Very nice indeed Bob. Des did mine as well - good job and good value.

Yes Merv - I think it was good value. I was impressed with the stripes. They all ended up at the same level and not overlaid.

Looks brilliant. Whats the hole in the drivers side front guard for? Did you taper the stripes or are they a constant width?

Regards.

Mando - The hole is a removable panel to allow access to the master cylinder and booster. Stripes are constant width.

Cheers Bob

Default Fantastic

Bob

You have certainly made good progress since your ealry Christmas present!!

Your car looks beautiful - the colour is stunning. Now for the fun part - adding shiny bits and the power plant. I look forward to seeing it in the flesh.

Well done.

Default Look's great

Bob,

Great looking paint job.

Looking at your photo's you might want to check your disc rotors orientation. The slots should taper to the rear (Discs are normally marked SL and SR). Refer DBA Australia link http://www.dba.com.au/2006/QnA/DBA_QnA_22.asp. Some of the newer slotted discs it doesn't matter but on these I believe it does to remove the dust and gases correctly.

Cheers


Tony

Mando, I don't know if you were thinking like I was. but the hole in the side is for a blinker and the hole under the guard is the brake access hole. I had to look twice.
