....... Until I get my Baby back. Its been a torturous few months wait but oh my has it been worth it. Just waiting for the glass fairies to supply a screen that they haven't managed to crack in transit, then its off to Paintshield on Wednesday ready for me to collect Saturday!

I will post some decent pictures when I get it back, in the mean time these will have to do.

1) Full body strip and re-spray in Chameleon Blue. This was the original colour but the new paint somehow looks more green/purple than before, that said I have not seen it outside just under the strip lights but it is awesome so deep and lustrous and it still waiting its final polish.

2) Fresh powder coated wheels in Shadow Chrome, previously they were silver. I wanted matt black but having seen the chrome wheels now the right choice was made. New Goodyear rear boots as the old Toyo's were getting ona bit.

3) Painted brake callipers, not everybody's taste but they were looking a bit duff and I think it suits the car

4) Navy wilton carpets with portland grey contrast piping

5) Full hide re-trim in navy & portland grey with contrast stitching. The old interior was shades of grey, it was OK but was showing its age. The interior is just as stunning as the outside, the cows that sacrificed their lives for my interior did not give up their life for nothing![url][url]

That paint looks fantastic.

My Tam could do with a fresh coat due to the usual stone chips, micro blistering and a poor previous scratch repair. Would you be happy to recommend who did your paintwork?

Thanks

Adrian at Central did everything. The paint finish is awesome trust me, I tried to find something wrong with it and failed miserably. Its still got to have its final polish once the screen goes back in. Another pic under the lights
