I'm up for a couple of stickers!
Sad to hear about the car, but only one way to find out - the good news is that is could be 13b time....?

The night shot was taken by a friend of mine, 30 second exposure, and wander around the car with a light source...
I'll get the stickers done to the correct size to fit properly onto the filter housing...it won't be the same as the original one, but as it will fit better I think it will look better.
Not sure what blue it is, but it was leftover from an MX5, so it's a Mazda colour...I'll have a look at the tin next time I'm over at the workshop and let you know. It's a bit darker than the original, which works better with the tender blue ish paint on the bodywork in my humble opinion
I'd like to keep it 12A if I can, especially as I have the elford to go on. I guess I'll strip this one down and see what the housings and rotors are like, and go from there. Not something I'll enjoy doing, nor is it anything I've done before, I'm a rebuild newbie

Took a trip to Ramon's shed, picked up a few things
my old boot carpet...no amount of cleaning would lose the stains...
new carpet, and rear seat...which has fixed two things, the split in my rear seat, and the bent handle on my load cover!
The FC seats went in too
and I fitted a leather gear gaitor thing, and fixed the dash lights in the centre console
Quite a productive day off

Rockin' those FC seats dude. I think that will have to be my next upgrade too. Liking the RX8 gearknob as well. That must be VYV's Xmas gifts all done now?
