Keeping it black but bought a Renovo full roof kit to re do it. Also getting the curbing on the alloys done when it goes in so hopefully should be mint for the Euro cruise

Going away Monday with all the Family to Scarborough for 5 days. So thought it was an ideal time to get the work done on the Zed. Would of loved to of gone but getting it right for Euro cruise was more important

Thanks Gary. Just started on the passenger side but quit for tonight. Been out there all day but it's starting to come together now.

Don't see me getting a chance of doing any today. Picking Jack up later from Uni in Crewe as he's moving back home so I'll do a bit more during the weekend as and when I can.

OK I spent all day yesterday and an hour this morning getting the interior finished. Seats, door cards and a couple of bits on the steering wheel to blend it in a bit. The bolster which was the original issue is sorted. I have enough of both colours left for any touching up I come across in the future. Happy with the results. I'm pretty sure anyone that doesn't have hands like coal shovels and the patience of a rabid dog could do a better job!
Thanks to @Antm72 for his assistance last weekend and supplying me with the first bottle. Top man. :thumbsup:

Nice Job Dave. I'm currently refurbing a set of sports seats I got from Steve @Low Rider

The seats are black and I'm colouring the inner panels beige to match my interior. Colouring black with beige is taking more coats than I was expecting but I'm getting there. They've had about 4 coats now but I'm going to do another couple at least. Then I'm doing the black bits. They're coming on well. I'll put some pics up when they're done, but it wont be this week.
