[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 1041395, member: 13739"] So, been doing a little more maintenance recently. I've got a big washer leak, where the washer tank will empty every couple of days. So I replaced the pumps and grommets/filters for the windscreen and headlight washers hoping that was the cause of the leak, but it's still leaking. Narrowed it down to the nearside headlight washer itself, so ordered the parts to replace both the actuators and nozzles on both sides to be sure. I've also got a replacement front wing to fit which is rust free, so need to find time to fit that soon as well. Been eyeing up some wheels too. I really don't like the standard MV1 alloys on the car, they're not to my taste + they're a nightmare to clean + one leaks air. Problem is I want a set of slightly old school 5 spokes, but there's not many options out there and the ones I've found are wide with low offsets, so gonna struggle to get them to fit. Either that or they're hellish expensive - £1k+ per corner, and I can't justify spending twice the value of the car on wheels! I absolutely hate the stretched tyre/camber scene, so the other option is to roll/flare the arches or go more drastic by welding in some M3 arches. [/QUOTE]
