Prepare to go dizzy then Ian @Redline here are the results of another busy afternoon in the Z shed.
The first thing to do was remove the masking tapeView attachment 27580 and see if the adhesive had done it's job, happy to say it is rock solid.
Next, start to refit the callipers and then a run in to work to borrow the pressure bleeder to change the brake fluid, which didn't look as though it had been done in it's 13 years, very dark colour, the new stuff is almost clear!.

About now was a good time for a final coat on the callipers for the parts that are easily seen from outside. Next it was time for the wheels to go on, been looking forwards to this bit !:)

last 2 pictures of the spoiler after a quick coat of polish to remove finger marks, looking good I reckon.

After a wash and polish tomorrow I'll post some pictures of it in all it's splendour. Been a hard 3 days but worth it in the end. I'll go back to work for a rest.;)

He's worked on mine Hugh and has offered to do some work for me in the future, he really does make it look so easy. Wish I was better with the spanners.
