That is looking good.

Got some more done today.
First of I've got another cover done.
Then I've fully washed the car. Tfr first, rinse, meguiars gold class wash. I don't use tfr on my car normally but wanted to get rid of alot of crap.
The cars in its early stages yet but I did get time to put 1 coat of fusso on. Amazing stuff for the price.
Also was able to use my halfords microfiber glove for my wheels. Makes it so much easier to clean.
Exhaust has had a quick clean. And while on the floor I've adjusted the rear k sports.

Lovely car - I do like the carbon fibre bits. Really looks well against the car's colour

Few more bits done. Managed to paint most of the gearbox. I cleaned with tfr. Then wire brushed and sanded as much as I could. Tfr again. Then brake cleaner. The a few coats of high temp paint. I will try to protect it once dry. Not sure on what. Buy I guess a good detailer is better than nothing.
Took the carbon wrap off the strut brace. Just need to redo the red ends.
The carbon cais has had a sand and a touch up.
And finished my battery lid.
Quite happy with the results. New painted bits will get ceramic coated in a few days.

90% percent done. Not as shiney as it looks in the pictures.

Most parts have been stripped. Just waiting on a load of new black bolts.
