Messing about with the GoPro today whilst checking the wheel fitment/clearance over brakes.

:signLOL:

Took me longer, that boot trim is a right PITA. I still had some of those stupid metal clips left over when I did mine!  :confused:

I replaced the lock mechanism on Sunday afternoon, in 29c heat and after 30 minutes i just wanted to get the damn trim back on. Think i did pretty well as i managed to get all but four of those fecking strings clips back in.

I have just got an Ebluey from the wife ( currently in Afghan) to let me know that i now have a deep scratch on my rear door as some kid, decided to drive his bike into it!!! Looks like handle bar and brake leaver has slid down the door. Yet no-one is owning up!!

Bloody hot weather in the uk, bring back the rain when all the brats stay inside!!!

So in short, i am not at home and its still costing me money!! :laugh:




Gutted  :surprised:

The last thing you need in Afghanistan is worrying about your car getting trashed by others  :fighting:

So just got my car back today I have missed it but needs lots and lots of love.
A lot of people have crashed and knocked into her. Also the weather has helped for a new windscreen.
 But the main thing is my car runs again the ECU is in perfect working order. And driving it is so smooth and super acceleration just makes you know why you enjoy it so!!

Overall  :grin:

but did cost a lot
