ive only gone and curbed my fricking ns f rim not happy:(

took the bonnet rasiers off. Woke up and did not like them any more. But now have a problem in that its weakened the bonnet catch, and wont close. Had to weld it to strenthen it, all sorted now :)

Mot due in nov, few things to sort out need new front screen bloody wagons chucked up a stone cracked it so not good.

need to upgrade to polly bushes on the front make it a bit stiffer starting to feel loose.
