Age's work is shit hot. Probably the only person I'd ever trust to do bodywork round here.

I'm sure you'll be over the moon with it.

Picker her up Friday night from the bodyshop
It's gunna be pic overload city, sorry guys!
This is literally straight out the bodyshop, so it's still covered in dust...

















Photos are awful - I really cant do night time car park shots
SO happy with them, turnarounds been immense and everythings just perfect. He's replaced everything so it all sits right too And even polished my headlights
After a polish, my bonnet and roof look horrendous, so many imperfections! - they'll have to be next on the list now! And if im doing those, the side skirts and bootlid may aswell be done too - Full respray then

Rightttt... I wasn't joking about a photo overload..
Saturday was detailing day! Obviously the fresh paint is mint, the rest of the car had a machine polish too at the bodyshop, but I didnt really wanna leave it all unprotected. So picked her up as you saw unwashed..

I wish id got more before and afters of the stages..but anyways
washed with megs gold class, APC in arches and iron X on my wheels.
Annoyingly after getting rid of the dirt, you can now see they're going to need a refurb.

Sonus green clay on the side skirts and round the number plate - nowhere else really needed it.

AF Tripple with a rotary on the bonnet and bootlid - Couldnt reach the roof properly so decided to leave it


tbh, the bonnet and roof both badly need a respray too and I wish Id had them done now - but they'll do for now

Then went round the whole car with Carlack68 cleaner.
Next was CG blacklight, was really looking forward to trying this, and I'm really happy with it. This was then followed by Vic's Concours Red Wax - Love how easy this is to work with. only managed one coat in the end. Will top up with two more next times its washed! Doesnt seem like its going to be very hard wearing so i might even stick some colinite 476 on till the better weather!
and the results -





And then this morning I thought I'd get a few snaps in some better light!!
I'm so in love with it - so so happy with the paint job and just ahhh
