I had a Guy come out and remove a few dents last year for my Clio 182 it took him maybe 30mins and the finish was good no cracks or other damage that was £80.

 

 

Jurgen had a few taken out of My Supra when it was imported I saw the car dents before and after and whoever Jurgen got to do it did a good Job but I believe there is an element of risk involved regardless as mentioned depending on your specific cars paint history etc..

Plans look good mate. That's the route I take to my lasses family. Bit of a bad crossing on the a1 but it's not avoidable. Might just have to space out abit.

 

Added a map to the 1st post its slightly longer but is a better route to avoid the a1 cross and rail crossings

Haha do share Ross it might make me feel better about my list, how'd it go at revolution last week? All good?

touch up engine bay paint

finish of piping tuck on brake booster pipe

finish off carbon dipping spark plug cover and fuse box. ( bought a kit- first go was a disaster :-))

refit interior plastic

I have to re bleed the brakes! I have to to the master cylinder as well, read the service manual but can't work out if I bleed the MC with fluid in it surely it's going to drop out everywhere once you disconnect the brake lines... Anyone else done it before. ?

change the oil/ filter

new wheel studs/ touch up black alloys.

cut some mesh to go over my turbo trumpet.

Clean inside.

Clean outside

 

revolution on was great though. It now drives like a new car. !

Cheers Ross makes my list look tiny :D lots of late nights ahead buddy :), good to hear revo got it sorted, see what mine is like on the road may have seek their services if its a wonderer

 

Brake bleeding: connect all your lines etc if you have a one man bleed kit undo the p/s rear nipple connect oneman kit, pump til the peddles hard, repeat on all calipers, works a treat as far as i know the master will just gravity bleed in

Cheers, yeah already gone through that procedure twice, one with a vacuum kit and the other as a two man job, still spongy pedal. Hoping its settled over the past few days, going to bleed it again tomorrow night.
