Well got my rocker cover sorted bought new gasket and bolts get it fitted shortly.Went to get my roof vinyled last week had a nightmare the laquer on my roof came off and the vinyl just looked sh!t tbh so I pulled it off and my roof was a right mess  To top it all I then reversed my misses seat alabramah straight into the middle of the door which really pissed me off  Anyway this gave me the excuss to get the cars paint work finally sorted so shes gone in today for both doors to be painted,rear tailgate,rear quater as its rusty buy where the loom comes into the tailgate,hellas being re done gloss black,grill flash red and im having the roof painted gloss black  Cost me a few quid but after having all the other work ive just had done ill be keeping the car for a while now.Once shes painted only jobs left will be wheels refurbed and some minor welding and im pretty much leaving it standard looking how it should look really.Ive posted some pictures up so you can see what happens when vinyl goes wrong and a before and after really ill try get some progress pics up of the paint being done thanks again for looking

Yeah no worries mate £600.Thats the roof,lower drivers door,passanger door as it was dented,whole tailgate,bit where the loom goes into the car from the tailgate,hella head light covers and front grill.Theres a fair bit of blending to do aswell so its a pretty big job and he is a quality painter..
