What have you done to your car today?
Moley Remember to wire brush all the old **** out from the arches before you roll them. And use a heat gun to soften the paint when rolling them
Thanks for the tips. Do you have much experience with the rollers? I couldn't tell the difference between the £40 ones and the more expensive ones, then again they were ebay pictures. Is there anything I should be looking out for when purchasing one? Cuz no doubt I'll have plenty of 'mates' wanting to borrow it, instead of using a scaffold bar while rolling forward and backwards...

Well yesterday I finally got round to replacing the water pump and cambelt on the landrover what a pig of a job that was.

Also rolled my arches with my fancy new arch roller. Pain in the **** as you have to take the caliper off to reach fully around the arch. Cracked the paint a bit, but meh, touch up paint will solve that. Combination of impatience and noobness. Also failed at fitting my auto mirror folding thing.
Good day/bad day!
Finally got all 4 wheels the same. I like it.

Yeah, but it seems to blow a fuse every now and again. So I've took it out for the time being. It's been a busy weekend and I cba with it. I'm gonna triple check everything before the next install when I have a bit more time on my hands. No doubt I'll be PMing you about something I've broken again, but thanks for the help so far, we must be close to cracking it. Probably something stupid, I shoudn't be allowed near car electrics.

Well the car will be at Japfest
I'll bring some tape and cutters just in case 
Me and Electricity don't really get on. You can't taste it, you can't smell it, you can't see it, you can only feel it, by which time it's too late! Bolting and unbolting I can do though.

Came today, fitted today, might leave em white, may paint em a different colour not sure yet, it might be a bit too yellow in the engine bay if I do em the colour of the car. Just need them Anti Roll bars, the rear strut bar, a million and one bushes, and those fancy Ikeya arms now...
