                • Took car into Bob jane for wheel balance, still vibrates the car which is very annoying.
                  He ordered me in some Hub Rings, which will be in next week. hope that fixes problem.

                  Also re wired thermo switch in. Loose wire in the fuse holder, gotta get another one. explains why car was getting hot. it was only kicking in at certain times haha

                    I found 3M Wheel Silver at supercheap for like $10 a can! Came out really well, even though I sprayed a bit heavily.
                    How'd yours go?
                    I polished up my center caps and scrubbed the brake dust off the inside of them too. They could pass as NOS now!


                    Got me a 2nd place at the Nationals today - while I was there I replaced a door handle seal (after asking someone how to do it) - ended up with grease on my white T-shirt - but too bad - I got a 2nd!!!!!!

                        • I cut an alloy backing for a Euro nationality sticker today, going to make it look like the old metal plate type display and bolt it under the rear bumper rather than just sticking it somewhere.

                          Should have got pics...
