Jason986S Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) Paintless dent removal guy had a go on the 986. A whole £20 later and the tiny ding is gone! Then went for a drive with the change pumped into the fuel tank around the Somerset B-roads. Then I washed and polished it before putting on it's indoor cover in the garage. Stopped outside a mid-renovated house, one I nearly went in on buying last year. Which if it wasn't such a wreck I would have! It's like a god damn castle. Post wash & polish Wheels cleaned and tyres treated I also picked up the Mustang (in laws) after a 2 day paint correction and ceramic sealant application. We told Ford not to prep-polish it, but they didn't listen, so it's now spot on thanks to Owain @ Mad About Detailing. Roof is also proofed too with G tecnic.

Foobar Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 I'm trying this FM transmitter out whilst I'm waiting for my radio removal keys to come through the post. https://www.amazon.co.uk/CHGeek-Bluetooth-Transmitter-Wireless-Hands-free/dp/B06Y4KL9LB/ref=cm_cd_al_qh_dp_t It's got a car finder, which means it's always on. I'm suspicious of this, I think it's going to drain the battery. It's going to be returned back to Amazon ultimately and I'm going to be using an iPod Cable hooked up to back of the CDR-22.

Jason986S Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 I've ordered a few bits online that hopefully mr postman has delivered today (a few packages for me to arrive home to tomorrow as working away tonight). All will be obvious at Beaulieu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topbox Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Gave it a quick wash ready for Beaulieu but as we are going down Friday chances are it will be a bit mucky come the day. Wondered what reaction I would get if I painted the calipers pink! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are taking this seriously What if they are not ready, you might have to come with it on four space savers if you can borrow some... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason986S Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) Space savers are a strong look! I took a bottle of meguires quick detailer spray and some micro fibre cloths to give it a quick once over when parked up on display.
