Seriously considering jacking it in...

Shame on both counts, get the back sorted, then worry about the car.

The Typhoon is a fantastic colour, my tf goes from violet blue to a bottle green, depending on the time of day. Can understand why you want to use it to show your detailing skills off.

Must be someone that will do a good job, specially if you say you can recommend their work.

Hate to say it, but when I had a back problem had to get an auto, so much pain changing gear. But get it sorted, seems like it never will, but it does.

All the best and hope you find someone with the skills and at the right price.
