  • Shes back in at last sooo happy with how she looks :) hope this pleases a few people lol

  • i know what you mean with the filler mate i do it myself, i tend to do it more when weather is a bit cold so it goes off quicker but i hate it when your just in the middle of a skim and it sets it pis

  • Can't wait to see it once you've got it all finished, paint job looks brilliant you've certainly got skills, are you bringing it to the Polo Show

cheers buddy don't think its worth missing work coz your too tired tho lol.

do you know i realy wish i had the place to spray coz i would love to do some work for other people.

looks awsome mate,

but please why the cherry bomb ( it is a cherry bomb right?)

i guess as your fully smoothing it will be hidden anyway?

whats wrong with a cherry bomb?

i'm not hiding it i wanted to get another to go on the other side and have a twin system i just like the tips on em and the sound they make

i wouldn't mind de cating it but dunno yet i'll see what i can do

theres nothing wrong with a cherry bomb i have on on my 6n and sounds good why dont some people like cherry bombs? lol

i sprayed my car in my garage. i got 3L of paint and had to buy another 1L for bumpers but only cost me ything just short of about £200 thats with all the materials needed.

i have thought about setting up but its finding the right place and cost and laws ect seems easy but not so easy i possibly will in the future just need time to plan things.

got a full week off work yey! let work commence on the polo

yeah i had it running ages ago. I'm just having problems finding a set of carbs that don't piss fuel everywhere. The last set i tried for from a cb750 honda. i replaced every servicable part in them and the only bit you couldn't change was fucked. Once I get my carbs it'll be ready to rock.

oh baby!! looks lush!

Cant believe I've only just stumbled across this. In awe of just how good it looks.

When I read that you were considering starting up a business, my ears pricked up.

It would be such a good idea, You would easily get a years worth of customers and recomendations just from this website.

You should seriously consider it! (So I can get a respray and body work!)

Keep up the amazing work mate

solid work fella!
