Above is a link to my 'wheel arch refurb' thread I carried out just over 3 years ago. The car gets it's usual thorough looking over whilst in for service, but every few months I like to scrape the muck off and check all is well. Below is a picture of my discovery.....



I'm glad to say it looks like the last 3 years have been kind to her. I put the flood light under the outrigger chassis rails and all looks good and free from debris. I need to get her dirty again now.

I think the exhaust looks a bit scabby, better get it ceramic coated to compliment the fine job so far!!!

Not sure about the Golden Virginia packing on the trolley jack, what's that all about!!!!?

I was actually using a Yorkshire tea packet to protect the outriggers from the most uneven/viscous looking jack head! Yes the exhaust manifolds, if only I could use photoshop... at least I can say that they are also in the same condition I left them in 3 years ago!
I would love to pull them off and clean them up, but I read so many horror stories from people who have taken them off and struggled to get them back on again.

Shall we just say that the ones on now are a bit better than the grooved ones (and so are the 4 pot calipers!)
