What did you do to your car today?

Wheels back on after wheel wizards did a savage job on them :thumbsup:
New long blue wheel nuts fitted.
New front splitter fitted.

Nearly ready for the show :subaru:
 
Spent the last few weekends working on the front of the car. I refitted the foglights, removed the winglets, polished the frontmount as i had it painted black, new front splitter, and roof vane spoiler, and a WR1 top grill, also have a new clutch kit and flywheel being fitted this week, arch's being rolled and new rear camber bolts being fitted for abit more stance

Taped up so as not to touch the rubbers or delicate areas with the DA polisher :thumbsup:

I have never polished my own car before. Do all these polish things are bad for rubber amd plastic parts? Or you just don't want to be cleaning them after?

Refitted painted bumper and boot lid after painting the spoiler. Need to refit the skirts and put the spoiler back together, then back out for a wash and back in for machine polish. So much to do before Sunday!!!

Up till 2am getting the boot, roof and rear quarters polished. Still have the rest of the car to do, then onto the finishing stages. Gould be ready for sunday but cutting it fine!!
 
Finally got a decent fitting front lip for mine that didnt cost an arm and a leg and didn't need to be modified to fit, can of primer and satin black paint and it looks good on the car i think, had it sitting in work for the last few months until i finally got around to fitting it.
