He hasnt quite finished yet and wants to redo the roof, but im basically very happy with the outcome.For those interested, have negotiated a club discount.

These pics were just snapped with the tablet. Will try and get better ones over the weekend

Not easy to see. He needs to finish the wing, end of the sideskirts, under front and rear bar and redo roof.

Still white. He is going to do the door sills Tuesday. Inside boot/bonnet wouldbe extra.

Should I start a group buy? I think he can do work in Sydney as well

I'd be up for that if in Sydney. Is there a wide range of colors or?

Yep, heaps of colours. Find a picture of the colour you'd like and he'll match it (thats what I did). Material guaranteed for 5-7 years. Take care of it and it will probably last longer.

As to joins, he avoided the one on the roof by doing the carbon fibre. Really like the effect actually (was unsure when he suggested it over the phone). Ive learned from this the more you remove, the better the job.I removed taillights, indicators, aerial. I would now also remove most of front and rear bar bolts so that can easily be slid out to wrap. Locks in door handle would have been good to remove as well (oh and wing)

I have too many dents and roof rust. Because of the bodywork, I think it will work out cheaper for me to respray while at it.. :(

That price is definitely the number we like.

We also need to sort the bodywork out, remove the dents, repair that fukuta rear window rust, and fix the front left guard.
