Brilliant - such a cool car. It looks fantastic outside - I can't wait to see this. I remember first time I met you at Spa in 2011 you told me about how you were rollering the paint onto the car. I thought you were a bit mad. Or a genius :-) Looking at the (nearly) finished product and the epic detail on this car, it's definitely a work of genius.

Well done Chris :-)

Almost there Chris. This is the car I'm most looking forward to see at CLM!

Do you still have the German MOT to come? Can that be quite tough?

Thanks Neil.....Yes TÜV is tough, but in my experience no more so than the MOT. Some of the young TÜV kids are abit keen, but I know afew of the old school who are more sympathic.

Tonights tweak was to add retaining tabs on the Headlight rims. I didn't want to fit them, but I just couldn't get the rim to fit well onto the Fibreglass lip.....but now they are fitted, I quite like the detail :)
