Noticed that my Diff heat sink was looking a bit shabby, so with an ever-so-light spraying of (744 Brilliant Sliver) on the rear cross-section (only) it looks as good as new:

Update for late 2015:

Affalterbach logo for the gear selector. I always thought it looked odd on the non-keyless go models to have no logo on it:

Got myself a DAS-6 DA Polisher, I think the results speak for themselves. Amazing considering I dont really know what im doing: :D

A 10 year old car with leather seats is bound to have the odd scuffs. Bought a kit off eBay which dyes the scuffed areas making it look as good as new (apart from the creasing which I have stopped in its cracks now with various products)

Looking forward to seeing the video :)
 
They did a good job there. Looks very tidy.

How long did they keep your car for Karl?
 
Thanks for the comments :)

It took them 3 hours.


Its taken me ages to re-build the thread, but ive restored all the images from Photobucket (bar a couple) :D
 
Car looks really nice.

For the 3 hrs work & materials what would the average cost be , if you don't mind asking?
 
Great looking car will start my post for mine this week
