Trims

New handbrake cables for them rally starts and new camber bolts for the adjustable rear arms

Ever wondered what 200 quid of trim clips looks like?

All worth it though for good fitting trims, not a hint of tiger seal on these cars!

Saturday Shift

Small delivery from Demon Tweeks…

Gave the rear arms and extra coat of paint for added protection. The factory black coating is pretty good from a corrosion point of view, but with the shot blasting these take any time a gravel trap rally cross excursion occurs, a little added protection doesn’t hurt

Rear subframe and arms all built back up. New camber bolts coming from BMW on Tuesday. Gave the tank a thorough clean and degrease then added a section of heat reflective tape.

Front subframe mostly built up. Turns out we got 4 banana ball joints of one side and none of the other rather than 2 and 2 so couldn’t fully build it up. Modified ARB brackets to include captive nuts and steering rack all mounted up, again added some extra protection on the PS pipes since they suffer from corrosion.
