Fitted a full set of interior and number plate LED lights. Huge difference!

Also fitted a new arch liner as my old one was cracked slightly. Now for an afternoon detail.  :happy2:

This just arrived.
Will connect the garage remote control to it => DIY homelink :laugh:

I'll update my topic in Member Rides during the weekend, after I finish the mod.
Was ~ £20 from the dealer.

I'd personally go a bit darker with the rear lights, if you want them to look like the R32/ED30 lights.

Yes i think next Wednesdays job is to spray them another few coats :) i much prefer the rear badge that way round rather than black with red background.

Washed my car with the Karcher K3.99M which I found laying around in my conservatory from previous person who lived there  :signLOL: checked it all and worked fine see pics below :happy2: also stuck the small rubber pipe into some autoglym shampoo conditioner to see if it worked, didn't work at first seemed like it was clogged so I used the pressure washer to unclog it :signLOL: worked a treat until the shampoo ran out haha, finally I used the polish resin thing whatever its called and made it all shiny  :grin:

not sure what happened to the pic  :stupid: took using my Samsung GS4






Also thinking of buying a snow foam lance attachment from Halfords

http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_217894_langId_-1_categoryId_255231

read the reviews seems pretty good

I wouldn't bother, something like ebay item 271407023997 is what you need for snowfoam  :happy2:

By the way, searching around you might get one a bit cheaper
