Thanks guys it's good to be back, I'm very excited about the new opportunities that the FN2 give me new toys to buy new things to learn.

So I drove the 1.5 hour trip home from the brother in laws tonight, longest drive I have done in the new car and was amazed at the fact that I averaged 33.5mpg. I love this new FN2

Looks good bud! I'm well jealous, that's exactly what I should have done. They're surprisingly different beast to the EP3, much more grown up. How are you finding it?
 
As you said it's completely different mate, I have only driven it collectively for about 6 hours but I have to say love it

I spoke to some people before I bought it and they told me to treat it as if it's s completely different car. I know that it is, what they meant was don't compare it to what you have as they are two completely different cars called the same thing

I took that on board and I love it, I have already started to order things on line

It's currently being slowly rebuilt with the brother in law, will try and get some pictures of it

I have also bought the Tegiwa engine bay dress up kit, I know, I know it's not going to improve any handling or performance. As the car has only covered 26000 miles it's practically brand new so just enjoying the standard fun of it, plus saving for parts.

I have gone red anodised washers with black bolts, not fitted any yet as its crap weather out there but will put up some before and after pictures when I do.

So just realised that you have to drill out some of the holes in the engine bay to fit the dress up kit so will no longer be doing that wish I had Know, next time I will do more research before making the purchase

So as its a dry day and I have no new parts to fit yet I thought I would clean the car, so here goes

Fist off I cleaned down with the jet wash, then snow foamed

Then cleaned down again with the jet washed, then cleaned with the two bucket system.

I then clayed the car and buffed off with quick detailer

Then I polished and then sealed it which means more buffing

Then going to polish and will add another picture when done.

As you might have worked out I am board of waiting for the sealant to dry and yes I love cleaning my car, don't know why.

And finally it has been sealed and waxed I know you don't have to do both but I had the time

Finished product

And the last one is me very happy with the reflection that the paint gives, now completely knackered as I did it all by hand as I don't have a machine buffer

Should maybe get one but do t trust that I would be able to do it properly

So guys need so help/advice was washing the car again today and noticed that the front bumper wasn't sitting right see video (sorry it's crap) is this a common thing and is it a case of taking number off and reseating it/ replacing a broken clip
