looks very cool!  :cool:

Would probably get some 16v red/black rear lights tho....

The black bumper trim looks well shiny, has it been painted? or what do you use on it?

Looks very nice, I was just going to ask if it had been sprayed recently but you beat me to it  :smiley:

Martin:- have you got a bit of a trim fetish going at the moment  :wink:

 :laugh: :grin: mmmmm arch trims mmmmm.....not exactly, i'm starting to hate the stuff! Not had the chance to put anything on mine for a while so they have gone a sort of light skanky looking speckled grey and one of the rear G60 arches keeps coming off!  :embarassed:

Hi Nicol damn thats a sweet lil car you have there. Was just wondrin how much your respray was and where you got it done? And did you have it resprayed the original colour?

My met grey 8v is in need of some similar TLC. Gotta get some dam photos on here too...

hey the respray was £1600 as the car was a bit of a sh!tter so its been fully restored, practically every panel needed serious repairs. it was done down in bournemouth, but well worth it i reakon!
