thank you guys,
i was talking about trax this morning, we cant decide if we want to do trax or E38, its the same weekend, i've never been to E38 and do trax every year.... will still be able to meet at the services though as both shows are in the same direction...

paint is looking better and better every time i spend a bit of time on it, i did the prep work, my bro in law chucked the paint on and im doing the finishing work on it, i have a few bits that need taking out of it, little runs and bubbles etc but im really happy with it, more so when i see the yellow cupra come past me that lives a few mile from me as mine used to look worse, and his is bad!!!

its been a bargain hunt day again for me today!!
just managed to get this FMIC kit nearly half price

happy days
also im getting a bit anoyed with my tip, it keeps poppin off...so after a chat with the bro in law im going to make my own tip, more to come but i've ordered 95% of what i need and spent less that £30, just need a few little alloy tubes to make the little connecter pipes... cant wait now as i hope to have it all finished and fitted at the same time along with a set of springs...
so... thats a respray, a custom TIP, a FMIC KIT AND a shead load of carbon wrap for LESS than the cheapest respray i was quoted....HAPPY DAYS

i just though that i would do a full update on the respray just to close it off
i managed to get a huge discount on the paint etc, i bought signal yellow but was sent some thing like sulphate yellow, we didnt know what it was going to look like untill it was on the car and i think its a good colour my self, when i boutgh iy i asked the guy for it to be as close to the gloss yellow MG used
here is a before and after pic, the middle pics are on page 6...
