Morning chaps
Some lowlife pikey managed to perform an extremely funny joke on my car last night. You can imagine I was in stitches when I came down to get into my Moonraker Black T350 with added white pinstripes (not straight may I add), this morning.

Passenger door and rear quarter done. Any issues with resprays/blending on this paint? Full respray perhaps?

Any experience welcome.

Cheers
Ben.

Oh dear, that's awful news. Can't work out how to post pictures so you'll have to take my word that my T350T is moonraker black!! When I bought it, car was peppered in stone chips and a few other nasties. Had front end resprayed upto windscreen and the roof panels. Perfect match, no problems. Guess it depends on the skill of your sprayer.

How much did that cost you if you don't mind me asking?

You have mail Ben. Incidentally, in addition to what I've emailed you, because of the shape of the T350, you may not have to have the front wing done, in fact that may be ill advised because it sits in the same plane as the bonnet. They may suggest the rear wing, blended at the C pillar and taillights and the door blended up the roof. But I'm not an expert at all!

Hi Enjy,

I'm really sorry to hear your bad news. Surely not outside your house??? It's enough to turn a decent person to kill these idiots shoot
I drove past a while ago and saw your T350 with some interesting sticker work all over it. Love the PH sticker on the bonnet!!!

I hope you get it all sorted soon.

Should meet up for a pint sometime. Yes, outside my house. Bit strange for that road really as normally it's quiet. The stickers have gone now, that was a Le Mans thing!
Got the car in over the road at Airport Bodyshop. Still going to cost me a few bob, little bds.
I think I've seen your beast about - very nice smile

Good to hear she's on the road to recovery bounce I'm very suprised you got hit where you live; the sleepy little village that it is. It only takes one censored'wit I suppose!!!
It would be good to meet up. Do you do the breakfast club meets at Goodwood? If so I'll give you a shout to the next one I can make for a blast up there and a bacon roll...???
