Post Registration 6

I haven't managed to get out in it much weather has been very poor indeed. Have been able to do a little work on it though. The carbon wrap on the mirrors started to look tatty almost immediately. I have purchased some proper 3M carbon wrap and also some 3M bonding solution. The new wrap is much better it feels thicker and hopefully it together with using the bonding agent should mean a better result that wont start to bubble and peal as soon as it sees the sun.

I did go to work in it for the first time the other evening. I needed to do some work in the office later in the evening so knew the roads would be quiet, it had been a nice day and was still warm with no threat of rain until the early hours so decided to give it a run.
A cross city commute is not what it is best suited to, there are quite a few section of road with the speed bumps that allow you straddle them with a wheel on each side, great in my Focus but not so with the Westfield. Approached each batch very cautiously as they are all slightly different. Over almost all of them there was no issue but I did ground it a couple of time, very unnerving.
It also allowed me to see just how poor the lights are, I have ordered some HID conversions and while I'm at it some day time running lights. Once they're fitted I'll take it for another run in the dark so I can set them up for the best light coverage and spread.
