Thanks a lot for the insights @brainf18 ... decided to check them out and ordered a set, but will probably take a few weeks to arrive. Once I've swapped them on, I'll come back and chip in with my impressions too 👍

Good try. I gave it a "wow" reaction anyway. Initially I was baffled why there were no skid marks behind or in front, or how somebody could have hit you (while parked) and yet sprayed debris backwards and not moved the vehicle... :D Pro tip for next year. Include skid marks in the prompt.

If only... on my Feb 2024 build, first blister appeared a couple of weeks ago.

Argh, that's frustrating... I feel for you. As is often the case, Google giveth, and Google taketh away 😞

Fair shout. I actually ended up giving Peek metal polish a try, and was pretty pleased given the nearly-zero effort I went to this time. I'll probably give it a more serious go when I next work on the car (and maybe test some BKF).

The sun was out this weekend, so I finally crawled into the boot and fitted my GRP short shifter kit, and so far my TLDR review is that it feels great. Generally much tighter feel, and 1-2 is very much improved, which is a nice surprise. The most invaluable tool in this endeavour was a...
