Hey @Rodney Blair when you meet up with Andrew show him your 3rd Brake light decal. It would make a nice addition to his Z.

Aye Tony. Long time coming. Just need to get the wings sourced now and we are good. Need to see how to replace/remove door handle. That one is from my last one I smashed. Whoever sprayed it sprayed the door handle???? Have a wing mirror just needs a spray and a antenna grommet and that's it all done ready for a look over. Wheel alignment and away to MOT. Good day today seeing her outside lol was racing today to get it onto rubber again. b******* now lol

Home stretch now. This might help with the outer door handle.

Cheers Tony. Got them out. In classic form the one I wanted doesn't have central locking. So having to paint strip the one in the above pic and reinstall it. Not so bad. If I sanded on door I know id have made a dog's dinner of the door so least there's that lol
