There was a small selection in the boot that he has cut out and repaired. The bit he has replaced is slso where the bumper goes. I hope he hasnt forgotten the hole for where the bimper mounts too.

No he wants to paint as minimum as possible. The car was only painted about 3/4 years ok.Its polished all the time so hopefully the bits that will need painting will match.

Thanks matey.It just want the old cow to be right lol.I think if the arches were done properly in the first place the car wouldnt be back in the bodyshop.
Ive always tried my best to look after my cars that ive had in the past and im defo looking after this one cause its a cossie and there are way to many getting broke for parts.

Its a car at the end of the day and they were built to be driven.There are a few old cars where I live that still get used.
It would be a nightmare if the car wad minty mint.i would be scared to use it.

That stuff is Dinitrol ML cavity wax if I'm not mistaken, you can buy it in aerosol or in a shutz style can for applying with an air line - it's what I'm using on mine and I think it's pretty amazing stuff.
Try
http://www.frost.co.uk/
That's where I got mine from including the shutz gun.
