i've just finished painting the passenger side wing, its been off the car for a week or so now and i have had a temp wing from the old car in place(you might have noticed the dodgy hole in the wing in the last few pics)

so anyway, i started grinding the rust back, fillered and primered it.... then got carried away and ended up smoothing over the arial hole... which ended up with me spraying the whole thing haha, but its come out good so im happy

pic doesnt do it justice, its by far the best body panel i have sprayed so far

Good work mate.Like the stub axle spacers. :evil:
For future reference ive got 78 12.9 longer stub axle bolts as i couldnt buy just 8 so bought a box of 100.
I will never use that many so ive just been sending them out for the cost of postage so if you get stuck and want some more give me a shout.

Cars looking really well btw. :cool:

cheers mate, im all good for the time being but i'll give you a shout if i ever need any more :)


got the wing on, paint matches ok i think, the bonnet, drivers side wing and front bumper are all alpine white as they are off my old car so ignore those for now
the doors and rear quarters really need a good polish as they are pretty much matte at the moment so i think once thats done the wing should fit in nicely

Looking good mate! Although, I do think the headlights are a little bit to dark! Can you even see anything at night? lol! And what have you got planned for the door mirrors?
