What paint and primer did you use on the grille? I got hold of round-lamped grille and lamps for my Derby yesterday and would like to freshen it up like yours.

Andy, my PLS have you got your name all over them 8-) !

Love the car though mate, absolutely stunning! I'll definitely come and have a look.

Halfords plastic primer, and Halfords plastic bumper paint.

Two coats of primer and four light coats of the bumper paint.

The pic posted on here is with only one coat of paint, its now had four coats and looks even better, i'll post more pics the weekend.

The Zeibart on the lower body panels came off ok with white spirit and tar remover, although it did take a fair bit of soaking and gentle persuasion.

The engine bay is a sh*te of a job as its on really thick, i may leave it on for now.

Finished off painting the front grill today.

Silver pinstripping a pain to mask off, although I'm very pleased with the results.
