The car is booked into the garage for next week....
Paint Outrageous Finishes - Neptune Blue Flake over Black for the Engine Lid, Rocker Cover and Heat Shield (just hoping it won't be OTT) :blink:
Fill & paint holes in the bonnet where the number plate was removed
Paint new wing mirrors and attach - has indicators built in - cool
Remove fog lights, move DRLs and mesh over any messy gaps
Interior -Tidy up the hole below the stereo where Boossts dragon used to be (it is moving to the new Boosst)
So all this should be done for JAE if all goes well...
Can't wait! :biggrin:

She's still in the garage and should be finished by Tuesday.
The fog lights have already gone and the DRLs have moved in line with the black bar across the front of the radiator - it changes the look of the car at the front more than I expected - really pleased with that. :thumbup:
Painting happening today so that will be a big change and have my fingers crossed that it will look good.
Rocker cover, heat shield and engine lid and mirrors are already off the car and prep'd sitting waiting.
The main thing that will still look scruffy is the spoiler which is going to have to wait until winter.
ad:Will post some photos before Jae

Do come along and say Hi.
The MR2 is such fun to drive, I recommend it - although mine isn't exactly standard!

Looking forward to seeing this, the blue will be great I reckon

You were cutting this fine with timing
Hope you don't get any delays from your body shop...
Should look cracking when it is finished

Went down to the garage today to check up on her - still on track to be finished tomorrow :thumbup: - just in time for JAE (yes I was cutting it fine!)
The guy who does the paintwork was covered head to foot in fine sparkly blue :lol:
Six coats of "neptune blue flake" later, the rocker cover looks like this :biggrin:

They will put it all back together tomorrow, but I probably won't have time before the weekend to get any more photos of it uploaded so you'll have to come to see it finished at JAE!! See you there
