I decided to get some better pictures of the car with the rear 25mm spacers on.... It is tight against the lip of the arches but this lip will be bent back so there will be plenty of room

so went up today to measure the wheels against the arches (seen as they were rubbing up against with the 25mm spacers on). The area that was cut was marked out and removed. He then smoothened off the ends so that there was no sharp edges, then added Kurust and will leave it be for a couple of hours before its prept. He said he is going to add some rubber sealant around the edge of the arch (same thats used on the rear inside arches so that they will never rust). I know the car has been down the bodyshop since October and progress doesn't seem to be much, but he has had loads of work on and his mother in law passed away recently so i couldn't exactly hurry him along. Hopefully should be ready for the FCS, if not then its no problem as im no hurry tbh Smile

Im glad i went up to see the job, as i can now apply the same method on the other black Coupe i have in my garage to remove that superficial rust on the arches now Smile

Was following this project on Coupe-Club.co.uk when i had my F7R, looks amazing. You planning selling up and getting a 206 Shanukes??

hi mate, i do remember your user name, im never going to sell the Coupe, they are worth nothing these days, and ive spent way too much on her to get rid now Sad

but im still enjoying so couldnt get rid tbh. My gf has a Peugeot 206 so im trying to get that factory mint as possbile, car needs to be porter cabled so will do it in the summer, will get some pictures up before, during and after... Smile

thanks for the overall comments guys.....the coupe should be sprayed up by next week so will show you the results then, and before you ask the paint is under wraps so don't ask what it is Razz

Not really my kind of thing, but if it makes you happy and you have money to spare, then keep going I guess.
