Not really a huge update but did a few things to the car yesterday;

Tow bar was a right pain to get off! But got it off in the end

Beading

That's all for now

Ah right there not to bad then, when I had magnet ones I just whacked them on when I was going out, the noise it made when there was dirt underneath didn't sound like it was helping the paint

Same here, i've never noticed it before, the car looks fine in daylight, you can't tell the difference in the colour, even if there is any, the wing looks fine and matches perfect. Like my bro said, we'll have a look tomorrow in the daylight too see if there is anything noticeable.

Looking good lads!

Little tips for the gaiters, get some decent glue and stick the little tabs at the base of the gaiter down into place. They way when you click the plastic surround into place they stay in place rather than sticking out
