Painted the grill in PPG satin black expoxy enamel. It’s like new again. Did the old badge in shadow chrome. Went too dark though. I used to have a gloss black one there.

You’ll see the flash wiper assembly. I’m going to do a thread on that. I’m reasonably happy with the engine bay. I will do the guard bolts but the guards have to come off to swap out to threaded clips underneath.
I also made a better earth strap between the firewall and the body. It has solved a few electrical niggles. Would highly recommend doing on any VT-VZ.
