Just got the autosol out for the twin loop. Difference is great for the 5 minutes it took!

I need to try this autosol on my twinloop its caked in black gung! Looks like it's brought your twinloop up good as new!

Mine was caked too. Just thought it was old and burned up tbh.

Only after seeing patch_teg at the weekend and his was gleaming, I thought I'd try.

£4 and 5 minutes. Great difference!

I nipped to halfords after work today and picked up some autosol. Going to give it a go tomorrow and hopefully I'll get the same results you did mate!

Got round to fitting this today.

Shift sports carbon bonnet, wasn't sure at first but grown on me after a drive. Need bonnet catches now tho.

Will update my build thread at some point...

Think you might need carbon wing mirrors to complete the look ;) not that I'm trying to convince you to spend more money ha ha.

A little bit of progress on my polybush journey. Picked the easiest first and painting up as I go, I'm a nightmare for tubs of nuts and bolts so I'm labelling up this time

Cusco arbs arrived fresh from Japan thanks to Matt at injection

Few more bushes gone today, only the hubs left now whoo hoo


Was in two minds to spray the wishbones or polish them, prefer the paint. Should look nice with the other parts

Fitted a few parts this weekend,
1. K tuned Pivot Ball & Shifter Spring
2. Hybrid racing shifter bushings, and
3. A Whiteline adjustable rear anti roll bar.

Cant get over the difference it has made to the car, the rear anti roll bar is one of my favorite upgrades.
