Thought it was time i gave the motor a bit of a going over with the polisher to see how bad the paintwork really was? The front bumper,back bumper, rear spoiler and skirts all need ripping off and respraying? :blink:

Excuse the pics as i used my little camera and most look bright/dark:cursing:

Anyway a few pic's?

it needs a lot of work to be honest mate, used my dual head polisher on it this time?

was just trying to see how bad the paintwork was as its always had a shine to it but always looked like a dull shine! If i keep it long enough it'll be having a respray when i get back into a job? :blink:

Still looks like a good job though matey and polisher seems to have worked well for the paint.

Well it comes up on the pics well anyhow, know what you mean though as mine comes up better in the pics and in good lights Smile

there is nothing better than a respray though when it's fresh out huh!!

Black is the worst too though!!
