    So a few hours on Photoshop and I've managed to get it as close as I can to the outcome I'm hoping for... The seats are grey because I'm not getting them re-trimmed as of yet... maybe down the track later on. Mean while the VT cloth seat covers will do haha....

    That last pic looks outstanding! And usually I hate those tail lights, but with that colour it fits perfectly! Good work man.
    Is the dash and all going to stay white?

    Thanks man, Yeh I'm gonna keep it all white, and maybe do some grey highlights in there, I'll see how it goes.

    Anyway some progress pics of what I have to deal with :) I've managed to get the r/h boot channel cut out and the new to fit so I can sand blast then weld it in. I've still got abit of cutting on the L/h one so I can put in a new patch. I've also got to do the front windscreen, gonna cut the whole section out and get a new one made. And also do an area in the lower section of the r/h quarter. Slow but steady progress.

    Some more progress happening, have got the lower windscreen panel and the 2 boot patches welded in, the pillars and tail light panels welded into the quarter panels, all bogged up and have blocked the roof and quarter panels so I can prime it all in the morning. still need to do a patch on the lower rear right quarter (Under bumper). Thinking of redoing the interior bone white/cream rather that white... Also may have a toss up between Karma blue off the VE or Alto Grey haha.

    Choices choices, I'll do a photoshop maybe haha, But I'm keen on the grey.

    Grey beats the blue. I think the cream interior will look better than the white.

    Yeah defiantly cream interior. It blends in better, plus it will be easier to keep clean.

    +1 for the cream interior!
    (you should also photoshop in some tints)
