T1R's should keep you stuck to the road too! Not doing things by halves, good to see :) Where are the coilies?

Thank GOD!! D90's on at last.. Paint doesnt look bad.. Looks fine.. You going black again? Best colour for these IMO..

That's just the trick of the camera, its truly awful. Yeah, going to stay black, whether I go gloss black like it is, or the pearlescent 'black magic' my other car was I'm not sure yet.

I've got T1Rs on all 3 sets of wheels, lol. Coilies are still on the old 1.4, which is sitting looking very sorry for itself, completely brown from all the dust, waiting for my brother to turn 17 later this month.

Nah, white would be a right pain to keep clean, and its been done a few times now.

In other news:

Bit worried that I've gone for the wrong width on the rears though. Went for 205/45 on an 8j, which gave a lot less stretch than I expected. Should really have gone for 195/45s. I think its gonna scrub.

Bad news. My Dad just came up to the office and said someone has hit your car. School Mum (I work on the same road as St Mildreds Infant School) has smacked it and driven off without leaving so much as a note.

Difficult to see, but the last pic shows how the wing and bumper have been pushed in.

Just been up to where it was parked when it was hit and there's not a single CCTV camera on the school at all. Did think about waiting when they all come back this afternoon but with so many cars coming round and with so many of them having scrapes and dings it would be hard to prove anything. Got the rub strip back on after some bending and persuasion, just left with all the white paint and scuff marks down the side now.

Turns out it was mainly superficial. This afternoon consisted mainly of this:
Dismantle front of Cupra.

Also tried on a D90 with a tyre. Didn't have a big enough socket for the Porsche bolts so only a trial fit.

Don't worry, they'll get colour coded eventually.

Yeah I'm down at Bexhill, driving up tomorrow night but got attendants meeting on Sat for Gill so I'm driving home Sat morning. You just there the weekend?

Nice! Haha, yeah, I'm there all weekend, but not thursday or Friday. Shame didn't get much of a chance to chat to you last weekend :( If you want a hand with the colour coding, not that its too difficult, I'm at the end of the phone :) Especially now I'm single again :(
