Cheers Paul, pleased with the paint job so far

It's all your fault Richard, if you hadn't forced me to drive over to Ireland then none of this would have happened Remind me to give you a warm can of beer at The Lakes

Looks well m8, can't quite see but has the sunroof gone? and the million dollar question, is the bvr going back on?

[Martin]

Sunroof is still there. As for the BVR I'm leaving it off for now and depending on how I like the look I may or may not re-fit it in the winter

[Martin]

Another update.... Getting towards the finish now as it has now had both coats of paint on and the black has been painted on the back panel, sills and window surrounds They were starting the final rub down and polish of the car and getting the doors etc. ready to be put back on when I was there today.

Tell me if its getting repetative...
