Its pretty pointless if im not driving, all the fun is in the braking for the corner screaching through it (with a little slide if its slippy). and getting the powew down out of the corner!!v

Looks a lot better now.

What's your opinion on them Justin??
Your right Paul they also do my head in - I will end up painting them black/silver or even colour coding them one day.

Ive spent £100 + on getting rid of the stupid orange indicators for crystal ones with silver Tec bulbs and I still have orange wedges!!

Neither will I!! I like my car to have all the panels the way they were when they left the factory!! That's not to say I'll be trundling along at caravan speeds - I'll be making good and safe progress where possible.

Have you ever thought of getting the side skirts and rear spats sprayed too??

I was thinking about it for mine, I've seen it done on other classics and it looks great, just not sure it'd work with my shade of red.

Anyone got any opinions?

It has been known. But only if I know the road!!

Just found this:

http://dbphotographic.smugmug.com/photos/56856800-L.jpg

Love the paint job on that bonnet!! Not too sure on the rest of the car, but it'd look silly on it's own.

Who was I speaking to the other day about something similar?

Was it Andy_S at the cafe in Matlock??

Started this thread in the Members Gallery to get some ideas:

Think I might price this up and get it done.
