I used Hammerite stonechip shield, if they'd been white and not had any black underseal I'd have used a clear coat from Bilt Hamber.

At long last I got round to replacing the nasty little fog switch with an OE part.
It never sat in the hole as the wires always pushed it forward, not the best pic but you can see the switch under the intercooler spray switches.
So I got a new switch and took the blank out of the IC switch panel, new fog switch now seats neatly in place. I've had to use a grommet to fill the hole that the previous fitter drilled. Thankfully you can't see it unless you put your head down under the wheel to take photos!
Also while I was at it I fitted a cover to my AL switch.

Not bored of her yet. However I do think every now and again it might be time to pass her on to someone else to enjoy, but then I know I know I'd never find anything else like it in the UK. If it went it would be for an RA-R or maybe something from Stuggart.
However, as you say there is quite a que if I did decide to let her go, but I think most would pass when they realised it's not the usual price of a spec c.

I keep an eye out for a Recaro RS-G as that would be a nice addition, other than that nothing other than driving and cleaning.

Thanks, not as rare as I thought as one is up for sale on Pistonheads, now means there are two white RA's in the UK! However I imagine it might go abroad like most of them making mine the only white one.

As a result of this new toy in the stable:
I'll probably be saying good bye to the RA in the new year and getting something a little more sensible.
Can't bring myself to put up an advert though!
