right i think pictures are working fine now. so there it is it looks good in the pictures but it is covered in stone chips and and scratches. i decided to de arch the car so i decided to take the arches off. to my horror i wish i didnt.



was not happy the rear arches was ok to honest but i thought they would be the worst.

Reminds me of mine. Had no rust but had to change a wing. With paint this will look awesome!! Best to find rust sooner than later mate. Good work

took a while to get the lines right around the wings but finally got it. fitted the grill and put the bumper. back on. i think it looks the nuts something different and will look the nuts once it has been sprayed. the whole car will be sprayed. i have s--t loads still to do. got smoothed bumpers to put on cl door trims. rear spoiler etc etc ill keep this thread upto date with all progress and pictures also the problems along the way.

hopefully nothing like the arches lol
