parthiban It is looking very nice - why does it need a full respray, looks pretty decent in the pics?

Because Chris is a perfectionist :lol: You've seen pictures of that turbo housing he polished up for me - he thought that was a bad job!!

It's not a nail, it's still in amazing condition mate, the paint work looks immaculate in the pictures. The exhaust, and the rear lights all go in well with the paint work.

Just an observation, have you thought about knocking that small extra lip out that sits between the exhaust cutout and the right hand side outer lip? It looks a little odd from here but I guess the exhaust might not be big enough to fill the enlarged gap.

Its actually part of the shape mate, if you look at the bigger pic of it you'll see that its carried across the back of the skirt, I was tempted to paint that section black like P.Lindblom and steviewevie did. :biggrin:

Yeah I know it's part of that recessed bit that's the other side of the exhaust and extends across to the left hand side. I just think that with that much of it left on the right after the cut out for the exhaust it looks a bit lonely! It would look normal if it was one continuous strip without the exhaust hole.

CF wrap it :lol:

I see what you mean, I had never actually noticed that little bit there before now! D*mn you, that's the first thing I look at now! :laugh:

I think you're right though, not necessarily the size of the exhaust but it might make the cut out look too big.
