I've got to take the MCS back in today for continued paint issues on the aero kit

The flat black was wearing off showing blue underneath so they repainted the black edging on the front & rear clip- the thing is they didn't bother to do the sideskirts, and those are losing the black paint as well. You'd think it was a no-brainer for them to do it all while they had the car

Cheers Ian,

Certainly a few to go on there!

We need some wall lights that have an output of 100W+, as the conservatory is quite big, they have a selection that appear suitable.

We're also after some "overhead" lighting too......will have a proper look later!
