What have you done to your car today?

[j3nks79]

So I’ve started on my interior seat colour change. Gone for Cinnamon. One seat out and back in today. Just drivers seat and door cards left to do.
Probably be the weekend now as my old legs are hurting.

Nice! I also appreciate you masking the door handle...assuming that is in case you whack when removing / putting back in...I've been there with a coupe! Are you doing the door cards as well?

Yes and yes covered the sill with a blanket so I didn’t scuff anything.
Yes doing drivers seat and door cards on Sunday.
Not good for your legs and bones as you get older lol

Calipers finally on! Using Brembo street pads and an 18mm front wheel spacer. Spacer is providing adequate clearance between caliper and rim. As Dubbedown figured out, I have the ZCP rims not CSL's. So far no issues!

Looking good man, got that Superman theme going on. Next time u order maintenance parts be sure to add some new valve stem caps, those black ones are doing a disservice to your wheels

Are you running running same pad compound front and rear?

Here's a pre-caliper pic with caliper color matching car color.

I was thinking a patriot look, but I like the Superman theme better. So when are you going to post a pic of your McDonald's themed M?
Silver caps, easy enough!
Running whatever low dust ceramic pads previous owner put on the rear. Want to source some rear calipers, redo and put some matching Brembo street pads (the pads for the front that fit the rear). Not sure if the Brembos are low dust! I doubt it...

Ha in due time. The coupe is sitting on stands going through a laundry list of maintenance to get ready for the track (and long drive to/from) in few weeks. In meantime I’ll be detailing the other cars this holiday weekend weather permitting.

Took it for a drive to a local car meet (Somerset Classics Day) and met a fellow Zeder

If you want to be OCD about it, make sure the centre caps are orientated with the M badge

Went Mr Miyagi on her.

Paint restoration, polish and a full wax. Time for a beer!

Since owning, I've replaced the scabby bonnet, sprayed the rims, done a load of maintenance too.

My missus agrees haha! Very hot day for it...

Worst part is the car has to sit out in the elements for a week as I'm flying to France in the morning.

And now drivers seat done. Just door cards left to do

Changed the gagues to some custom ones I had made up and sprayed surrounds from silver to matt black .

Took a nice drive with wifey down to Topsham from Torquay along the coast road. Went onto the garden centre at Clyst St Mary and back home up the dual carriageway via the Costa on the Plymouth road by the racetrack. Lovely but a bit too hot for the wife.

These look great. Where did you get the dial kit from?
