I was going to say looking forward to seeing that valve cover being painted

Looks good mate

What size/type are the exhaust manifold bolts? Where did you get yours from? They look really good with that painted manifold cover - is it holding out with all that heat?

Thanks folks

I think the bolts are m8, but not sure on length as I just cut down longer bolts to fit. I think they're just BZP but not sure..

It seems to be holding the heat fine surprisingly. I scratched it though so needs re-doing soon

The braised hoses look good

Space1999- M8 x 12mm or 16mm long should do it. The washer will be thicker than the heat-sheild, so that's probably 5mm max combined thickness there, and the rest will be thread engagement. 16mm might max out, but those are both standard lengths.

It was finally time to paint the wiper blades.

Here's what they looked like before, very worn:

Painted them up in satin black, complete with flat blades, looks much better I think.

If anyone wants to see some bigger updates soon, i'm happy to take monetary donations to fund parts. Please give generously

Peace out.

Much better. That's one of the jobs on my list. Just waiting until I can paint my new lip at the same time.
