Not usually a fan of Morettes but for some reason they work so well on white Corsas in my opinion. Yours and Djgritt's look the absolute bee's knees. Great work on the mesh and carbon, really looks awesome.

The only thing I can see being possibly illegal with the indicators is how they are situated relatively central. Not sure on the legality of spacing from the centre of the car but I can't see or think of any other reason why they wouldn't be legal to be honest. They seem to be very visible when turned on.

So maybe there is one more expenditure on the car

Took it to ETS and explained to Mark what I wanted to happen with the exhaust, I knew he was going to get it spot on!






Now I can scrap my tyre and paint the rear ARB/beam up again
He also sorted a small issue up front where the hanger was, altered my hanging brackets on the back box and popped on two new rubbers for my back box

That'll give me some more clearance without having to worry.


That is now IT..........promise

That which was on the rear beam?
Other rubber did, yeah, the tyre withstood a lot more heat but did still melt slightly. Not enough to cause an issue IMO.
Its not needed now anyway, it was just an immediate resolution for one of many knocks and bangs.

Update -


Ever since I took this picture I've been thinking 'my days, lee was right, wtf are those brakes all about '


Sun was shining. So thought I'd crack on and get them sorted.


Before - vxr racer man blue


Now, the more mature matt black





Touched the backs up whilst I was painting -



Fin -



Checked the coilovers underneath their socks, all was good

Decided to play with the IronX too. Bearing in mind the G's haven't been off the car for a while, it was quite obvious what the result would be
Bloody smells though




Funky -

Little update -
Bought some Lamin-X a fair while back, but had my recent cycling accident so wasnt able to do much about it really.




Cut out


Feeling reasonably on the road to recovery atm and its not even the effects of the Codeine, Naproxen or Diazepam
So stripped the front of the car down today and did an overdue oil change.



Inner lamp done, just needed the water underneath to evaporate.



Job done



That should stop them getting stone chipped.

Oil change Sump plug for some reason, did NOT want to play and ended up looking very very sorry for itself

In the end, ended up smashing a 12mm ratchet spanner over it and it eventually with some persuasion decided to come out



Still appears to be doing something of some benefit though! So another shall be on order to revert back to a magnetic plug next oil change
