Brilliant!
Where's the reservoir?

In a stainless holder bolted to the back of the battery cradle. Iam going to paint the bottle black to blend in and not look like a drinks bottle.

Ok My rear LCR calipers have finished being fully refurbished with red polymer coating and new seals, bleed screws etc and look brand new from the state they was in when i got them. Also got some EBC Ultimax 256mm vented discs and some Ferodo DS2500 pads, so should be a good rear upgrade from the standard ones. Not sure if i should get some LCR rear disc shields or cut the lip of the FR rear ones ?

Also got some Porsche Boxster S 3.2 Brembo rear calipers to go on the front but will only allow for a 312mm disc, so iam gonna get rid of them and either go for the Boxster front calipers for a 330mm disc or the R32 calipers for a 335mm disc.

I would recommend getting the LCR disk guards if u can - I had the lip cut off my FR ones and it makes the rear disks look quite small.

yes was thinking that, will have to get a price for them from the dealers, bet there not cheap though but will have a more OEM look.

hear there a pain to change too

I've started putting my air fresheners on the pollen filter to get the smell through the vents.
Stops the car being overpowering of air freshener from being sat with the magic tree in it.

did think of that too afterwards, and its the cheapest and easiest way of doing it lol

did you put it on top of or under the filter ?
