Image: agynybup.jpg]

Then I got round to fitting the new rad
[Image: u7emybuz.jpg]

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

Tested the temp sensor and gauge
[Image: erasy5e8.jpg]

Then moved onto bodywork
[Image: ma4azazy.jpg]

[Image: 8uraveqa.jpg]

[Image: ujypytuh.jpg]

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!
