very intense project to say the least!!

for me its dragging so much i'm car-less and i haven't been with out my car since i was 17!
Big let down today after talking to Wolf (air compressors) on the phone yesterday about collecting a compressor kit this morning(that was in stock and held for me) at a price of €200, i travelled to just outside carlow to find they had sold 2 parts from the kit and weren't willing to upgrade the parts, but also told me that it was now €260 to buy it (even though it is being still displayed on there website for €200. I felt like crying, wasn't happy at all.
On the brightside i went to halfords to get the colour for the car, the guy there was really helpful, and allowed me to mix more glitter flec to the paint and a more pearl. There will be no colour like it!
He also gave me a touch up stick and a spare tub of the custom paint for free!
