Today I went and bought some white primer, and some Vauxhall Glacier white paint.

I also bought some (Red) VHT paint for the rocker covers, and some matt black paint for the rear hubs as I think there's enough red there already on the calipers (Which will also be getting a fresh lick of red, and the 'Vauxhall' stickers added)

Another good thing- My new multi-timer has arrived; so hopefully I'll get round to fitting that tomorrow and MAYBE my electrical fault will be sorted once and for all- FINGERS CROSSED!!

Along with this- my new wing mirror arrived. For those of you that don't know- I have already replaced this wing mirror before, but 2 days after painting and fitting it- I caught it on the gate and broke it!!

Luckily- I managed this time to find one from the same colour/ spec Vectra as mine, and since the paintwork is in great condition- I can just whack it on

Another of my plans for tomorrow is to remove the bottom section of the plenums, and get them stripped and prepped up.

Front and back parts are both ready for a coat of primer or 3.

Center section needs prepping, and priming too.

Sorry I've no pics for you at the moment.. but tomorrow, as always- I will take lots for you

Yes mate it's a bummer when wing mirrors get bashed lol. This is the 3rd wing mirror I've had to replace on my Vec's.

Just got lucky getting one the right colour this time
