Long time listener first time caller I have been following the forum since last year when I became the proud owner of a 2008 granturismo since May last year but haven't had the time to really dedicate to getting it sorted out (had previously been a bit neglected but was better as ok by an indy (plus 911 had to go as kids were getting fed up in the back).
So far I have:
To do / advice sought:
Looking at getting it properly detailed and some minor leather damage repaired - any advice for people in Yorkshire region?
That's it for now - thanks in advance

So far I have:
- Had it remapped by DMS (more power and much quicker shifts) no comments saying I should just have got the 4.7 please )
- Replaced rear skyhook shocks as sods law 6 months into ownership one started leaking
- Had it serviced by Ebor GT in York (fantastic service from Angus)
- Replaced the rear parking sensors
- Replaced a dying seat motor
- Replacing rusting wheel bolts with larini / FD ones
- Replaced the battery with a yuhasa one due to odd gremlins on startup
To do / advice sought:
- I need to get a chip kit to repair some v minor damage on door edges but for the life of me can't find the colour code (can't find anything in engine bay- where internet says to look). The car is black. Does anyone know what it would be?
- The car has the aux input in the glovebox but no src input in the head unit JCT Leeds (who are frankly not interested) say the head unit already has the latest f/w so there is nothing they can do. Sounds fishy to me? (Would love the carplay mod)
- There is a very intermittent (in that it doesn't happen often but when it does it seems to go on for a couple of days) squeak from the passenger side rear wheel. It changes based on speed but appears to be unaffected by breaking. Any ideas?
- The leather has started to peel in a couple of areas. Any advice on the best adhesive - I think I have seen some recommended on here but can't find the post again.
