Congratulations on becoming a dad. I can so agree with the lack of time comment. With 2 its even harder!!!

Wheel colour chose is a good one. Looking forward to seeing this at Billing.

cheers.. I couldn't imagine having two currently! That said though In a few years it will no doubt happen as it's what we both would like.

I wish I had body shop to use like you do mate,
Really high standard of work as usual nick.

we all have our different bonuses don't we. Somedays I wish I'd never got into the trade!

Eye for detail...

Cheers!

Your my hero Nick love the new touches!

Thanks Si! Bet you'd rather the wheels silver though eh?

pure porn!

cheers Johnny!

Awesome dude, looks amazing, glad the mirrors are of some use.
Did you treat the bumpers? As they look darker, that's why i thought they had been painted.
Police might not bother, but mot man won't like the plates they hated J 20 XE

Yeah ive gel'd the bumpers up that's all though. As they were new they didn't really need much. I have proper plates for it so most of the year will probably run them. Plates above are just for shows if I can get away with it. I've worked on hundreds that do!

Nice work on cleaning the paint up dude, mines been a nightmare for it over the last few months.

yeah nick, i see loads of illegal plates, iffy spaced to spell out named etc, black and silver, most of them don't care and have enough money i guess to keep paying the fines, its the people who don't realise if your displaying say and England flag instead of EU you still get done, stupid really, but like i say if it's on something like a nova you always get spotted, well mine did
Like you say though normal plate for on the road keeps them happy, better then £35 for each time they notice.

It took a fair bit of effort but I'm happy with the results. Martin had only ever used 3m imperial hand glaze to clean it as it's non abrasive. I think he has worried about scratching the surface which shows easily on the solid colours. Although It was painted 8 years ago you'd think It was done recently! Looks very well.

Cheers..... I use elite registrations and dvla. Dvla are generally the cheapest going though for exactly the same product. Try think outside the box to find something your after etc.

Yeah I don't think the spaced plates will be on long tbh.
