custom front and rear bumpers are nearly complete. All of the extra paint I needed has now arrived on monday this week, so that means the whole car should be ready for it's final finish next week.

I'll get some more pictures at the end of the week when the bumpers are ready for paint as I should be able to get some pictures of them on the car, makes it look much more complete with the bumpers on.

We're running a bit behind where I'd hoped so we're looking at the end of August for paint finish now..... ! :(

Well we're slowly entering the final phase.

Front and rear bumpers are nearly done and will be ready to be painted by early next week. Rest of the car, bonnet, doors, rear hatch, mirrors etc are all now in black ready for the final chrome finish ! :)

Just thought I'd post some quick pics of the custom rear bumper that Ryan at Autoworx has magic'd up. Front looks awesome too, but it wasn't ready to go on the car so I promise I'll get some pics of the car looking more "back together" next week...........really taking shape now.

Not yet, I'm really hanging out for it !!

Should have some updated pics for you late this week early next, but I was going to hold of posting them and just post the final pics instead.............we'll see...........can't help myself sometimes when I see it and can't resist sharing......

I'll post back something as soon as I have another big step to share. I'm told painting starts today, but it has to be painted with a 1mm tip which is very small in spray painting terms..........so it takes a looooooong time to spray the car.

I'll have some virtually completed photo's this week, late this week......... trust me, I'm as keen to see it finished as you are :D

It's getting it's final coats this week and they're happy they'll get most of them done this week, but not sure it'll be totally done, so maybe 22nd 23rd it'll be finished bodywork wise with the interior back in.

I'll post as soon as I can.
