Thanks Harry

It's a lot of work but as you can see from the last pic it's a team effort :drunks:

Still a long way to go, but this is more or less what I want it to look like in the end.

Looking gooooooood!

I see you've been inspired by the same car as me; that whole colour combination just works and really stands out. Looking forward to seeing the finished result. Keep it up
