Well cars been booked in for the 26th for a paint refresh, I'm really looking forward to the results bounce
Are you having it sealed so the front wings dont rust from the inner? Should come out excellent, can imagine the front bumper would have had a couple of nicks after that amount of miles!

Are you having a full respray? Looking for a place in Kent to have my Z3 refreshed and this looks a proper enthusiasts place. Can I ask costs?

I'm having a windows down respray the guys at legend are true car enthusiasts & their work is of a very high standard as you can see the price I am paying is extremely reasonable for the amount of work involved smile

They are a friendly bunch so your best bet is to pop in & see Martin he will go through what options are available & give you a price smile

Don't forget to mention me if you do wink

Tbh it's life has been made easier as I've bought another escort van to run around in so will be only used for pleasure now rather than a Daily driver

Well thanks to Ben from Amd for arranging a group buy (terrible timing with the bodywork insurance tax & tyres to buy yikes) I've ordered some kw v1 coilovers they are expensive (even with the group buy) but I've been reliably informed they are the best package for a road car the wheel refurb & fuel pump will have to go on the back burner for a while though!
