few more coats then they can go on the car

What are you painting them with? They came out well

Not think about getting them powder coated, would last a fair bit longer than paint

cheers, im made up with it

Looks spot on mate, really like it!

I'm about to stick a thread up on my Arden Blue 1.0 too, won't be as nice as yours for a while as it's still standard at the minute

Thanks mate

Look forward to seeing the thread and progress, mines still got a long way to go yet.

done about 300 mile since changing the spring so should have all settled now
