Kinda, but it looks really stiff, i think you will need to get the whole mechanism out and straiten it as its rising wonky :)

thanks mate :(

i fitted the arches today. they are not perfect but its dificult with miglia arches. (advice to all the new people, just because there wide doesnt mean you should buy them, i got them when i first started on the mini scene, wide arches are great there is alot of work in fitting thease well.

alexmozza did a full oil change for me to get rid of the pitch black oil. yay

fitted some jewl lights today too.

thangs guys, more tomorrow
