Got my new flip key cut today. Got it done at a little independent shop. The guy in there said that Timpsons wouldn't do it for some reason. I hadn't tried there, I'd rather use an independent who knows what they are doing. Got it home, swapped the transponder, linked the remote to my car and works a treat. Happy days!

Both front doors been resealed. Passenger side done yesterday, no water on the sill! Drivers side done today. Not checked it yet but I'm sure it'll be fine.

Changed my gear gaiter for an alcantara one. Really need to change my gear knob as well but not really seeing anything I like.

Nice, looks super smooth and glossy.
Was considering doing mine but I'd have to take the lid off to check the level :p

I check my levels once every 2-3 weeks anyway. My washer bottle thats on now is so worn and grey you can't see the level anyway i Always have oil and coolant in the boot ready in case the dash starts lighting up like xmas too!
