Still got the passenger door handles and rear door handles to finish as they kept falling over, thinking of doing the whole of the centre console around the gear stick and handbrake and back all the way to the rear cup holders.

Yeah looks good, just need to do the door handles, will give them another coat in a min, the kept falling over so kept having to restart them.
Just badges, grill, calipers, tints, side repeaters, centre consol trim, gear gaitor, lower, rear spoiler, chnage chin spoiler and rear valance ( or spray) and engine covers to do!!!! :laugh: :laugh:
