told the mrs to go out and re-park the car when she parked it too close to the kerb for my liking she did as she was told

Zaino have some great products out. They seem to work Amazingly well on the Red paint. Its hard to see on photos, but its awesome on Silver too
Today I used the 3m headlight restoration kit to make my headlights clear again!! Have to say it's the first time i've sanded any part of a car and after the first few passes was a bit worried i'd ruined them, but after about 30 mins on each side I am very happy with the results, and well worth the £10 for the kit!!

Wiring the rear inner lights up through the tailgate with the wiring for the rear wiper motor and back down to the rear light. Using the BMW 21w bulbs that most their new 3-Series use mean a night consistent glow throughout the rear light units. Sorry about the poor quality of this photo....done on my phone with the light getting dark. But you get the point.....! Rear afterburner lightsLooks good, how many bulbs? The one closest in the picture looks quite obvious where the bulbs are but i bet looks better in real life? Hard to do?

I've got the same tax disc holder. Hmm, now would it be rude to steal that idea? ha-ha... I think It'd be rude not to! Looks pretty cool! I was pondering as to where to put it, then I had a light bulb moment...lol. My Fast is now with me
