Badges are in the wrong place - but the arches need de-rusting anyway.
Debating between moving to right place or loosing altogether.
Anyone have any idea what they are?" />17" Unknown wheels - will be for sale soon.

Have given the car its proper first polish.
Going to remove the very poorly positioned badges this evening, as long as the weather holds out.
Cannot wait to get my wheels back from the powder coaters.

Changed the Map lights over to a LEDs, the bright white really seems to modernise the look.
Also changed the aftermarket alloys for some Pre-facelift OEM wheels, which have been powder coated in Anthracite. With black wheel nuts and lockers.

Changed the number plate bulbs over to LED.
Really does modernise the look (plus I cant stand that yellow/warm light in my house or car!)
Also started a full service:
Changed the Spark plugs (NGK Iridium)
Changed the oil + filter (OEM filter, Shell Helix Ultra oil)
Changed the gearbox oil (Amsoil MTF)
Changed the Cabin filter (OEM filter)
Re-torqued 6 x Subframe bolts - as was hearing a knocking sound from front of car at low speeds, but now thinking it is Tie rod ends.
Cleaned the PCV valve
Re-attached the loose vacuum hose - no idea why it was loose.

Changed the side lights to CREE "brilliant white" LEDs, as I couldnt stand the difference in colour between the white HIDs and the warm/yellow side light bulbs.
Also while I was in the wheel arch (never known a car with such an awkward way of changing bulbs), I changed the indicator bulbs from the orange, to the silver bulbs, to get rid of that orange hue.
Hard to see from pictures as i took them during the day, but...

Couldn't wait for the weekend to fit the FIPK, so did it in the dark with a crappy floodlight.
Shame the FIPK heat box is in such a crappy state, but I've never been a "clean engine bay" guy.
