Yeah, lot of work involved there. I used a 6ft paintbrush and the bumper was in the way

Whats the strut brace you have fitted, not seen many on the v6 due to clearence issues. Is it an off the shelf one?

Nice work on the lights will look loads better

Makes my poor old rusty calipers look even worse now, must get some paint and attack them.

Like the lights, best of luck with the manis.
