spent most of wednesday on the car, it REALLY needed polished, was really faded and matt.

washed the body, clayed it, and used a rotary with autoglym paint renovator, brought it up well, then finished it with some meguairs gold class wax, also gave the wheels a polish as they were going a lil yellow..

really disappointed the shine hasnt come up in the pics, need a new camera i suppose.

nothing new on the car to report, really enjoying it now, such a good car to drive, handling is awesome, and 9k is fun

replacer the side indicator lenses, replace te stcikers at the back (if poss?)

put a normal rear plate on if it will fit

i dont really want to change any bits, including side repeaters.

normal plates look stupid as its an import recess.
