Thanks for all your comments.
As for panels they are non genuine, fit good but be carefull of the wings sent a few back before we were happy with the fit. every thing else fits a ok.
just got her running today try to remember to get some pics cheers.

ive seen most of them cars about that you have mentioned , that flip painted 5 used to pass my house most days if its the one im thinking had a smoothed boot ?? looked mint it did and ive seen the q plate rs twice in the last week but not been close up to any of them just seen them in passing looks to me like your brother knows what hes doing 
ive had a bad experience with a bodyshop in the past so thats why i always ask to see work in the flesh
