Just been doing bits and Bob here and there. Been meaning to get a good machine polishing setup and finally an opportunity came so I capitalised on that.

Also got a great deal on a 3inch cat back exhaust which I'm also reconditioning before I put it on the car.

And finally, I tried my hands ats wrapping and things went well.

Now that you have done that, please could you give me a really good description of how to remove the little piece that’s sticking out funny on the left of the picture :

That funny little plastic four sided piece that sits above the knee bolster / pad. You can see the recess for it to fit on your picture. I would be interested to see the back of that piece and how it mounts (mine is a little loose) :frown:

Renewed insurance again with Admiral, won't go in to specifics but I paid £25 less than the previous year so pretty pleased :rockon:

I have been busy doing a light enhancement on the mustang. 80% correction with rupes fine pad and menzerna step 3 super finish polish.

Tje first picture is a photo where it has had a sealant and a single coat of adams polishes ceramic paste wax.

Also put on the solo performance mach xv 3inch cat back and am very happy with it. Sounds amazing.

Having the lift has been a god send. I haven't had to break my back at all with the machine polishing and waxing etc and the ability to just get it up and swap the exhaust out like it's no big deal has been amazing.

I think it's fair to say that the lift has already paid itself off.

Ordered these from the USA - Hopefully no more crap lights once I get some decent D3s bulbs too:
