Looks really good now and the back lights and panels look spot being a nice contrasting black but i would loose the buckets as i think they spoil the car and all the hard work.......

Dont worry Im no dead lol moved house so had no internet but all sorted now. Well after lots of blood sweat and tears its finally done (apart from wee piddly bits lol). Got it MOT'd this morning with only an advise on the headlights being tinted lol. I'll let the pics say the rest (and yeah the bonnet is fucked...wind ripped it off so its buckled, dented and scraped...will hopefully be sorted by the end of the month)

Looks just right in my eyes (apart from the headlights but each to there own) think the black bumpers work really well with the silver.

Fairplay mate! To have done all that yourself is amazing, especially given your age - I wouldn't know where to start!
