Well it failed on headligh beam too low, anti-slip cover on the brake pedal, high idle, and waaaaaaaaaay overfuelled, resulting in black smoke, and a massive CO reading.

Should be done tomorrow!

As predicted, MOT pass today, YAY!

Could do with turning the fuelling back up a touch though, CO is way under limits, ie. 0.197% instead of the limited 3.5%.

Got 50mph out of 2nd gear also, don't know if that's impressive or not, someone will know.

Cheers man, that will get better, after my bits have arrived!

Taster, needs 10mm lowering top caps, when I've found somewhere that sells them, and the back end is ready to go down somewhere around 50-60mm.

Obviously require sanding / blasting, and painting. Centre caps part of the deal too!

Dishy!

Now, who's got Matt Brown paint?

Edited by donnyburger

would it not have been a better idea to paintthem before getting the tyres puit on?

Its easy enough to take them off again, or to deflate them and wrap the wheel edge in paper to avoid spray-painting the rubber. Simples!

Na man, going for some colour, just got to do some prep 1st.

Put them on, for a trial, waiting to find some 10mm lowering top caps, and to lower the rear, that'll be next weekend, or might get it done one night in the week.
