Ok. Got the car back today. It looks very fresh. But...the stickers leave it down. Serves me right for buying off ebay I hear you shout! True. They look decent from a few feet away, but up close, not great. So I'm currently looking into buying oem decals, more money!

If it's got tits or tyres...sooner or later it will give you trouble!

Should have an update with pics tomorrow or tue.

ok, heres a few pictures for a quick update.

the wing had a couple of spots of broken paint for one reason or another. It got a respray along with the front bumper.

Plan was to do a big thread but forgot the camera 1 of the days so here goes...

First up was some paint, front bumper was showing its age so was sent off to RCC to be seen too, while over there it was agreed between Ross and Rick to do the front wing on passenger side. While this was been done a sent 1 set of wheels off to Wheel Wizards for refurb.

So starting with some pictures, the car had a machine polish or 2 at some stage in its life and was plenty of evidence of this around the car.

Also some paint readings showing how low the paint was, we got lower then these just no pictures!! Highest on the car was about 117 :eek:
