It's been a while since the last update The body workshop was fully occupied during the last weeks and finally, they started with my car yesterday. The PIU bumper is fitted on the car to check how it fits and if some trimming is required, here it is: LE side skirts to follow tomorrow and hopefully body preperation for paint will start next week. I have a couple of questions: 1- my old oil cooler duct is broken and I don't feel I'm going to fit it again. Does it affect (raise) oil temperatures when not installed? Ok, did a little search and seems to be ok but Highwayman noticed increased oil temperature when he removed the duct. I might put it back then, will see 2- oil pressure gauge takes a while to rise when I start the car, here is a video to get an idea. I know the gauge shouldn't rise when the ignition on and engine is off but I'm talking about when I turn on the engine. Is that normal? (I forgot how it was acting in the past)

Thanks mate. I'm sure I'll need to replace the mesh in the PIU bumper in future as it'll be deteriorated, I might consider the mesh type you posted in future, it looks nice

The car wouldn't start on today I think the fuel pump (new Walbro 255) has gone!!! the car had very low fuel level for the last 4 months (while being in the workshop) and has been started few times. Once it was filled with fuel yeaterday, it wouldn't start They will check it after finishing the body polish. Maybe there is just some air in the lines. Regarding front bumper, I would definitely add some black mesh to the it. It will look great. You can call it "the black stallion"

Possible Freddan. I also think the new fuel got mixed up with the old fuel in the car and maybe blocked something or seized the pump. I don't recall that I heared the pump priming / whining thought. They will check today and I hope it's a minor issue. I wish I had the time to stay in the workshop everyday to stay on the top of them!!! The good thing is that Omran has a spare pump so I'll not have to wait to order a new one in case it turns up to be a pump problem As for the bumper, it has a black mesh but seems to be a light mesh type. I shall consider other mesh options. And yeah, once the Coupé is finished, I'll be having two black stallions
