what a fantastic job the guy did on it too.
had the new bonnet sprayed, the dents and scratches taken out of the front wings, and them re-sprayed, and the nsty scratches (quite deep too) taken out of the rear quarters and them all blown in. he even did the doors while he was at it too. highly reccomended to anyone within the cardiff area

so i washed her up this morning after a night of rain, and took some pics

the job is fucking class mate. the first paint he was snet was the wrong shade in the correct paint coded tin, so when it was painted it looked shit so he had to rub it all back down and do it again. he was a fucking quality sprayer and as i said in my post aboce, i wouldnt hesitate to reccomend him to anyone

looks good, If I was you i'd go for a GSI front bumper, remove the red side strip and have the arches and rear bumper colour-coded and it'll look sweet

thats from where i twatted the front off it.
i think the slam panel could do with a bit more adjusting to get it sitting perfect

mattyboy1999, they pulled a dent out of each front wing, did the scratches on one of the front wings, sprayed them both and sprayed my new bonnet. then took the deep scratches out of the rear quarter panels and sprayed the whole sides of the car including the doors. quality bit of work

Rio Verde is a pretty easy colour to match.
