Well after a few miles they rattle like hell so going to strip the interior out and soundproof the boot floor and around the back seats as there is also quite a bit of tyre noise.
I also need the front bumper re-spraying as it has various chips and a nice big scrape on the lower corner where my fuck of a wife caught it when parking (although she denies it lol) and a repair to the front edge of o/s wing as it had a small ding.
Finish off fitting my ipod interface thing that I started about 2 years ago, fit some new rear adjustable top control arms to sort the excessive camber, 2 new tyres for the back, maybe polybush the front lower arms as there is a bit of a clonk and it wanders a bit under hard braking, and to finish it off an RS clutch as the standard one slips more than a giraffe on an ice rink.

Polybushing the front arms are supposed to be a complete nightmare of a job so if I can find someone to do it that would be good lol.

It went in the garage a month ago now and I was going to crack straight on with it but I haven't even opened the door yet so need to get motivated!

I know tell me about it, I work outside in the cold and can't be bothered to do it at the weekend either.

The rattle in the front doors are a common problem, it is usually caused by a wiring loom that runs along the length of the door rattling against the metal backing plate thing. Just tape it down and it should sort it.
