Finally sprayed my scuttle panel, looks much much better and only took me an hour or so :)
Gave the wipers a coat too as they had a bit of surface rust...

What kind of paint did you use? Was it just sprayed on or did you have to flat it down first? Looks very nice btw!

sanded them down, primered, gloss black, laquer. The finish is exactly how i wanted it, not too shiney and not too matt :wink:

Yer look cool , did you spray it on the car or did you take it off , if you
took it off did the panel come off easy as i may do mine ..

I took it off, torx key and 13mm socket/spanner is all you need. easy job took me 5 mins to remove at the most, re-fitting is a bit more tricky but still, only 5-10mins. :)
