Looking good mate 8) Are you sprucing up the manifold heat shield?

No I binned it a good few months ago. I need a nice shiny exhaust manifold :D , although the cars so low the downpipe's going to have to be modified on any manifold I get :(

That's my worry when I eventually get lowered on the 3rd and fit a new shiny manifold and downpipe. I'll be getting a skid plate fitted though. Something to consider for sure.

Update: Rear brake discs renewed:

Put on the new rear brake disc yesterday. Took longer than I thought it would. The offside bracket was an absolute git to get off. Took about 40 mins just to remove two bolts :x

Didn't help that I put the wrong one on the near side as the grooves were running in the wrong direction compared to the fronts :lol:

Anyway pic below:

Took the chance to re-grease the sliders, pads etc so that everything moves nicely. :D
