    Exhaust Mounts
    Creaky Dash Etc
    Cleaned Seat Belts and Seats
    Painted Brake Discs and Touched Up Calipers
    Auxilliary Port
    Renaultsport Mats
    Scrubbed Engine and Interior
    Had An Absolute Nightmare De Tarring
    Clay Bar and Machine Pollish
    Renault/Elf Window Sticker
    Minor Dents Removed
    Wheels Refurbed

    May be something I have forgotten! lol In the near future I will do the following;

    Thermostat
    Reg Plates
    Wipers
    Paint Wiper Arms

  5. Cchets Jamie, thats the look I'm after :smile:
     
  6. Stunning colour mate. I also have a red one and they do come up well. Painting the bells on the discs is a nice touch and the exhaust tips are spotless? May I ask what you've used to get them that clean?
