Began doing some body work parts at long last.
Rear badge had cracked out again from where i bodged it over two years ago. Desided to chissel the bugger out and start a fresh. Originally i had just filled over the paint which was my down fall :/ took it back to bare metal and used the chisel to spike the shit out of the metal for some extra "grab". Decuded to smooth that daft key hole in the boot off too. Not sure if they actually work but my key has never fit it.
Had to do similar on the original roof bar holes too.
Had the wheels booked in for spraying. Before they went off they needed some minor repairs to the taper seats. The machinist at work made me the 60 degree taper drill for them.
One of them was also kerbed months ago. I hid it with some filler but decided to get a weld in there.
So now there ready to go off for sandblasting and spraying (with two pack).
New wheel bolts too just because im a whore

On another note the turbos gotten really bad. Now bought another unit to hopefully do a quick change over. New units cost £20 with a chra with excessive play.
Im unsure what to do chra wise. The last unit i rebuilt with a £20 chinese kit lasted just over a year.
Im tempted to buy a pre made chra but its finding a good quality unit. Ive gound some Melett which claim to be good quality unlike those chinese one.
Ive also found an apparent uk based company that makes hybrid chra's
Looking at it i almost wanna say it sounds too good to be true Melett claim to be OEM quality for £172 delivered where as turborebuild.co.uk claim an uprated chra for only £230..
Kinda stuck here
