Nice set of mods there. Like how you painted the fog surrounds. Giving me ideas for my own car as mine are plastic grey on a Panther Black car. Was it difficult to do? I am guessing: sanding, priming, colour coats and clear coats? Any steps I missed?

So yesterday was fun. For people who not see it in other chat room. Locking system on bonnet failed as was doing 60 and bonnet flew up. Pooed myself. Friends friend is stripping a focus same colour so happy says. Just waiting for auto glass now. Wings with my st wing grills are on. And also found a cool looking tdci badge so thought what the hell, after all she is a tdci. And the badge is black and silver instead of red.

And possible getting half leathers Hmmm

Bonnet coming up looks savage. Any idea why the lock mechanism failed? Could have ended a lot worse so good to see it's all fixed.
