New update:
Had to sort the back arches out im very happy with how they are now
This is how they first were shaped did not like them one bit
So ended up cutting them off and starting again
Both arches cut looking alot better
Took a quick pic of engine bay not the cleanest but
Most of body work is done now so should have it sprayed in next couple of week

Hey I just used 1 pound a tin paint in a rattle can from pound shop worked a treat no need for primer as the paint is classed as primer might need to laquer but that's about it and thank you

it will help when lowering it and if you get wider wheels otherwise the wheels will scrub and shred the tyres so it is best to but see how it goes mate
