I did get an advisory on the rear o/s wheel bearing, the only thing I left alone. :roll: Though I do have one spare. :)

Nice one. Good effort of the spraying too.

I know its only a patch in repair until it propperly done but yes the epoxy mastic is the absolute shizz.
Takes ages to dry and eats 400grit paper.

Cheers guys.

So I've not had a chance to give the car a polish yet, though I did get round to claying all the old paint and showing it a bucket of water.

As well as this, I have also tweaked the tailpipes to sit in the lip better (they were rubbing), fitted the badges and cleaned up the mudflaps, though I've yet to fit those.

I still need to align the front end properly, the bonnet gap is a little off and one of the nostrils is a little wonky.
