cheers lads, after a few days the bumper has grown on me so need to sort a custom lip of some sort to tidy it up... possibly have a set of (very) subtle skirts organised too and a boot lid.... so thats all thats happening to the body for the moment!
all goin well we'll be spraying her next week and it should be mint then!
was also thinking instead of goin to the bother of pullin the engine straight away might just do the turbo gasket, get it on the road and put it through a test... sure for all I know the gasket blowing is hiding other noises (hopefully not) so I'm better off driving it for a bit first...

started stripping the car, interior being removed just to clean it all out and then if I go for a very different shade of red I'm goin to spray inside the doors, boot, etc..
** that's not rust in the boot, its the wooden piece that holds up the carpet
I've been gathering a few bits over the last few days
Got an original lip to and clipped it on last night to see how it looks

well it's coming along SLOWLY enough
paint prep is taking ages with random scratches and stone chips, etc. plus a tiny bit of repair in places...
all going well it should be in primer by tomorrow evening and hopefully sprayed by the weekend...
removed the aerial and rear wiper, few strips of fiberglass underneath, I reckon it will look cleaner
Also adjusted the gearing on the car
in Forza hehe
still need to get wheels but cash monies in short supply so will have to wait till payday for that final touch..

finally making some progress...
everything has now been sprayed, just need to start putting it all back together..
the colour looks a bit brighter in the flesh its just reflecting the roof in the garage...
picked up a set of Rota GTRs yesterday
might spray the Rotas bronze but they'll stay white for a while anyway while I focus on getting the car back together... just want to get it on the road now
