There was a lot of fine pitting on it that I wasn't sure how to bring up.
These are 3 days later.

I need a new rear bar first. A few cracks and apparently already full of bog.
After some mechanical reco I'll look into M-Sport bar, LCI Tails and boot lid.

I successfully removed the mobile phone cradle after getting some advice from Socket to get rough and rip it out.

Are there adapters for modern phones or are they just a space waster?

Any large size iPhone eg iPhone 7 Plus can't fit and the "cradle" is just a wire you have to plug in and a clip to hold it down

I believe there are adapters available but they wouldn't be cheap. I read that people that have the correct adapter installed very rarely use it. If your phone is charged, I cannot see the need for it. Maybe on long trips, it would be handy for keeping the phone charged.

Installed the cf rear diffuser I bought from Jason (eurodivision) in the group buy.

Fit is pretty good. Can only get one screw in the underneath part of the left and right as the holes don't match up perfectly. But it's definitely not going anywhere. Clips line up very well and are nice and tight

Overall very happy with the product. Now to get the quads installed so it doesn't look mismatched as it does now.

I decided to give my rims there annual polish today. I couldn't have picked a better day weatherwise with the temperature at 28C and humidity 80%. I must have lost a couple of litres of fluids but completed the task.
