Cleggy the Spyder Man Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Thought it would be a good idea to share all our upgrades that we seem to under take relentlessly, no matter how big or small ... Just this week I have fitted some wind deflectors, purchased off ebay for 50 squid plus posatge - and also shaved a bit of the front edge of my cycle wings as they had a big crack right at the front which has bugged me since I purchased the car (that dremel is great for drilling fibreglass) .... Anyway, what are you fannying about up to in your garage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abbeya Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Loads of maintainence type stuff: Chassis - powder coat touch up Steering rack bellows Lower steering column UJ replacement (more involved than you think - machining etc) Dashboard electrics tidy up + replace old rocker switches with illuminated ones etc etc. New carpets Paint brake discs ( not friction areas!!) Stone chip protectors This has kept me out of trouble most of the winter, once this is done, the more significant mods will be made Roll on March so I can re-tax (this could be the only Tax I am happy to pay!)
