Yeah, that sounds fair!

As many will know I've been busy bringing the coupe back up to showroom condition, so it had a full respray at Sandy Wallace of knockentiber then left for a month for the respray to fully cure then booked in for a full machine polish and ceramic coating at KW Detailing along with the wheels stripped and powder coated in anthracite grey at Stiggy motorsport in kilmarnock, can't recommend these companys enough, there attention to detail is unreal. The paint looks flawless and the wheels are better than new !

They look good as they are IMO. I wouldn't bother with the tint!

Braver man than me, I wouldn't take mine for a swimming lesson...

Drilled holes for air to pass through the Bumper for the oil cooler.

Test fitted front and back bumpers all looks well. Made a mesh grill for the center front bumper section.

Quick drive out this morning then it was time to get it ready for winter. Good clean, polish then a couple of coats of dodo juice orange crush wax. Hopefully it will stop to much dirt getting stuck to it in the coming months.
