I know the Red's well used Darren but it matches with the Blue car just right... as Kev have done his Black and Gold to match his colour scheme.

Well since we have a big show this sunday and i think i have all day saturday to clean the car, me thinks the wheelarches could be in for a treat.
Done the calipers already a while back,so does anyone have a good step by step guide on how to clean and finish the arches ? or should i stop being lazy and use the search function
