Ian, can I have a bit of your old shell please?
Thought you got rid of that old shell!
Keep meaning to chop it up but it's come in quite useful at times.
Dizzycap will be replaced as it's just the one that came with the engine at the mo - hopefully a new red one will be brighter.
Paul I've PMd you :)
Paint it.
Under arches now in stonechip :)

Just need to spray a bit of primer and brush on some 2pack glacier white.
Can i ask why are you not doing behind the "splash guard"
Didn't think there'd be any stones hitting there - will paint over that area when I do the rest of the arches.
Ok cool, i was thinking more to just protect it.
OK who's sick of me waffling about stonechip/underside? lol Me too, so cracked on today sorting it out once and for all
Tipped it over on it's side again:

Chipped all the Hammerite off the top, the stuff flaked off with literally a brush of a screwdriver so would NEVER have lasted on the road. White stuff left on is the tinned stonechip I used - proper crap compared to the proper compressor stuff TBH:

Coated in POR15 paint - bit of a waste cos it's really meant for bare metal but hopefully it'll dry to leave a good protective coating anyway (if not I'll strip it off again lollollol):
