Like the colour mate, the manta rims look funky.
So the car is all primed, just needs a rub down and painting, i wish ! Had a half day on friday to prep the body, my fingers so sore after all the rubbing down i have done. Got the roof, qtr's, wings, boot lid and the strut brace rubbed down ready to paint. I did rub down the bonnet and doors but there were a couple of ripples in them so they will be re-primed and flatted again.
