Yeh virtually a full respray in Moonstone Blue (minus roof) with front and rear bumpers colour coded. Sill and A-Post repaired. Bonnet washer jets flushed and repaired.
Gutter Strips, Rear door handles, roof rack bars + mirrors being sprayed gloss black.
I'm popping up tomorrow to get some fresh pics before it arrives home next weekend ready for a rebuild. Car's now be fully flatted since those pics and full mopped.

I've wanted to keep it subtle so outrageous colours werent on the list.
The roof didn't need spraying but I am contemplating on either having it wrapped in Gloss Black Vinyl or after chrismas having it sprayed Gloss Black.

Well car arrived home at 1 looking like this;
An hour and a half later and a hell of a lot of p**sing about with the bumper bolts + fitting a few other things it looked like this;
Then did the school run and came back and started fitting the wheels. 20mm spacers on the fronts and 25mm spacers at the rear end up with the wheels sitting like this;
I've only managed to do one side as it started chucking it down.
It's going back into bodyshop once it's on the road for a few additions/subtractions. I'm also going to get rid of any leather thats on the outside of the car as now that the gloss black is on it looks abit out of place.
Let me know what you think.

Cheers Wagsy  Still can't believe you sold yours  would have been pretty cool parked side by side at FCS or similar.
The Nimrods are here to stay untill further notice purely because I'm trying to keep the car as OEM looking as possible. Yeh I have had quite a few sets for this car but I think the Nimrods best suit it for the look I'm going for
Definately keep an eye on this mate as I've got quite abit to do and update over the next few days.

Cheers Matt, It's sitting at approximately 60mm atm.
I'm gunna drop it another 10mm at the front tomorrow and see how it goes from there.
Still need to get back to you about the beams. Just waiting to speak to my Dad as soon as he gets home and I'll get back to you on it. Also how can you check how seezed the bars are..?
