The term "it'll be fine" should be used here........in fairness I would normally use them but I brought everything I needed from my house to my girlfriends as it's easier to leave a car there that doesn't move/in the air and I forgot them!
Haha I really wish you lived closer Dale!! I want to get them done before Ring but I'm not fancying doing them without a watchful eye over me, in which I may aswell get somebody else to do them!! Thanks for the help with everything so far though 
Got some pics today, cleaned, polished & waxed ready for the mass of bugs/rubber/brake dust/car park dust from Nurburgring in a couple of weeks time.

















Jobs to do before Ring:
Oil Change
Oil Filter
Cabin Filter
Fuel Filter
Vanos Filter
4 Wheel Alignment checked
Check brakes
Change Brake Fluid
Check under the car, do a nut & bolt check on everything, especially the bits I've had off recently.
Valve Clearances if I get the chance too.

Thanks lads, it's made all the hard work I've put into it worth it :-)
Yeah John I'm glad I've gone with this colour, it's so metallic it really shines in the sun. Going to give it a wax aswell to really make it shine, including the floor

It's just laquer on top same as paint.
It's something I'd consider if they ever needed a refurb, but they are pretty mint with only a couple of marks so not worth doing them. I really like the silver though as it's an OEMish look? Not too try hard.
And I would do the brakes red I think, grey would hide them too much
