Hey All,wavey

Well with all the work basically now done on her, shes just looking for the final stage to get her to where i want her to be (for now anyway!)nuts

Just waiting on a couple of quotes but one guy in particular who has a lot of experiance at a well known coachworks who used to repair TVRs for the factory so lots of fibre glass experiance. Also the same place who painted the Ultima!

Anyway, im going to do the whole car again but wanted to see if anyone advises any parts to change. i was going to put new mirrors on as the ones on there are crazed and ones cracked at the end, but any 'mods' any one can think of?

And before anyone says it, nono NO SPOILER!!!!!! hehe

Fingers crossed on the quote!!!! thumbup

Almost....How about a camoflaged mullet, then i could have the looks and appeal of a mullet off cruiser and the added bonus of being able to spend all my pocket money on a perm and keep it in one piece ready for the golf course like i could in a chim...

I could be on to something here...!!! scratchchin

I've I was ever to do a body mod in on the 400SE it would be a fibreglass mullet cover.
you could even have it coming forward to meet the rear of the seats with 2 bulges.

must be the only advantage of having the top up or having a mullet, you don't get that pram look.

I re-sprayed my car a few weeks ago saving a loads of cash in the process. Once the car is fitted up I'll post a few pics. The only thing I didn't paint was he engine bay -I'll get round to that next year.

To be fair, get it professionally detailed, you could get this done for around £200-£500, means no swirls, colour will be twice as good smile
