ill start:
For inters 10&11 may
paint the other side of my car
paint and smooth the boot
paint remaining rub strips
fit screen in glove box and fit in car
clean
clean some more
fit some new tyres
maybe wind the coils a little lower
possibly fit bonrath strut bearings (lower and harder)
hook up oil temp (maybe tommorow)
clean
(oh and give her a service)
and at inters i might be fitting some kevlar pads (if josh ever asks)
for the rest of the year
anything on the above list that didnt get done
retrim and fit my recaros or sell them and buy some black/silver bucket seats (180 euro a piece :D)
buy and fit rs4 replica bumpers all rund with rieger in the rear and lumma up front

Right, i know most of you will now fall out with me for some of the following...

18'' alloys (TD Diablos or Allesio Veluta 5 spokes)
Bespoke DTM bodykit consisting of front/rear bumbers and sideskirts
dual side exit exhaust (2 pipes on each side - just before the rear wheel)
Lexus lights
Crystal lights all round
Respray in Dragon Green (with added silver flip)
Nu-Custom graphics
A rear spoiler (like J-Os black Mk5)

Some interesting stuff, but unfortunatly most of its happening over next winter (due to finances), so i'm still not sure if i'm doing the show circuit this year....

Nah, to each his own- What matters is what you like.

Ontopic:

I'm a bit lost really, don't know what I'll do next. Leaning towards power increases (small ones). And getting my A/C fixed. Again.

Only a month!! :shock:

Well, my "mod plan":

ASAP:
Sort the geometry, I really must get it sorted asap!

For inters
Fit Caractere kit
Fit colour coded mirrors, door handles & rubbing strips
Give her a good ol' clean

Rest of the year
Sort wheels (1 damaged)
Get damage on rear bumper sorted :evil:
Find a method of switching boot LEDs on and fit those
Maybe W8 light mod?
Re-fit ICE with a new headunit
Re-mount speakers in front doors making proper collars
Look into fitting HIDs (get some H7 (?) capsules for use with ballasts)

Not much to do for inters, but it all relies on other people, which as I've learnt many times, isn't a good thing when you need things to be done![/b]

Well for me:
Until this summer:
- Fit the Creative Carbone M4 mirrors I have
- Try to get some coilovers

Not sure when I'll do this:
- Get some leather (blue /black)
- Tint the windows
- Rear lights
