Crap update, started on stonechipping the car... Rear panel.. Had to weld up a few bits I missed last time



Spent 5 minutes making up a side panel for the dash, used the panel for the inside of the boot for some reason I quite like the kick up part of the panel lol think it might look quite good when its bonded on and flocked



Crap pics as usual

You know the trim that covers the rear wiper motor on inside of the boot, that... Was the closest thing to hand when I was sitting in the car so I grabbed it and it looks ok
