I think I’m finally finished with the paintwork now. So this week I’ve first primed then painted 9 separate wheel arch pieces, 8 mirror pieces (2 different colours), a rear bumper, a rear diffuser and a rear tow eye cover (2 different colours). At least the weather has been lovely so I haven’t had to get the heat lamps out to dry anything, it’s all been air dried.

These are the front wing arches and the front bumper arch sections which I welded up yesterday. I’d like to get it all fitted tomorrow but I have to work unfortunately.

Been at work all day but I just had to get the front arches on to see how they look. Excuse the poor photos, it was getting dark.

Cheers guys. I'd say I'm 95% happy with the fitment of the arches after the adjustments but the 5% is just me being OCD :)

The side skirts should tie it all together nicely. They're next on my list of things to do but as normal it's not as straight forward a job as it would seem. :roll:

Fabulous work Stu! Full credit to you my friend!

Do you have an image of where the rear arch feeds into the rear bumper matey and whether there is a section that goes onto the rear bumper? Well done indeed!!
