All looks great! What did you do with the undertray? Bridging the gap for the M bumper conversion I presume?

No I already did that, mine came with //M bumper but standard tray, so I managed to source an //M undertray. But the APR splitter came with a pre cut down //M tray so I had them all out checking mounting points etc, all fits like a glove now :fuelfire:

20171011_145757.jpgAs many will know I've been busy bringing the coupe back up to showroom condition, so it had a full respray at Sandy Wallace of knockentiber then left for a month for the respray to fully cure then booked in for a full machine polish and ceramic coating at KW Detailing along with the wheels stripped and powder coated in anthracite grey at Stiggy motorsport in kilmarnock, can't recommend these companys enough, there attention to detail is unreal. The paint looks flawless and the wheels are better than new !

Yorkie I'm buzzing with it, keep looking at it out the window :D
 
New alternator regulator as the old one stopped doing its job, causing the amp to pop in the process :headbang:

Ah well, could be worse! I seem to have finally solved the rear rattle by adding foam tape to every bit of boot trim!

Weather envy. Where is this? I've spent all day in the p1$$1ng down rain :|

Used what I had left of my Dynamat Xtreme on the rear parcel shelf and behind the cubby holes. Ordered some acoustic carpet to go on top.
 
Decided to take it for a drive, seeing as she's been moping in the garage since Sunday, as been using the 2.0 in "shakedown" mode..

Now I know I said the 2.0 was a cracking little car, but OMG I now realise why I LOVE my car!!!

Lovely hoon to the shop, of 16 miles, and it's actually only 6!

As they say, "There is no replacement for displacement" :D

I did the dynomat and carpet on the parcel shelf last weekend but it makes very little difference to my ears. I think the majority of the road noise comes in from the rear window and hood.

It doesn't stop much road noise but it does stop the crappy thing rattling it's t*ts off until you go insane ! :thumbsup:
 
Went and collected a set of 224s for it for next summer - sadly not in it though. :(

I didn't fancy putting a wheel with a tyre on a Pearl Grey seat! :eek:
