| Spoke to the bodyshop and finally its having its proper polish and all the new vinyl fitted to the door pillars this week and will be ready for collection at weekend.
Shame I decided to split the F28 to fit a quaife this week as thats going to need sorting before I can start on the car. | |

| Unfortunately never managed to get it collected this weekend as the guy with the low loader is on holiday for a couple of weeks so it won't be back till the 25th.
Picture of the new wheels and tyres for the drag strip. Unsure what colour to get them done? Also not sure whether the Toyo R888's are going to foul the coilovers as they have really chunky sidewalls.  
Also powdercoated fearless strut brace that some people may think I have spoilt.  | |

| Do the wheels white, it always makes a great contrast with black cars, plus it will work well on Cesaro's as they can look quite motorsport orientated!

| Christ, I didn't realise you had got it back!?!
You need to do something about those door handles, they are letting it down. Oh, I thought you had sold the buckets in the end?
Looking great, I was begining to think it would be ongoing forever! | |

| I heard about all the bits you've been buying, thought your car was mint at PV apart from the engine as I kept telling you but glad to see that is being sorted now.
Might pop up to Chris's to see it as he's only up the road. | |
