With P-Slots - wasn't keen on them, but they were only £50.

Now - not done much - ATS Classics, GT conversion, custom exhaust (another one on the way from PhilJ), K&N Filter, matt black bonnet, maybe others I've forgotten about.

Good pictures, Mines down, with 40mm springs at the back. 40mm at the front soon, maybe with 10mm top caps.

Why don't you fix it? If it was mine, it would be back to normal after a couple of days.
