hey ppl,

heres todays progress on me gf's little 1.2i.

i finally got the skirts sprayed and fitted and gave the whole car a really good clean.

the paint work was shocking so i decided to get out the elbow grease and the G3 and cut the whole car back by hand (no mop here).
im really pleased with the finish altho i did forget to do the roof so that'll have to wait for another day! the condition of the paint on the roof was how the whole front end was - flat!

anys, im getting the feeling that now its back on the road after the headgasket went, and that the skirts etc are all on, all it needs now are the mhw rears to be fitted (cheers mr marriott) and get the roof sorted.

what do people think? much more might ruin it

i love it, but just think the front bumper might not be quite right, so hard to tell from photos as the camera cant pick up the black
