Looks really good...that colour is my favourite classic now, wonder why it isn't more popular? IMHO you need to colour key the skirts though to finish it off.

LOL.

I agree though. Get those side-skirts colour coded in "Burgandy" (as you call it... It's actually spelt "Burgundy", methinks - Although I know it's Mica Red ).

What next then, Andy?!?!?!?

Colour coding will follow next i reckon. I also need smoked indicators front and side. Then maybe a spot of modest tints.

Then i want a P1 splitter and ideally P1 driving lights cos they make the front end look wicked!

A bit dirty ? that's blindingly clean and the wheel go so well with that colour.

What polish/wax have you used? I've just bough one of the Swissol Samuir kits, and even though I've only tried it on the front right wing ... I don't think it's that shiny

Maybe I should leave the wax for a bit longer next time, or not do the waxing 35c heat

The car does appear clean in those shots i suppose - but its covered in that sandy crap from rain.

The wax i use is just autoglym stuff, using an electric buffer - once every other month or something.

Then everytime i wash the car (usually weekly) once i am finished i take it to the local (Tesco) jetwash and use their spray hot wax and then the spot-free finish.
