J5 Sublime really is a BRIGHT colour!!
Wait till you get it outside in the sunshine and then start polishing it... just did that with ours and after a few hours everything else had a green tinge to it when you looked away from the car! Sunglasses are needed....
Fantastic work there Matt - amazing what you can achieve when you go for it...

I was until the masking tape stuck to the black paint on the roof and scoop.
Now need to re do the black.
Had some parcels arrive today so little clips are here for fitting up.

Lots of work last few days, hence no forum updates.
Screens were fitted using the dinitrol kit from Bedford. MOT last Thursday gave me a fail list to work through, re tested Tuesday, free tax and on the road!!!!!!
Herts meet was the first outing, after daughter's birthday dinner at Nando's.

Matt, this is great news. Like others, I cannot believe just how quickly it all came together in the end. At one point it really did look like it would be stuck in the shed for ever. Full credit to you and those that helped you

You are so right about those that helped.
There has been a massive amount of help from alot of people within the MMA and outside. Advice, parts, all sorts. The forum and club has been a total lifeline getting this far.
Thanks to everyone for the assistance to date. Now the work starts getting it into a useable state and finished off.
