Await package from gareth7 fit. Finish wheels (last one waiting paint tomorrow) fit them with spacers.
Take 3 black vinyl off on the doors.
Spray a couple more bits on dash.
Buy a cheap exhaust to get rid of the motors factors Job.
Hopefully buy disc and pads and paint all calipers blue.
If enough time and money might get it mapped as well.
Thats it I think. Apart from detail on Saturday with finish at camp site.
