She has been in the garage/body shop for 3 weeks now :( and I am not ashamed to say I miss her.

I have been popping to see her and each time something has changed on her :)

She has now been fully sprayed, just needs to be flated and polished......long hard work by the looks of it, but the guy is a perfectionist and takes pride in his work. Wheels have been painted Black.

New head unit and cup holder is in place.

Front springs and suspension is all sorted.

Engine flush needs to be done and then I think she is ready to be picked up......sometime this week. :wub:

To be done before JAE .....tints and likwid art.

Oh oh, new custom made mats will be delivered this week. :wub:

She is going to look hot once finished but I really miss driving her.
