Quick excursion from the garage for lunch!
ALL the underside and wheel arches plastered in underseal - aweful job
Amuse all polished and on!
CAT with wideband in it on!
Wideband cable un follow OEM O2 sensor route.
Muz/Whiteline lower brace on!
Found out why the rear no plate holder gathers gravel as well! Got a solution for it as well.

Hmmm, may give that a go but it's a bit too late - the bumper area where the grit collects has damaged paint - its all hidden, but I know it's there now...

I have to rebuild a little bit of the bumper where my T1-R exhaust came to close and melted it - so when I take the rear bumper off to do this I may insert some gasket material just to stop the grit collecting again.
