Cheers guys, bit annoyed today though,
Luckily as i dropped the car off at the painters today, i noticed someone has driven along the front of my car, put a scuff along the front bumper so i was not happy!
I know as its being painted it doesnt really matter, but its the fact noone left anything to say they hit it or anything, just abit rude.
Nevermind more pics to update the change soon  :happy2:

Dont know whats happened to all my pics but here is how it stood before the changes,




Well with ideas in my head, the paint needed redoing as it wasnt the mintest, with stone chips and stuff so off to the painters it went,









2 days later and...



I had the red front grill trim done gloss black as it would go with my wheels.





Wheels then got taken off to be redone, and wing mirror casings taken off due to forgetting to tell the painter to do them also [:D] ha!



So here was the wheels progress...





While the centres went off to the powdercoaters i started on the outers,







Outers were stripped of paint, then sent off to be polished, at which point i got a little present [;)]



It went straight to the powdercoaters and the next day i got all these back...



All was back so had to rebuild on the thursday before Early Edition due to the air being fitted on the friday!



I didnt get no pics whilst being built other than...



as i was busy changing everything all day and running around getting tyres put on, parts and little other bits.

Then bang wheels on, no leaks in the air setup and we have...





The saturday it was taken to Meguiars to be detailed before Early Edition...





Then the sunday of Early Edition came,









Then the monday just outside my house [:)]





Hope you all liked the car if you saw it, and hopefully more updates before Players Classic, DC and Prept,

Cheers

Going to sound like your Dad hear, but why would you put stickers on your front windscreen.  :chicken:
