Mate as I proved last year with the 'harlequin' if your in the club your car is suitable for the stand whatever condition. As most people will appreciate that not everyone can have a show winning car certainly not me so I say that if you feel proud of your efforts defo put it on the club stand :)

just gonna update this as a big list as i was going to take some pics today but its decided to pour down

 

so i made a list and found some motivation !its hard blowing the cobwebs of after winter lol

thus is what i have done in the last few days

 

secured all the exhaust so its now silent

wrapped a nice piece of flexible rubber round the rear beam so the back box doesent bang any more

greased all my sticky locks

checked all fluids ,all good

fixed my rattly door cards and noisy rear pass side speaker and replacead all the card clips

removed what seemed to be a very old ****ty motarola hands free kit wich i found randomely behind the door card

fitted the little magnes exhaust stickers chrisl got me with the system ,cheers.

unplugged the ****ty drain away on the filler neck

wrapped the windscreen trim in carbon and refitted

sprayed the ecu scuttle cover so its now shiney new black and not faded grey

sprayed the vr6 badge red again after a messy job someone else has made

cleaned out the folage seal area and hoovers all the bits out of it lol

fitted new pagid disks and pads all round and tightend up the hand brake cable

fitted a de cat

 

i think thats it for now ill post up what pics i have later on tapa talk wich doesent seem to be working properly at the moment
