Sticking rear handbrake mech both sides
'Glazed' Disc and pads o/s front
Oil Change
Full brake fluid change and bleed
Replace Front splitter with modded one
Fix radio and clock issue.. fit new clock.
Rebuild and test modded VIS motors
Clutch Change
Replace Back Box after old dear bent it with her car
Replace alloys
Fit o/s rear bearing kit.
Fit Ebach springs I got of mick.
Think thats about it.. hope this holiday thing plans out becaue that will give me the extra time to do it haha.
