Got a LHD rear light for the right hand side :D

All I need now is a red bulb for the drivers side one to keep a red fog.

Just thought I'd jazz up the dead pedal a bit because the TT pedals really over power it.

Before

and now, getting it smooth enough to paint was a bit of a task :shock:

I spent quite a while with a little power sander going through 60 grit, 80 grit, 120 grit, 240 grit and then 800 grit (I think) wet and dry.

Took quite a while to do and wasn't the easiest thing.

Not too sure what Si did in the end Alun, I have PM'd him to find out though.
