Cleaned the car yesterday with my new cleaning stuff, not sure how long I can expect the finish to stay like that for though... Black is so hard to keep spotless..

for the four wheel centers, dust cap stickers, front and back badges, steering wheel badge and S badge, think they cost around 30 pound, not terribly expensive at all to be fair. do recommend them though, if you do get them, heat them up with a hair dryer prior to application, makes them a little more flexi and makes the adhesive more sticky.

Interior plastics removed yesterday, completing the sanding down process after work this evening and then to prime them, spent 4 and a half hours doing this so far so long process, but worth it for the job to be done right (going to be gutted now if the final product turns out crap) :doh:
