  BG FF 182
Hi,
Thought i'd post some pictures up after i gave my BG a good clean today & to say that i've had this car for near on three years now & love every minute of it, couldn't imagine getting rid.
Anyway here's what i did today & a few little touches i've added over the last few weeks.
Washed with AG Bodywork Conditioner & a megs lambswool mitt, rinsed (no nozzle on the end of the hose) and dried with the Wooly Mammoth drying towel,
then i had the pleasure of trying out Auto Finesse Tripple for the first time, got on really well with it & thought it was seriousy easy to apply & buff off, thought i'd try something different after my PB Blackhole had finished, then finished up with some AG HD wax & megs tyre gel.
About a month before, i had applied C4 to all the trim & L1 leather care to the seats, fantastic products & worth every penny. I also went over my headlights twice with the 3M kit, fantastic results.

I always say to myself i should get some better location shots when it looks this clean, but my mum & dads drive way will do again...
Here's the pictures...

I purchased some new air box bolts from probolts.com as mine had gone all rusty, really tidys the bay up & whilst the air box was off i gave it a good coat of C4, photos don't do it justice really...

Then i purchased a new rear number plate from eBay was only £7, my old one had gone all manky & yellow

Last but not least i fitted my new steering courtesy of R-Sport cars LTD, my old one was seriously melted,

No pictures of it on the car as it was too dark & flash just makes everything look horrendous,

Any excuse to try out the panorama view on my new upgrade ;)
Just ordered a new coolant expansion tank today to replace my old yellow one, that'll make the bay look ten times cleaner, along with some Renault coolant, other than that i just plan on keeping this in as mint condition as possble & sorting out any problems that should arise in the near future,
thanks for looking, C & C are more than welcome.

P.s the 3M kit- do I need a polisher or is it all by hand ? Mine need doing asap

Lovely stuff mate. Nice immaculate interior also.

BG is hard to beat when clean. Suits the 182 so well. Very rewarding colour.

Was it easy enough to replace the number plate light unit with out damaging the rear bumper? I haven't really looked how to remove it but I know mines pretty yellow so i could do with a new one. Also what type of bulb are in them? I wouldn't mind a whiter light.

Lovely. Nothing beats a clean black car. Shame all you have to do is drive for 5 minutes and it'll be dirty
