First step to a front end upgrade:

I recently upgraded to LEDs which I’m hoping with fit in here, if not, oh well, halogens it is.

The facelift Mugen bumper and grill will be next.

This is for when I goes to paint so I can confirm the exact factory colour, although my daughter wants it midnight purple (Famine might approve). That’s for another thread towards the end of the year. For now I’ll touch up some chips.

 

[W3H5]

OK, so the Mugen isn’t available right now and I’m impulsive so I just got the facelift grill.

Somebody stop me before I buy a full front end!

We'll not stop until brand-new car!

Most of the car is fine. Just a few body bits need replacing.

But does it have that smell

It doesn’t. It has a musky smell.

A topper for my Foo Fighters pinball machine (along with the shooter rod mod, expression lighting, art blates and cabinet armour, all yet to be unboxed), and several AFX car bodies I scored from ebay.

Spoiler: This is how it will look.

And as the last remote control car/cat toy was so successful we got her another one for up in the bar. Drifts great and is quick enough to give her a run for her money in the hide and seek games she loves to play.

The 962 has now been cleaned up and sits on a new Viper VSpec Racing chassis, and I'm waiting on a delivery of it's race partner (below) some time today. That one will also receive a brand new Viper VSpec Racing chassis. Gotta have two the same to keep it fair.

Expecting 2 weeks of bird dropping to accumulate while I’m in England this month, I picked up a cheapish car cover to protect the paintwork.
Not that it matters too much as my daughter wants a purple respray for her Christmas present lol.

Goodbye old

Hello new:

 

[Omnis]

That looks bleak, lol.

Could be worse. The old mattress was torn and the frame it was on had been sheared off by the support arms. The new bed is the same size but a lot more comfortable.

So decided to start an intake of Cacao. Before I jump fully in and to see what impact it has on my own body. Starting with only 100g

Panela, we buy this all the time as an alternative to white/brown (just white coloured with some molasses) sugar.

It’s just a light process to get the juice from the sugar cane and then dry it.

We use this mainly in coffee if we want to add something sweet. I also use it sometimes in baking unless I can get away with honey.

We don’t buy regular granulated sugar anymore and haven’t for quite a few years now.

It holds my glasses more than the joystick. 😄 😄 👓

I don't understand these cards at all, they came as a gift from a chocolate we ate. It looks very bright and beautiful.
