some bling to add, looking forward to seeing how the ganador mirrors will look. also had my front lip filled and painted. would be good to get the gutter rash on my rims sorted but will need to gather some coin for that

The mirrors look fantastic! Who painted them for you? Oh and the rest of the car is just... wow. Very nice indeed.

these are his ideas matt. one of the reasons im sure he feels he needs to differentiate his car from when you owned it is because you keep reminding him of that hahahahahahahah
mirrors look ace. what was wrong with the lip? just marks?
if you need the number of a good wheel repairer let me know pat.

im very happy with the mirrors, they came out well. i had them painted by a local guy in Bendigo who did them for cash.
the front lip was in a right mess with chips along its length. it now looks brand new!!
i had a look at the wheels last week trav, they are mostly scraped rather than chunks, on the passenger side mostly. what do you reckon it would cost per wheel, ballpark?

check out this guy Pat, http://www.coloururmags.com/ He does repairs and powdercoating, although you probably just want repairs. He was heaps cheaper than wheel solutions etc and did a good job of reparing my gutter rashed rims. From memory it was around $120 per wheel for repair and powercoating. But if you want repair & paint trav deals with the richmond based wheel place a fair bit through work as you probably already know... edit - I remember now he does do paint as well...

$110 per wheel is around what they charge us. can you get the work stickers?

Of course they're his ideas Trav. He just has excellent taste  Sorry bout the rims Pat, but I've learnt my lesson and haven't got a single scrape on my current wheels lol. Saw your car today at Ian's...the donk looks serious!!

things are coming along nicely. finally i think there is light at the end of the tunnel. when the mechanic says the same thing its got to be a positive. fitting the air filter assembly, intercooler, water pipes etc all in the same area is proving a real time consuming beach. think its just about solved now though.

Looking good Pat. I saw Ian there the other day mocking up a bracket for the cooler. A very tight little engine bay in the sw20 ey? haha
