What have you done to your car today ???

[Wezwoz]

Fitted new pressed plates looks a lot better now

 

[Karlos182]

Cleaned my seat belts using the guide on here. Came up lovely after 11 years of grubbiness.

 

[LeeRS]

Cleaned before it goes into hibernation for a week.

 

[Jme34]

Cleaned up the engine bay a bit. Wire-brushed inlet mani/fuel rail guard, metal polished lettering. Wiped engine cover, added battery cover, sprayed fuse-box silver to match engine cover, polished up air-con pipes. Now needs a new coolant expansion tank and I'm on the fence as to whether to spray the battery cover and/or the air box silver too
Oh and I got a new gearstick insert too, it's the little things that make a difference [emoji6] haha

 

[AcidicDavey]

Newer car

I think insurers make it up to be honest!

 

[Ash1751]

Got new dunlop rubber all round and got turinis fitted at the same time.

Then gave the windscreen a quick spray and one of my wipers (finally) snapped so have ordered some bosch aeroblades.

 

[JPJ89]

Re-insured it for the following year with Brentacre again, top service, premium reduced a further £80 from last year :smile:

 

[Jme34]

Did this

Unsure at the moment, plus it needs the original style light cluster, which doesn't clip into place properly in these housings

 

[KitsonRis]

Gave the car a once over before track day at Llandow tomorrow

 

[Kirkyboy]

Well 2nd day of owner ship.
I wet flatted and cut back both headlights, spent 10 mins on each light, a massive difference.
Cleaned scorpion tips on exhaust.
Passenger side wing mirror, knackerd, bought a black one from scrappy, filled it, primed it, sprayed it and lacquered it.
Here's some photos.
The old wing mirror is available, all electrics etc work, but is in two bits, where gaffa tape is, in arctic blue.

Bloody quick delivery as usual.

 

[Karlos182]

Found out my headlamp washers aren't working. Pump is fine, but testing it then made the jets leak, so off with the bumper to stop the dribbling. Still no headlight washer jets.

Already done that. No bolts holding mine on so a two minute job. Still can't figure out why my headlamp washers aren't working though!

 

[Daz...]

Paid @MicKPM a visit to have timing belt, dephaser, water pump etc. Sounds and goes better now!

Looks clean. Get a project thread up

 

[Karlos182]

I removed my non-working headlamp washers this morning, and replaced them with a couple of rubber grommets. Not too bad methinks, and a whole lot cheaper than carbon blanks!

I think 99 is the active number of brain cells personally.

 

[mikeclio99]

[R3k1355]

Tiny bit, but deserved for the yellow fogs.
