Had to travel afar to get one, okay maybe 2.

First one was from wolverhampton but then found out it was the incorrect version and then found another in Weymouth and so had to travel down there to collect.

All is now fitted and back to norm.

The photo doesn't do it justice.

Great work by James though and would easily recommend him to anyone

Its a different car again Si. It now shows a hint of pink in the blue like the rally car. It shocked both myself and James how much difference its came up after the detail.

Now i'm a happy Chappy and it was worth every penny

It does mate, such a difference. I'm hoping James will post afew more photos on his fb page. I need to keep some photos.

I also had to buy some gear from james to keep it in tip top shape.

He certainly knows what he's doing
