new fuel sender unit fitted, old one was a dodgy yellow colour, new one is nice and white....anyways, no real big difference in guage when fitted, maybe a slight notch to make me feel better but i gues only driving around will let me know, hopefully.

anyways heres 2x close ups of wheels and nut covers now fitted.

Did you go to a dealer for the nut covers mate? How much do they charge as mine are slightly worn!

i went to my dealer.....colin, aha he had them in his toolbox at work, says hes had them since he worked at bickets, thats me only find this out, they are a perfect match of colour to the wheels

NO!! haha

Tbh, the red drums let the car down in my opinion - the amount of chavved up Corsas and Clios I see with painted front calipers and rear drums is unbelievable. Don't pretend you've got performance brakes all around, unless you actually do! Black is the way to go! :lol:
Just an opinion!

What you still doing up, anyway? It's awfully late, don't you know! :D

im not doing them red to make them look like performance brakes, because if they were performance brake (they wouldnt be drums) sooooo, im just making them look better than rusted metal, say what u will but black drums to me are as good as no drums at all, just looks empty at the back, each to there own!! but tbh its a silly thing to be pointing out and picking on considering the work thats gone into the car....

Dude, dude, dude! Just the poster above mentioned it, and that was always on my mind, so I thought I'd get it out. No offence man, don't mind me. Car's gorgeous overall, don't worry! Already said so in an above post. No offence meant!
