This polished die-cast aluminum rocker cover set adds a great custom look to your engine bay and also helps keep the oil cool by dissipating the heat quicker than the factory covers.

After refitting the throttle body (=tb) after l had polished it. After awhile l noticed it was flaring between 3 & 4 gear.
Changed the tps & no more flaring.

Don't talk to me about TPS. TPS was a dirty word for me 2-3 years ago.

That TB looks the goods! Lot of work therein!

Went out to start the car this morning, NO start!
Scanned it, was no error codes.
Fuel is low but hasn't been throwing any low fuel warnings, until l scanned it.
Had 1.5 maybe 2 litres. Poured it in the tank.
SUPRISE, it started.
Grabbed the empty fuel container (5 litres). In case l ran out of fuel on the way to the servo.
But l didn't.
So far all good?

I have the guards, bonnet & bumper on now.
Can't get the panel alignment like l had.
But at the moment, l've had enough. So possibly it will stay this way?

I also wet sanded & polished, then 2k with clear the headlights. I put all new globes in too.

When the the paint has had a chance to fully dry & harden, l'll cut & polish. See how it goes.

Not the best job, but i've never really done anything like this before.

It looks better than what it use to, in my opinion.View attachment 221431View attachment 221432View attachment 221433
