Little Update,

most of the car has been sprayed, its allot deeper then the old colour yellow, but i love it!

The pearl in the sun, is amazing, these photos dont show it but its there......

Old colour..



New colour







The boonet, boot, spoiler, front and rear bumpers and hard top is still left.

The alloys are still to be done. And the geometry is being done in the merc garage and then its finished

You are right, it does need a decent camera, i was using the iphone which we all know is shite!

the pics do make it look allot deep/ more orange then it really is. The owner has been taking pics with his SLR camera at each step so i'll post them when he gives me the disc.

I love the colour, i appreciate its not to everyones tastes, thanks for the comments though
