Fab weather today so finally fitted the tonneau and got out for a drive, after I had washed her of course

Must be wonderful to stand back and think "I did that"! That paintwork is stunning

 

[Grumps]

Shadow chrome?

So wish I'd gone down that route instead of hgv driving. Like you Gaz, computer whizz but you love being in the Zed shed.

Thanks very much, Gaz, you hit the nail on the head, I might not have the money to buy a super car but I can make something that turns almost as many heads

Thanks pal, me too, its more of what I had in mind, I think it will look pretty good once the polished studs are in along with the BMW badge and black chrome wheel nut covers.
All 80 of the titanium bolts need to be refurbed as they look a mess with old paint on them, they are currently in soak in thinners and will be polished next week.

Big job mate but it'll be well worth it.

 

[Althulas]

Going to look so sweet.

A closer look, maybe I should have done them in full gloss lacquer
