I have a lot of time for your car bood, looks like a top 5 and I even quite like the wheels, again maybe just the colour that suits it so well.

Not sure about that mate

lol

The build thread shows the truth, the first number of photos were taken by the owner before, they lie about its condition back then

Time to swap from past to present Speedline's I think ...

Took all those photos and forgot to pop in the centres

Of course .. the rad is just for decoration

Trial fitted my grill now the tabs been fixed, and happy that FINALLY I have a 5 where the grill sits straight

Laid the bonnet on quickly and IMO looking good

That's it for now.. But very happy with how the plans have come out so far.. Long may they be put into practice

**bood** · 20-09-2013, 22:10

Had a call today to say the bits are ready

(After a nightmare with the first lot of paint

)

He did however forget to do the roof gutter end caps I needed doing

Sorting them another time.

All very nice glossy glossy black. Bumper is sat on to keep it off the floor

Would like to get myself some rep black variant decals if they ever happen so then I can make a start building up the bodykit. Need to do a little tiny patch up of welding which is pictured many pictures back of the inner arch or it'll fill with water once its on the road

Top top work mate! Black 5's are the best

definitely the best choice for me for oe paint especially as its mint. Pain in the arse to keep it looking clean though, I've recently got a black bmw and its a nightmare to keep looking nice. But once it's washed and polished it looks amazing. Keeps the pics flowing.
