Thsnks wurly, the finish on the paint is good but the panels aren't perfect, I didn't block the doors so you can see some parking dent ripples etc, but down the line I will focus on the best possible paint job I could ever do. I won't stop until it's 100% 2-3 years time though.

Modified a rear accord splitter for the bumper. Will get s wee pic up if the rain ever stops lol

That looks excellent.
There aren't many I've seen that have been fitted that well (though I should expect nothing less from you, of course!) :lol:

I've kept it all factory plastic all round man, these are high impact areas and would constantly be spraying them, the contrast is nice all the same.

Thanks wurly man haha, need to enjoy the summer in it because it's going into storage in 3 months for a approx 2 years.

Emmm I have some other life plans I'm working towards, so if I knuckle down for couple years hopefully it will all come together.
