So went and saw an exhaust shop yesterday and they said it's all easy fixed. Quoted between 250-400 for repairs and installation and will be a bit more if he has to replace the Flexi too. But that's what I thought it was going to cost anyway so no problems. I think for the money spent it's still going to be a great exhaust - I found it on the hi-tech/Mille miglia website for around $2000 new. So just going to go ahead with repairs and installation rather than only getting some of my money back

Today's mod! It won't sit on zero though even when the engine's off, any idea why?

Took some decent(ish) photos today of current progress. Amazing how just a few simple mods completely transform this car, love it!7e3eb899a6ee8e43768c7e5d2b2c4cf0.jpg255705d45783c2387df03086d6b174e5.jpg49438c0a583cd49513aecc0f2eab8aa8.jpg68bca13768db2a2ab6240f44da2fa93a.jpg0bb2ec286e3bb67523d405c8a1831aa1.jpg0bb2ec286e3bb67523d405c8a1831aa1.jpgf4135518cf117a04829b89a2e11ee06e.jpg

Been progressing slowly...

Wheels do look good. Cannot decide which photo I'd like to mount the most though.

Tossing the tomatoes between pic 3 & 4.

Looks good with the new springs and struts. How does it ride?

Haha were you the blue gen 3 that I overtook then immediately got stuck behind a motorhome?

 

Been putting off paying for new plates since I bought the car but just got these for my bday so happy days!

 

 

Looks good with the new springs and struts. How does it ride?

 

Pretty comparable to stock comfort IMHO. These struts had only 60k on them when I got them though replacing my 180k ones that were starting to leak so obviously that's going to affect the ride a lot. If anything they're a little bit bouncy, not sure if that's the right word for it but I always feel like it's constantly bouncing a bit more than the original struts, especially noticeable on the highway/freeway.

Hahaha thanks man! I wouldn't consider myself a photographer by any stretch - I'd love to get some proper shots of this thing at some point :D
