looking good

did you use a sealent or a wax once you did the 3 step megs kit

if lee doesnt want the hassel of waxing his car and making it look good id go for some collinite 476 its great for the winter 2-3 coats and your be laughing, they even coat the planes in the stuff and boats

or if you wont to bring a realy shine to a car try some victoria collectors

but dont get to much into buffing its cost an arm and legs trust me lol

Ok thanks for all the comments ,time for an update
Left the windows to go off over night in the garage ,picked up the car and made use of the sunny day


Took all the duct tape and covers off ,now it was time to do the borders and finish the sealer.Masked off the windows and body and left a 1" border to go satin black ,scotched this up and then masked off the border to seal around the windows.







Once the sealer was in and smoothed the border was unmasked so it could go satin black.




Next was to sort out the pedals


This brought us to the floor which was battered ,deicided to fabricate some ally chequer plate to neaten things up.







Plate has a nice cut out in it to show the floor number
Next job was to black the 500 fin,following the car a lot i thought it needed doing as it never looked finished to me in colour ,lee is still undeicided on this so we will let him think about it




More soon

Nice work but please put the fin right! The black bits on the fin and bumper inserts were painted in one colour for a reason!!!! Here's that reason...

Nope. Its a 3 colour car already! Adding black is not a good look for me. It also makes the spolier look smaller... which I don't like. Love the look of it all orange.

Well overridden Martooon. Orange again please chaps

Just asked them to paint the Chequer floor black as well. I know it may scratch up after a while, but I think it will look alot better
