My phone uploaded the pics via my laptop but Microsoft decided to adjust the pics, so lightened up the pics.

Here are the originals.

So to come finish painting the boot, bonnet, doors, bumpers.

Colour sanding all of the above.

Then finish wheels off, paint + lacquer etc.

Lacquer the parts, and final finishing.

Then refit all parts and build back up.

Yeah. Heres some more up to date pics.

There will be no more until the unveiling.







Just needs final pieces put on and bolted up, then mopped and polished.

And when I get the wheels back, fit mudflaps, new number plates, and paint calipers again

And she`s HOME FINALLY, just picked her up.
Whats left is.
1. Figure out how to get central locking back with the alarm (works on key but not on remote).
2. Fit fogs with some spacers.
3. Fit mudflaps.
4. Fit white wheels when I get them back Monday.
5. Sort intercooler out so it sits straight, tiny bit on the squiff.
6. Fit new badges and decals to wheels and grille.
7. Make a new bracket for the front number plate.

















Well what you think??????

Pictures don`t do it justice tbh as the old paint looked ok in pics but in the flesh was horrid. Now its got the pain it deserves.

She certainly looks a lot better, and it certainly looks better in blue than the purple you nearly went for.
