Hey People,

Just thought Id update you all!

Spent the past week sorting out all the lil bits that needed doing;

Painting Brake Pads and Drums

Shaving 6n2 rears

Cleaning Throttle Body

Etc

Also lowered the front a little so its now sitting just as I wanted it too and am really pleased.

I've been thinking about smoothing over the plate recess, has anyone done this on a standard bumper before? Not sure how to go about it lol. Here are a few progress and show pics...

Very nice, lovely wheels. How often do you have to clean them?

Love it mate, wheels are so shiny!

Drums and pads look a million times cleaner, how difficult was it to do?

I should really do mine too as you can really see them through my wheels lol.

Thankyou. I tend to wipe them down every time I've been out on a long journey etc, otherwise weekly when the rest of the car is washed

Cheers fella :-). They really weren't that difficult, clean, sand down, paint up several layers and they're done! An afternoon is probs all you'll need. After all its the little touches that make the big difference!

Alrite guys,

Havn't updated on here for quite a while now, so just thought I'd share how the Olop is rolling!

Had a great summer, went to a number of shows up and down the country. Players 11 was defo the best show this year imo :)

The car is going strong, lowered a lil more and I'm very happy with the current way it now sits.

Changed onto the standard steelies not so long ago, although I'm not a fan of the way they look, so tried on some Renault alloys for a bit of a change this winter!

Will be swapping onto the Toyos. Pics below!
