Last thing I'd do is get the inner arches coated with black underseal. Nothing worse than overspray behind the wheels to spoil the overall look.
Cheers
I've already done that.
I think in the pics you can see the dust on the inner arch liners. they were removed when the car was painted so no overspray on them! Just dust from storage!!
Awesome job. As others have said I would have done the door handles though. But other than that it looks fantastic espeiallyu now the wheels are done. Very very good work!!!

Cheers fair comment about the handles but I think they break the sea of blue up a little.

Right, I've pretty much finished the exterior now, I've added a little twist based on my user name for the decals on the fog covers as I didn't want to go down the usual STi route Masking tape was applied to the covers (as I had done on my centre caps), cut out by hand and painted then laquered over so that the blue was a pefect match
Painted the other two wheels too and my brakes black
Anyway I bring you on to the finished article.....

Bodykit removed and all holes welded and smoothed over,
Headlamp washers jet removed, holes plastic welded and smoothed,
