Alrighty then, as promised, heres a mini update....
Just been down to have a look, both door shuts have been painted, the bumpers are halfway there, the whole car is now ready for its fresh coat of paint...
Theres been a few things slowing him down, such as the 13, yes 13 layers of paint on the new bodykit!!!!
anyways here it is ready for the paint...
The shell will be done by the weekend, with all the glass in so it can be left outside, so shouldn't be long now!!!!

Is that it? LOL - Get some more pictures up
I remember those good ol' days of getting a bit of welding done on your ol' car PMSL. Please don't fit the twin lamps
Good luck with it Wes

Nice one Dave
Hopefully the bumpers will be done by 2moro, should look sweet when they go on!
You saw the crash on the way home as well then?! Looked pretty bad...

Thanks guys, the kit should be fitted 2moro, I'm not too fussed on what the inside looks like at the mo but the outside has got to be spot on for Trax...
Yes Mark thats the bum boy trying to seduce me
The crash was with a Metro and something else I think, both looked pretty smashed up...
Anyways I'm off to bed, its too early for thinking about that kinda stuff and I got a GRS to fit 2moro lol

blimey this is so fuc'n nice never new white could look this gorgious!!!!
respect, don't you ever work? I can only spent, say, 1.5 hours a day working on her
Did the front and rear arches of the S1 kit fitted niceley, read lign up well or did you have to "squeze" them to match both front and rear bumpers, finally got mine fitted still had to use some filler

I've got a feeling yours are the same as mine, theres a tiny indent on both rear arches that we couldn't get rid of, I've left mine as I didn't want it to crack if I put filler in.
As for working I work at a factory doing 4 on 4 off days/nights so it has its advantages
Cheers for the comments
