PJ, nice deal on the fuel lid - Might get one myself when i check out yours! and a bargain too @ 31.8465 EUR +vat and PP!


Re; Rims - its totally subjective re;styling.

I would heartily agree with Steve re; weight. Try and keep it down and get a good compromise on weight and styling. Check out the rota styles - they offer both.

I'm hoping to get my car indoors sometime this year in order to do a "few" jobs, beginning to wonder now because I'd be tempted to go beyond just the few, once I can walk away from it and close a door as the mood suits :? :?

Fair dues there PJ :wink:

:P Fergus: The bubbles, were from where they were sanding and filling the car, and NO it's not my spray gun, it's a garage doing the body work for me :)

:lol: Steve: Yep, going to spray the centre console.

And yes I was rather shocked to see her (the car!!) will all her parts exposed :) :)

Well they finished stripping her today, bonnet gone after I left.
So because they are busy, she's not going for spraying until 21st of April, then reassemble on 23rd, tyres on the morning of the 24th, Ash doing some "magic" for me on the evening of the 24th :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
So no more pictures until......................................................the big unveiling on Saturday the 25th!!!! Hopefully :mrgreen:

I'd leave the paint alone for a few weeks to let it go rock hard before doing anything to it, don't even wash or wax it.

Thanks for the advise Fergus, didn't realise that about the paint.
If it rains heavily would it effect the new paint job?

Ash is doing a job for me top secret stuff!!
