JAE - Like christmas but hotter :)

This weekend is JAE. The biggest japanese car show of the year.
It is being help in Peterborough at the East Of England showground and for the first year, I am going! This is also my first NPOC meet so I'm really looking forward to finally meeting everyone. I have tomorrow (Friday 21st) off work so I can prepare the car and then I'm off tomorrow afternoon, meeting Nik (a fellow NPOCer) en route.
I am really excited, it should be a good laugh. Before I can go though I have a mahoosive list to accomplish:

  • Wash and wax exterior
  • Clean glass
  • Remove and recover door pillar vinyl
  • Remove (and clean) alloys
  • Re-paint calipers
  • Affix caliper graphics
  • Fit new rear reg plate
  • Try to fix the side undercar LED bars (wiring issue I think)
  • Hoover, brush and clean upholstery
  • Clean dash
  • Gunk and clean engine
  • Adjust gains and volume with new amp
  • Tidy up my temporary boot build
  • Fix embedding problem with Datascan on the CarPC
  • Install Girder and fix a problem with hibernating mapmonkey and winamp on the CarPC
  • Apply demon bodystyling graphics
It's a hefty list! Once I've done all that, break out the cling film to protect against suicidal bugs and away we go!
