Did clay, polish and wax her yesterday but usual british summer today! Sad

So I've already taken out the BOSE 6cd Unit and replaced with a Kenwood DDX5022 6" touch screen, wired into amp and steering wheel for controls.
Next ICE plan is a possible in carputer (with lots of help from rabster I would imagine) then repsray front end as a little chippy, refurb rays or upgrade to some Rota 19s, carbon fibre front lip and wing mirror covers and also thinking about flocking the centre console and drivers doorcard controls.
Already done the usual adding of SMD LED sidelights, silvatec bulbs also.

Maintenance wise need to sort my wiring behind the dash, fix motorised cubby door, new boot struts, new drilled/grooved front discs and some new bridgestones for the rear, hopefulyl most of this will be sorted next week.

Lovely car mate. Never been a big fan of yellow cars, but they are growing on me recently! Good to see you have many plans already. Best of luck with it.

ad: It was a tough call to make, but the Supercharged IS200 is being retired. Confused

Make sure they are dip as well, this will remove all contamination of the wheel prior to painting.
