Joe that looks stunning..! Did you polish and glaze using the machine polisher?

I'm booking a day or 2 off soon to get mine done! Letting the side down.

Also I still haven't done the White sidelights mod yet...!

Cheers for the response guys! i have a new Lens for my SLR coming so will get some better shots soon. Chris, yes i polished using my DA, and i've started glazing with it and a finishing pad aswell. Just work it in on a low speed..

Only the bottom side of the passenger door and the roof and front bumper to go- although it has just started raining.again. so looks like i'll have to wit till tomorrow! :roll:

Hey Joe... sorry if it's been mentioned already but are you wheels 16"? They look great with the BBS caps :)

Nice Plates! I really want to get a decent (legal) set for mine.
