Quick update.
Got Andys hawkeye panels edged up in blue and fitted to the front of his car, Andys electricain mate called in to do the headlight electrics on both cars. So big thanks there.
After that I blocked all my repairs on my car and removed the front bumper bar, Andys slam panel came from Subaru along with my rear arch spats.
Hoping to get my car painted on sat. And then Andys mid week.
Pics to follow tomorrow.

Quick little update, nothing visual.
Got my boot lid polished so I could mount my spoiler, then started to block some of the paint work down so it can breathe.
Also both slam and headlight panels have been removed off both cars, the hawkeye headlight panels will be here in the morning, then both cars can have them welded in place. Also ordered us both the updated square boot lock.
Once all the welding is done both front ends can go back on for final fitting, then I'll finish the sanding on mine for buffing and Andys can go into primer ready for paint later in the week.
