Are they all spray painted in the factory finish or moulded with a colour in the blend? Also is the outer trim removeable/swapable?

As per my 'item wanted' post...i need to know if they're all sprayed or hold out for a gunmetal (faster:) )one..

I'm looking for a mirror......I need an offside/drivers mirror trim, (top part and outer edge surround or maybe the whole unit if you can't/won't split) ...Preferably gunmetal grey...someone rolled a van (pushing it down my mates street) into mine and cracked it this evening :-( let me know if you might have one...

Reverse switch problem

Have you got the right one? The neutral switch and reverse switch are close together and look similar.

Well I thought things were going too well. The underside has come up well and is looking a whole load better now.
Turns out pre 2009 cars don’t need reverse lights to work to pass an MOT, so I can solve that problem another day. (Switch is working fine, but no signal getting to the rear)
New tyres delivered yesterday and I can just run them down the local fitting shop and have them fitted.
So I thought to myself, I’ll throw on the new pads and discs tonight, and she will be ready to go!
Then the brake pipe broke from the calliper and I had a sense of humour failure.

I was just completing my booking but realised that it’s one of my daughter’s 16th birthday! I’ll check what she’s up to and see if I can get a pass! She may come with me, but doubtful. Will update as soon as I know.

Check engine light comes on and off sporadic.

Those codes are all pointing at a related issue. A/F ratio falling out of range, heater elements within the O2's out of temp range, EGR sensor or exhaust gas temp falling out of range, etc. There is a few areas to consider...
Was any work recently done to the car that may have triggered this? When was the last time you replaced the O2 sensors? Check the O2 connectors and wiring to make sure one of them hasn't contacted the exhaust or melted. Any exhaust leaks especially before the cats? When was the last time you performed an induction service and cleaned the intake, TBs, IAC, etc? The EGR and IACV love to get carbon buildup over the years and can affect flow, similarly can happen to the vac lines to the factory wastegate control solenoid. You mentioned the car felt like it was still running well, so no idle RPM fumbling, hanging, stumbling, etc? Are you running an aftermarket boost control solenoid or OEM? Sorry for the load of questions, but need a bit more to go off of to help point you in the right direction.
Even though the vehicle has considerable low mileage, it's still 30 years old. If it's kept in a garage it tends to handle the elements better than sitting out in the external environmental conditions and will need more routine maintenance and care regardless if it's being driven or not. (i.e. 60K / 120k maint w/ timing belt)
