Alright nick...looking mean, love the carbon bits and stealth look. How easy was you rear badge to do...was thinking of the same thing, any chance of a close up pic?

Hi, as requested some close up pics, i removed the badge earlier so i could take off the carbon vinyl as it was starting to weather (cheap stuff) its not to bad to remove but i did have to use a screwdriver to start it off then trim removal tool to work it round, i got all my parts sprayed at a body shop in Harold Wood (Essex) i do have a few things in mind so may be changing these in a few weeks

Hey mate its called Elite Panel Craft, its opposite Harold Wood station 01708344947 ive only had parts sprayed (no body work) and not had a problem!

 

[G30001]

Cheers fella, used to use an old guy I'd known for years who was unreal and cheap as chips but he's retired and good sprayers are hard to find.
Just need the top of the bootlid done as it has a few nasty chips that are starting to rust.

Looked at a decent DPB on Monday just hope it's still there once my credit file is cleared.
