I think that I have found the color to paint the new rims
someting similar to this:

The car has been with a car care center this weekend. They have touched up the paint some places and fixed some trouble areas. They also cleand the recaros, and atlst they sealed the paint with meguiars products.

lol! gonna change thoose tires for some Falken ziex or something similar.


I just paid for a set of used bride super low seat rails

Today I have been taking care of the car. Long time since last time..

I almost don't use the car in the winter, so in wednesday I desided to put it into storrage for the winter. got a place thats heated to 12' C 24/7
I gave it a decent wash before I drove it to storage, but now I have desided to give it some shining. A few layers of wax. So to prep it for the wax and polish, I have used 4,5 hours with theese "funny" tools

Very ungrateful work, since you almost cant see the different after hours of work. But now its well prepped and the sand paper noise is gone

Here is how it stands during the cold winter

Got a bad suprise while checking the trunk.. A plastick bag with 3 broken beer bottles,,, So the beer had gone somewhere else. So i Lifted on the carpet in the trunk to look at this(its not snow):

Took out the spare wheel and the bare trunk looked like this

I dryed it and cleaned some dirt with some sitrus spray

The carpet was'nt to bad.

Used this togheter with a stiff brush

Back in good condition

cleaned, and put on some tire shine on the spare wheel before putting it back.

So everything I need now is a new trunk plate and i'm back to great


Some of my products

So now the car is standig ready to get some layers with shine only have to get some extra time for it in the near future
