well its not perfect, but originally i didnt want my trim to shiny as thought it would be to much, but now wish i did lol. and going to re-do my exterior handles, basically primer, lots of layers of paint, sand back till looks like a matt colour and laquer, i did this to my handle surrounds to bring them up shiny (the only things i did do proper shiny lol)

and i find standard better than aftermarket... but panel filters even better, going to get myself a courtney sport, or other branded panel filter.

fazza, not good then, bet he werent to happy

update:

passed mot, thanks to a mates dads garage for doing it with the de-cat on, my old cat was fooked and probably still wouldnt pass with that on

another good thing was that the mot tester said the underneath of my car was very tidy and solid

well as im spraying my mumper top to match in with the rest, i thought i'd post some progress pics....

plastic sanded and primered with filler primer and grey primer

and colour which i just finished (think 5 coats should do it)

just hope it dont go shinier than the skirts etc lol

didnt want it to shiny when i did the other stuff, but now wish i did, duno if mopping them will bring them up better?

cheers, aaron
