Stripped all my bumpers and arches off today ready to paint them only to realise I still have work for the rest of the week so I've had to put two old manky bumpers on the car for the time being and the car is officially looking like a shed now! No arches, stone chipped bonnet and a big dent in the boot!

Some big updates to come! Currently in the middle of spraying my bumpers to colour code them so they should ve done by the end of next week, i've got some pressed plates arriving over the weekend, xenon white dash heater and interior lights to go in, rear number plate light to go in, Wheels to paint and just now ive brought a straight through exhaust and some 60mm springs and struts! A well and truley spoilt car!

I was getting fed up with the poo paint on the centre consol so decided to start sorting that while I was on a painting hype with the bumpers ImageImage it looks a bit yellowy at the moment but it is getting a bit more orangy every coat so hope it looks alright

So my new aim is over the weekend have all the interior sprayed and back together have the door handles, bumpers and arches put back on and fit my springs and exhaust and of I have any spare time I might prep my wheels to be painted. I should get most of it done and will be good to see it all finally back together

Primer took about a can and a half I did build that up quite thick though and the colour is going to take a few cans as it needs building up quite a lot but last time I only used two
