As it is getting nearer to PV, I decided to carry on and put the bumper back on. As it does not look like we are going to get the Depo's before the weekend at this rate. Front looks excellent now. I forgot to take my camera so will have to take pics tomorrow. I took the arches off again so as I can spray them gloss back in the meantime.

Started spraying the arches today in gloss black. Just a quick job to get it ready for PV as I am up against it at the moment in the time schedule.

Back arches in filler primer


Front arches

Back arches now sprayed. Hopefully i will get the van back tomorrow and will be able to clean up the inside and install the Calibra leather seats. Fit the arches and a few finishing touches like spraying the lower grille black. I don't know if i'll have time to install any stereo gear though. Hopefully i'll get the windscreen aerial installed so as I can at least play the ipod through the radio.

Why are the arches being done black if you've colour coded the bumper tops

A small bubble of sealer, which i'll get them to remove at some point.
I will be blacking the bumper top in time to match the arches.

cant wait to see this finished, i love the orange and black.

Thought about doing any colour coding in the engine bay??

Also i really like the eyebrows for some reason, gives it a meaner look and just stands out
