Happy Easter one and all :thumb:

My recent bit of handywork:

Ignition Surround - £6.50 eBay (or use existing)
Silver Silk No.2 Aerosol - on the shelf
Around 5 - 10mins of fettling!

Wasn't sure how this would look so I kept the original part but actually I am pretty pleased with it. Minimum effort.. :grin:

Any other contributions welcome.. (no Feu Orange zone :nooo:)

Thanks bud :thumb:

Well worth it, feels totally different to drive with the slightly thicker steering and paddle shifters. Was thinking today - you have 4 fingers but only 1 thumb which needs to remain planted!!
