Default my s12

i recently bought a replacement rear hatch and bonnet for the s12 cos the hatch was rusted and the spoiler had been eaten by the monkeys, and the bonnet was delaminating.

unfortunatly the paint on both the new bits had oxidised very much so, and yesterday i decided it was time to t-cut.

here are some pics of my efforts

the drivers side 'before' pic


the passemgers side 'during/after' pic


both sides together


the hatch to rest of bodywork comparison


compared to the roof


the bonnet after



the roof hatch bit 1/2 done


all done on the hatch




Yay my car is all shiny!!

was gonna wash n polish the rest of the car today
but it hasnt stopped raining yet
