    cheers chap! speant quite a few days finessing the paintwork ( stone chips and scratches ) but its payed off!




    Tell me about it....I was having a close look at my car yesterday and noticed that it has thousands of minor scratches and paint defects - time to get the PC out and get polishing!

  • just take it one panel at a time mate... dont rush it and perfection will ensue!


    if anything requires paint/touch up get that done first as after it will polish down...rather than polishing ...painting..and then re-finishing.


    if you need any tips pm me.

  • cheers steve!!! im thinking of doing a picture write-up of how to clean and gleam our 8's... i wont go into scratch correction though, just a run down of wash technique and waxing / sealing the paint. :)


    If anyones free next tuesday ill be down at ashby folville for the pistonheads meet. We had 3 8 series turn up last month! :cool::cool::cool:

  • Very nice :top:, how about some interior shots? and would also welcome the write up, my car needs a thorough clean so would like to get it right.

  • Lovely car and some nice shots (the 8 is a nightmare to photograph well for some reason I've yet to understand).


    Could you please put your wheels on the right way around though......;-)

  • thanks for the comments guys!


    was browsing PH classifieds last week (as per!!) and noticed Monaro VXR's are dropping like flies...i then realised its another car on my "list"...
    so testing the water really i put her up on PH...


    i dont know wether i want to sell it but if someone wants it and will look after her then so be it...


    Yep...going to sort the wheels out this weekend....think they were put back wrong after the refurb! :hmmmm:
