The passenger door and tailagate were excellent but the drivers door had a tiny hair on the top swage line. I tried to flat and polish it but it must have been under the lacqeur so I couldnt get it out. So the next night it was rubbed down again and back into the booth it went......

Also some windows surrounds were prepared for paint. One of the rears had a slight dent in which was fixed and primed......

And lastly for this eves the front end came back off so I could gravitex the front panel. Using the fine line tape I masked a nice neat line across the lower half of the front panel and just underneath the cooler. Once overpainted it'll look good whilst adding to the protection of the panel etc.....

Thats it for now hopefully some more progress soon! :)

Looking awesome dude, trims in bumper grey? If so nice touch (copy cat lol)
Doors look sexy as.
Nick, are you replacing the existing front bumper?
Trims are going same colour as door handles and fuel cap which is actually a different colour to the wheels and bumpers just slightly though.... I did it this way to break up the two main colours a little.Quote:

Top work as usual.
Are you painting on the grey lower half like you have the wings?
Yes fella, I want the doors on and fully lined up before I do that though. Then I know things we be accurate etc. :)Quote:

Yeh I thought it may be too much with just two colours as the sr's have quite a few different grey on them as standard with the spoiler,handles,mirrors,vinyls,bumpers and surrounds all being slightly different etc. I can see the reyland calipers getting the same grey treatment too as I dont want them to stand out as they do now.Quote:
