Cheers mate
Today removed single wiper conversion as i got sick of it  . been trying to sort out little ningles with the car today such as
washer jets keep falling out. ordered new ones that fit on wiper blades
bonnet doesnt lock down as the popper isnt high engough. need to replace the hinges so it will lock as currently pins are doing all the work- hinges i missed delivery so theyre waiting at post office
Bonnet flew up a few days ago and cracked a bit of the side. this needs glueing back on
rear interior pannel keeps falling off so need to replace pins for this
tyre could do with changing. However im buying some alloys now anyway  
i ALso fit the exhaust in a hurry and didnt secure it properly. went on a 80 mile trip and 2 miles from home it dropped off -.-. so that needs refitting asap for now my peco's back on
Juast little cheap niggles that are annoying me tbh
In other news i removed the chevrons and fitted a alarm

didn't the bonnet pins stop it flying up? Get some aerocatches as they are lockable so the bonnet wont go anywhere

NEW LIST OF MODIFICATIONS FOR FEB 10
locking aerocatches
oil catch tank
alloy wheels
pink brake calipers
ALSO FIXED ALL LITTLE NIGGLES. BONNET POPPER NOW LOCKS BONNET DOWN AS IT SHOULD. INTERIOR PANNEL IS REFITTED WITH CLIPS AND I SPENT A WHOLE DAY AND NIGHT WITH THE DENTED BONNET ON SO I COULD REPAIR THE FIBREGLASS ONE HAPPY DAYS

Wheels need spraying + maybe roof?
Then you need to move onto tarting up your interior and bay

Yeah dunno what can really do tho tbh it's already coded and I've put a blue bulb in the interior light. Wouldn't mind a race wheel and some digital dials tho. As in digital and no clocks. But that's just a thought. what can I do for interior? And the bay isn't that just samco hoses and strut brace with a chrome mani and a painted alternator?
