Talking Just got my baby back

Just got back from the body shop with my baby! They've done an excellent job, she's looking nice and fresh now. Amongst the work completed was:

B-Posts & Kidneys both sides
New nearside wing
Re-paint front bumper / valance
Repairs to offside wing
Fit Hayward & Scott pipework + M&K muffler
Apply Carrera decals (From MikeZ)

Some pics:









Oh yeah, here's a video of the M&K doing it's stuff

Really enjoyed the drive home, it's surprising how much you miss them while they're away, sniff sniff....

I think it's time to adjust your valves.

You can tell just from listening?

Yep! Defiantly time for an adjustment.

The car looks and sounds great though! I really like the sound of the M&K exhaust. Not to mention blue Carrera lettering on a white car is the cats a$$.
