haha break it rich and ill seriously cry :p

cheers mac, mine wasn't as good condition as yours unfortunately, carbon stands out so nice on your white V :) bet youcant wait for it to be running.

Last update probably for a while, got a lot coming and a lot happening ;) but I couldn't leave its last picture on here with it covered in sanded lacquer feeling sorry for itself haha, so I gave it quick detail ready for the body shop :)

Hopefully my next update will be a nice big one with lots happening fingers crossed, not long to go for japfest 2!

It is nice but it is pretty much black on black.. Looks a hell of alot better now it's fresh lacquer and you have polished the dull parts off, yeah can't wait to have it back, only gotta wait until Saturday :-)

Another Update :)

First things first, my windscreen bothered me, it looked tired/had some chips and everytime i cleaned my car it irritated me to see the windscreen haha :/ So I bought a new one and had it fitted :p

Gutted about this going haha

Looks like no glass now :) Pleased lol.. (contain your excitement boys and girls, I know a new windscreen is ridiculously exciting!)

The only thing letting it down was the scratches on the sides, and my scuffed rear OEM splitter. I also didnt realise how many dings the car had collected, werent even noticeable when I use to polish it, its mad lol.

:wub: :wub: looks soo much better in person! awesome finish yet again rich! car is taking shape so much now :D

Yuuup just needs a good detail inside now too haha :) Your GT looks awesome now man!!

Can't beat a black car when it's mint like that!

I used to do bodywork and you get satisfaction when it turns out this good

Nice work bud what's next?

So much nicer looking at it with no scratches now :)

Next to do is indiglo dials, livesports spoiler, 98spec rear lights, fit my rays. I have a splitter to try on, and still need to fit my zisco manifold before japfest2.

After that its where I get to do the fun bit (the bit I can actually do myself) and finally do a forged build. Hopefully looking to get MeisterR's before then too :) This will be my winter plan :)
