Dceivdu's new 5 litre!

Hard to tell from that vid, but whatever it is doesn't sound too good.

that was quite a while ago now. Since giving it a bit of a run and taking it to the mechanics twice since that vid, it seems to run a bit better but i still think rings might be gone. not 100%

Front end started.

I have started the front bar now, got sick of waiting. Only managed 1 coat in the shed before getting gassed out and running out of paint haha. So will do 2 more when i get a few more cans. when it dries i will sit the lights and grill back on to take a couple of pics with everything in place.

Here are some pics for now:

Wait.
You couldn't manage to remove two bolts and take the bumper off properly for painting?

And I thought I was lazy....

Tell me about it. They're a nightmare. I always thought genuine body kits weren't fibreglass until I got this car lol.

This is why I swore never to touch fibreglass panels again.

Even when people come to me for paid jobs working on cheap shitty fibreglass kits I refuse.

Horrible **** to work with and never ever ever fits right.

FINISHED!

Looks like you got a reasonably decent finish.

Is it just me or does the red look almost pink on the bumper compared to the bonnet?
