yep my own worst enemy thats for sure but at least we are getting close.

Atleast it will be worth it in the end.

top work as always - colour is absolutely critical in a build like this, keen to see what you've chosen ( i still reckon you've gone black though) 

love the attention to detail 😎

Would be worthy of black too

[MRWEST]

Cheers team, colour will stay under wraps at least for now. Definately straight enough for black!

 

[dabuzz]

So is it black yet?

cheers man stoked i changed from the car being black last minute haha. 

I did talk to painter about black door frames and he wanted to do colour (hes painted tons of these over the years so that was his thoughts) but def possible to change later will see what looks like once its all back together.
