Be a good week to lay down top coat aswell mate. If it's to warm the paint doesn't flow out giving you a peeley finish, if it's nice and cool but still warm enough then it will lay down nice for you to flat and polish it up. You going to flat and polish???

You painting yourself?

If you need any tips etc just ask fella... Looks good so far..!

Thanks man, and there's no chance I'm going anywhere near this when it comes to painting it. It's in safe hands though. More pictures soon.

To say I was blown away is an understatement, pictures dont really do the paintwork justice.

Not long now. :D

Yessssssssssssssss godderz cant wait to see it paint looks spot on nice colour choice :D

Personally i dont think the wheels suit it they sit perfect on the arch and look nice and wide its just not cool so feel free to sell them to me for £200 and a packet of crisps of your choice and il throw in a set of these : http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... yId_165649

hehe :lol:
