shiney!! :D

very pleased with the result.

It was 'GB Bodyworks' in Canvey Island, Essex who carried out the work. I chose them after seeing the work on another valver he did (wag1's). thoroughly recommended! :)


loads more pics to come tomorrow i suspect :) - Paul from the bodyshop also took a load of photos of the 'during' stage, which he said he will email across, so i'll stick those up too :)



so nice to have a vaguely respectable car! haha
