Was hoping no one would notice those. they were put on by a previous owner. I keep meaning to take them off actually.

Thanks for all the comments guys.

Looks fantastic mate. Can I ask where you got those short plates from, because I fancy some for my Escort Cossie?

Thanks all.

TrevCos I got them from a plate shop in Sheffield, forgot the name, although im sure any decent plate shop can do them. There just standard size lettering and spacing cut down with 11mm border, so totally legal.

Thanks.

Out of interest, does anyone know what the little yellow markings are on the parts underneath. Most of the major parts seem to have a yellow dash on them. They were already on when I bought it.

Are these some sort of factory quality control markings?

Thanks guys.

Yeah it does take some time to keep on top of it if im honest, although I do use it as often as i can. Saying that, ive probably spent about as much time cleaning it as i have driving, but i suppose thats half the fun of owning it. Well, for me anyway.

Thanks for the comments.

Trying to find a decent local-ish powder coater and chroming company now. Anyone know of any good ones in the south yorkshire area?
