Love the black/white theme going on. So much so that everything you've done to yours so far, I'm doing too. A black/white grille surround and Cupra lights will finish it off nicely.

I hope you don't mind! :D

A lovely grey sky over Cornwall last week. The weather was terrible!

Bit of beading, was even better the next day on the roof and bonnet. But didn't get that.

Got some **** news today at work. Looks like we've got the risk of being made redundant, chances are it will happen so unless they employ me elsewhere in the company or i can find a job quick enough.

A small chance the car will have to go, my other half has said he'd help pay every month but i really really dont want to let it go.

Sorry to hear about the job front Char, same thing happened to me in November 09 but luckily I took out payment protection with the finance so I got to keep the Type R, I'd have been gutted to lose it. Took me up til about a month ago to get back into permanent employment! Just register with all the agencies and do whatever you can whenever you can. If I was able to run a Type R and go drinking most weekends for over a year I'm sure you can too lol

Yeah i'm wondering about the black or white grille surround actually too.

I'll have mine on soon enough so you can decide for yourself then ;)

Received my black mirror caps today, couldn't wait to get them on so tried as soon as I got home. (note the word tried...) As i'm off to Cornwall thursday so wanted them ready.

Couldnt find a way to get the caps off at all, got the mirror off (easiest way for me) gave up and had tea, then thought no i can't give up. Tried again, a good solid hour later they are on.

Nearly half an hour later on the drivers side resulting in one of the stalk things breaking, sore fingers, alot of talking to myself and removing a spiders nest (hate them!) and they finally went on.

I really hope i never have to change them again. Seriously, never lol.

I had my old ones off and the new ones on inside 2 minutes lol you should've done what I told you to do and use a screwdriver
