    This is just after changing all the dash globes too new 1's and now you can see it isn't dull at all !! the photo is a bit exaggerated but its still a nice green like that though!!

    yeah ive heard it was easy, gave it a shot and its a bitch! i might just take it to the panel beaters and throw them the keys and say, knock yourself out, seems like such a bitch!

    so wax an grease remover was the best?
