I use to work in the prepping part in the honda factory.
Some days i would have to flat back all the pannels on one side of a car.
This was repeeted every 85 seconds and would do near to 300 cars a day.
Im glad i left with my payout at christmas.

As for meeting up on route are you going strait up on the A34 ?

If so i could meet you at the bp/little cheif just before the m40.

I could sit in front and hit some flys for you

Spend most of the weekend trying to sort the running probs out, but was able to start this...

So take one chrome plug cover thats got a chip in it..


Now i wanted to do something a lil trick here. So after using this technique on a set of wheels at the bodyshop i thought i'd use it..




So thats Arden blue background but with the chrome letters showing up... Ooooo yeah.


Its not the easiest job, so this isnt perfect but.




Put some lacquar on...




Still shiney..


Then messed up a lil and put tomuch lacquar on, but a lil air it dried of ok.






Repainted my mirrors too, bumper and trim should be painted ready for collecting on monday.

[Steve!]

Can you come and spend a week with me and my car please

[Benn]

Will cost ya.

[Grim Reaper]

i'd be careful of steve benn, im sure he would probably knock you out whilst your busy and then nick your car somehow lmao

edit - forgot to mension, im glad you went with my plug cover idea when we discussed it a while back on msn looks awesome

[Benn]

Did we? Funny i dont remember that?

[Steve!]

Thought my love would cover costs

[Grim Reaper]

Did we? Funny i dont remember that?

it was on MSN when you were contemplating LET or carbs...at the time you very much wanted carbs and wernt too keen on an LET but you did say it may well be a possability

and gosh, you have some shocking memory...i remember back when i joined mig, you were the first friend i made, and your nova was the first project i remember reading on, and you had bought some tubing to make your own roll cage and i PM'd you about where to get material and what type to use

Ok but thats got nothing to do with plug covers...

[Grim Reaper]

yes it was, read the first part, we was talking about it on msn about how you want the plug covers...and im just saying, you have terrable memory lol

[JoeyB]

Saw the car for the first time this weekend (well first time with LET fitted), lush! Lets hope you sort the boost issues this week!

PS....Benn does have a bad memory. He has forgotten that he owes me a monumental amount of Tesco cheesecake. I can't remember what for though...
