nice one mate 8)
you don't see many people using the original style stuff, they usually go for dynamat etc.

hi people more updates been in the body shop for about 16 hours this weekend and have doen alot i think.
today i have painted the inner wings and rear inner arches, painted the engine bay and then did the backs of all the panels . this was my first time spraying and thought it turned out to be a good job. there is a few little runs but very small and not in obvious places but for a first time very impressed with myself.
see what you think
