replaced the front ARB bushes recently, plus gave the wheels new Honda Access nuts as i didnt trust any aftermarket ones any more for not rusting and risking them rounding if i wanted the wheels off.
appart from that, ive done a little more to wiring in the parking pole loom - nearly there hopefully. she's still sitting pretty on the drive, waiting for a new MOT soon

oh and one for the fellow star wars nerds out there. we have a laser in work i look after, which has a monitor attached to watch it etch whatever your doing. i saw this and instantly wanted to modify the screen and so printed this on laminate....
which then went on the screen like so...
looks even better when the light inside the laser area is off
fellow nerds should know what this is a picture of

Quick update, still not had the arches done due to Bri being busy but there's no rush. Good thing though, she's back on the road with a fresh MOT, passed first time just two front lower ball joints as an advisory so ive had them done. Need to get the tracking done next, probably try for a slightly more fast road setup but not sure how much of this can be achieved without adjustable joints.
Had a compression test done on the block which reads an average 250 overall which is pretty pleasing.
Need to restore the cf a little as the roof and spoiler are looking haggered, plus the bonnet needs more lacquer. ABS light keeps flickering on & off too on an 1(11) code so need to look at that too, plus clean up some centre console electrics as my fogs keep shorting and im struggling getting the parking pole working.
overall though, it means once it warms up again and lockdown is over then its time
