You could always just paint the car red Tony. 
What have you bought for your Zed this week?

But then it'll take him just as long to highlight everything in whiteYou could always just paint the car red Tony.
Or I could be boring and leave it as it left the factory. . . . . . .

First cover and considering tyres had not been done for a while went on well. As its a spray not a gel does go onto wheels but just wipes off.
Can just spray onto tyre but after spraying went round with the Maguires tyre applicator to ensure full coverage
Good coverage and less tacky than the Maguires to use. Overall not as shiny as Maguires Endurance but more natural looking a positive for me.
At £13 its slightly less than Maguires but will not last as long.
Another good product from 303 but probably a bit on the pricey side considering how many applications it will do

Genuine fake Hartge numberplate surround
After a vast amount of wiring tidy-up, we have tunes. Whether I'll be able to hear anything over that exhaust is another matter! 
I bought a set of GRP sills for manual Zed from Classic Coachworks. It's a job for later in the summer along with a new pair of front wings. I know there are various views about GRP v original but as arguably the two biggest panels on the Zed are plastic I decided to go GRP
On checking the brake pipes (an advisory on the last MOT) I found that not only some needed replacement, but there were also some oil leaks under the car. Not leaks to the extent that it left puddles on the garage floor, but leaks which I felt should be dealt with before long. 18 year old seals do perhaps need replacement after 112k miles I suppose. A lot of work so it went to my 'go to' BMW independent guy and on his lift I could see leaks at the end of the gearbox,the sump and from the oil filter housing. So as the propshaft was going to be disconnected I told him to replace the rubber connection (think it's called a 'guibo' or similar) . The part isn't expensive so made sense while everything was off underneath. Well that's lightened my wallet, but must keep 'Kiwi' running smoothly and safely.
I've been toying with the idea of doing this but wondered if it would pass an MOT without the backbox?
As long as it securely mounted and not excessively loud there no reason why it would not.

20mm hubcentric spacers for the rears. Style 78s back on for the season, wheels balanced and hubs cleaned and sanded down with a smear of copper grease to make removal easier. Runs like a magic carpet, absolutely sublime and the best its ever been.
