Hi All,
I've been meaning to post some pictures up for a while now of the goings on regarding the Vee this year, but I just didn't get around to it.
So the year started with the dreaded cambelt needing doing for the second time since I've owned the car, so off to Scott's for a full service, cambelt replacement + a few other bits and pieces. Nothing major extra this year required, as the brakes were all replaced recently, tyres all good, clutch replaced recently, etc, etc.
Following this, I decided to finally re-spray the front-end of the car. The car's had no paint done since I've owned it (7 years now) so the bumper and bonnet were in a pretty bad shape (dents, chips, grounded bumper, etc). See below for the condition of the bumper pre-paint:
Now off to my local paint guy, and the result I'm very happy with (iPhone doesn't quite do the colour justice):
I was very much torn as to whether I should go for a paint guard or not, and I decided against it in the end. So the next thing on the agenda was to get a new splitter, and very kindly Russo helped me out and made me one of his great splitters (big thanks!).
I had a great drive out today around Bucks. Some pictures of the splitter, and the drive out:
Cheers,
Phil.
