Steering wheel back from recent re-trim

The alcantara was lighter than the flocking on my dash and the miss match is one of those things that would bug me

Despite a late finish, I pulled the car in the hangar at work;





Oem Brembo / Textar pads out;





Pagid blues in...







Can change the pads on these calipers blindfolded. Dead easy. Had to clean the rotors up with some 60grit paper to ensure there was no deposits from the old compound.  Plenty of ceratec paste on the back of the pagid pads. Job done.

Thanks to Alex for bringing the pads to Inters, saving me postage.  :drinking:

I really want to do the TTrs master cylinder, just missed out on Shaun's to James  :sad1:

Ordered a Seat option spoiler, usually found on the K1 or BTCC kitted Leon's.  Probably getting it fitted and painted at the same place in Bedford that did my carbon bonnet.

Also need a couple of paint defects sorting around the rear. She should look mint then :-)

Also booked in at AKS in September for; custom throttle body pipe and to refurb the track wheels.
