Beardy - The ammount of filler that came off that arch was shocking... The fact that they were using fibreglass for structural parts though is just

Yea, the back bumper had so much silicone on it I couldn't get it off. I ended up just yanking it off until it ripped off. Accidently took a rear light lens out with it

I haven't got much done since as I went out instead of working on the car. I'll see how tomorrow goes, I have to repair the 1.2 though...

Yea, but it takes about 2 hours to get one of those tyres off and an hour to get them on, should have seen the guy sweatting stretching them on... Those wheels arrived an hour after I was supposed to go to Max Live so we weren't going to complain much

Also it doesn't matter too much on the back if the tyres on the wrong way...

Apart from the fact that the back of the car will float along behind you when it rains.

I'm getting a mate to help and teach me to spray I hope... He'll probably spray this car completely though as I guess I'll be paying him to do so

good work on the car, brave man,

30 profile = a very skinny tyre. It would also be a bit of an error to damage the wheel as they would have to buy me a new one, so they were going very slowly and very carefully.

My workshop is currently un-usable. I just drained a fuel tank in there and it needs to be aired as the only gas in there is petrol fumes and they are not nice to breathe

Hmmm, actually, I'll do some stuff on Christmas day, good excuse to get away from the grandparents eh
