Giving the RS a bit of love and attention

[magpie21]

I've been promising myself for a long while to give the RS a bit of love and attention to get it back to A1 condition. I've had it for three years and it isn't my daily so has less than 60k on the clock and I'm trying to keep it in tip top condition.
There are a couple of things I've always said I'd like to do and have never got round to it so thought I'd buy the bullet now.

First up are a pair of recaro CS. I had the BMW performance versions in my M3 and loved them so these were the logical choice rather than wingbacks with RS4 embossed in which would have made my teeth itch. These are hydropdipped carbon versions straight from recaro with two stage heating which I'll rig up to the standard switch.







Next up is a flat bottom steering wheel. I want to keep the OEM look rather than putting in a FBSW out of a TT or something so have opted for the standard 3 spoke made into a FBSW with thicker padding



Next is to get the calipers refurbed. I've used BCR to refurb calipers on some of my other cars and there work is out standing. The calipers are still away at the moment and left looking like this...



And should return looking like this...



I'm also getting the front end resprayed to get rid of any stone chips.

I'll post some some pics once I've got everything back together but just wanted to share my excitement

Love those seats. I can sit in them all day.

Very nice. But. Rule 1 the Cobra!

Great additions, more pics of the garage needed though.

[magpie21]

Ha
No worries

Stop it now

[SimonS4MTM]

What floor is that, if you mind me asking?

[Eddie555]

Wow. Looks like you might have done a deal with your Mrs. New kitchen for her and a sh1t loads of toys for you. Fair play to you.

The flooring I got from costco similar to this..http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/262793556237?_mwBanner=1

Only cost £100 quid for the whole floor and you just trim the edges with a Stanley knife. It's not the most hard wearing but is cheap enough just to replace the tiles as and when

[SimonS4MTM]

Love it, cheers

[magpie21]

The units are just ikea ones with a seconds oak worktop off eBay. Looks far more expensive than it actually was

[daytonamart]

Yep, that'll do it. Nice space and cars.

Lovely Cobra and looks like you are going to pamper the RS well. Let's see a picture of the RS too please.

[bam_bam]

Cobra. Dream car. That's a good'un too. Great colour combo and no chrome work around the front air-dam. What's the donk? Running gear? Is it a Dax or sommit else? Interior shot, please.

That cobra has given me a chubby!
