Haha yeah I can believe that El. Finished the rear bumper today, and working some more on the skirts to make them an even better fit for the N16. I can use my mum's car for the next two weeks if I need so probably won't rattle can the kit and will just go straight to getting it all painted at the shop. No news from the bonnet people as yet.
 
looks better bud, though you notice the rears more so than the front, how do you find the difference in ride, comfort, sidewall flex etc?

also nothing else to share? or was today just in preparation?

Anything else to share??

Ride comfort actually seems better. I put that down to using premium tyres on the rear even though they're lower profile. Not stretched helps too i think. Maybe Uniroyals are better on the front too.

In terms of handling its improved. Noticeable gain in stability.

Grip is up too, but the coopers i had before were quite hard.

oh as I mentioned earlier loving the Uniroyals I've had on the N1 for over a year now, and at present only got em on the front, rears are still Falkens, the grip with em in both wet and dry is awesome
 
Aaaah ;-) need to test it on seat air bags ready for the new seats. Didn't think that was a secret :-). Two plugs and three wires total though so not sure where to stick the resistor.

Easy if one plug with two wires but the second plug with the third wire is throwing me.
