    cheers for the drum comment :D

    and im not sure about painting or decal it, i think i could funk up the decals and then they would look poop and they might not be a perfect fit. where as if i spray them, it might look better, think i will photoshop the grey in and see what it looks like, will update soon with picture.

    got my new brake discs through today, well heavy
    hope to get them on today, or tomor.

    ok just knocked up the grey under doors in photoshop

    is this to dark or to light

    also some one asked what are the problem areas like, battery tray is like mint, has some weird "pad" stuck down on it and is stuck fast, might take a pic and show you, see if you know what it is. rear arches are slighty going, so need to catch them. is a bit under bonnet on the left seem by the suspension turret. cant think of any other problem areas
    comments please

    hey, just a nice small update,
    i wanted to sort out the trim on the sides of the car as they had lost colour and i wanted the grey back like the bumpers.

    so i went out armed with my pinstripe sticker, and scissors and other good tools
    thought i would clean it to let the sticker stick nicer and this came up




    so i was shocked but happy, so i carried on and did the rest and i didnt use any vinyl. good times.




    ok so all the side done and i think it looks awesome.

    then thought i would take some piccs of the stickers i have on my car :D
