looks like youve done a top job spraying it mate (is this the one you sprayed yourself in your garage ??) although i wouldnt of put the numberplate there
Nice looking car, I quite like that bodykit. What does the flick switch do next to the light controls?
yes it is the one from the garage :) After rubbing it down a few times with the compound it turned out well. I know it stands out to much but it wouldnt go anywere else. Looked od in middle. The swich is for them spot lights and the one below it is to open the boot.
Doesn't stand out too much, was just curious. :)

Hi,
Did you just use the rolls of carpet and if so how many did you need and was it easy to shape and fit?
Thanks,
Andy
Looks like you've done a great job from the pictures but please please please move the REAR number plate. It looks awful where it is and kinda defeats the point of smoothing the boot. Have you tried it covering the rear towing eye??

saw this car before. you drove past me in greasby.
must say the colour is spot on, better in real life than the pics.
not a huge fan of the whole 'kit' thing though, and that number plate doesnt look any better in real life lol
