Sanded down any loose paint and corrosion, some of these areas were probably the worst on the car


Cleaned then etch primered, near enough ready for wrap now

Good work. I take it even though it's a wrap and not a permanent respray you still have to inform the DVLA of the colour change?

How comes the O/S front arch is shiny and the rest are matte? Did you wrap one?
Looks loads better. Absolutely hated the green. Looks a lot more modern.
