And so it begins again

I know mate but it just doesn;t excite me, I'm going to do the other side in plan B which was actually plan A until I decided to go safe however I was going to have M blue calipers with plan B which was plan A but red will be OK I think, I could always change them to suit plan B which was A

I think you need a plan C. Having A and B seems to simple

I do have a plan C which was the very original plan A

Bled the brakes tonight with a pressure bleeder, they are bloody brilliant, it took 20 mins to do the whole system, I also flushed it through to get rid of the old cloudy stuff, the break pedal is very good even without servo assist, I did have a couple of leaks when I first pressured it up but just gave them a nip up and all was well, I also did some more work in the boot and sorted the battery area, that now looks like new, And finally I sprayed the other bonnet grill in plan A and I bloody love it, now I'm really excited about the project, I have so many planes for both the exterior and the interior, my head is bloody spinning.

Your brakes look great, I’ve just got mine back from Biggred. Is the BMW standard vinyl?

Do you have to lacquer over the top?

No mate, I did consider but I used them on my last Z and they stood up well

I guess the lacquer is more likely to peel than the gloss in that environment if it’s the final coat? Or did you lacquer over the red before the stickers anyway?

The red is a solid colour with no lacquer

As a side note, I checked the bleed nipples today and 2 had a slight weep, one rear and one front, the rear which is powder coated left red paint on the cloth that I wiped them with, however the front that has been painted had no effect but if left would wreck the paint

Its back on its wheels after 2 months on stands, I can't believe how low it looks, I'm so used to seeing sat so high, going in tomorrow to fit the seats and battery, then give it a run around the estate, remove the doors and get them in primer

 

[Grumps]

Oooh we're getting close now! Orange or neon green Sean? ​

So if plans B was A but now B but going back to A, can we see plan A that was B that is now a No?...
