Thanks chaps. It's all down to Rick's hard work, really really pleased with the standard of the job.

Had a slight issue picking it up earlier...



Nice shoes Rick...




The water came pretty much all the way up to the car...

Yes. It's Bentley Versuvian Grey. Doesn't have much metal flake in it so it's quite subtle. The pictures don't show how nice it is in the flesh.

I fooking hate polishing cars!

I find that my wife rarely ventures to the garage. So if I'm working on the car, I don't get nagged. Best of both worlds.

Can honestly say the pictures don't do this car justice, the colour is lovely, with dashings of dsn billet Ali, this will be a cracking car, guaranteed

This is what worries me about having a car painted nicely.

Get some masking tape over all the edges, also whenever you go near it with any tools get masking tape around the area.
