Update!!

Finally got my ST brakes fitted, fully braided hose kit and 5.1racing fluid in there to - along with completely new rear callipers disks and pads as they had all seized up lol. Brakes are a thousand times better now they have bedded in, pedal is firm and they stop great!

Got my chrome cambelt cover fitted to, along with a new idle control valve and maf sensor, got a few other bits ordered to, new bumper air vent seal (under rear bumper) and a new fog light switch and footwell lights! I have also bought a new engine, a BRAND NEW RS2000 i4

Anywho as with any update theres always bad news for me lol, straight after I fitted the brakes (took a whole weekend) I had an early start the next day, on the way back from work I went into the back of someone! Shame they hadn't bedded in earlier pmsl. Basically a lady pulled out at a roundabout and stopped after she went over the white line, I assumed she had gone and just as I checked to the right she stopped and bang!

Caused £1800 worth of damage to her car, but luckily I have paid for it all (loan) so it won't go threw the insurance, as on the 6th of August it drops from £4070 to £1500.

Damage to her car was a new boot, bumper, rear slam panel, mine just needs a new headlight, bumper and crossmember, and a dent in my bonnet, fortunately for me the bulbs still work on the headlight and the damage won't fail an mot once the headlight is sorted!

So I will add that to my list of bits that need doing, after the car park and spoiler incident!

But as they say onwards and upwards, once the £1800 is paid off I will sort out my car, and get my new engine fitted with a few goodies. Will probably have the engine bay resprayed again as well as completely right down, and get everything minted in their, I am a bit of a bufty

On the plus side again before I forget, my garage is finally finished! So my car can sit safely at night, and fingers crossed if my important job interview goes well I might even have a company car soon and a massive pay rise - so things could move forward much faster!

Anywho here are some piccies..
