Very very clean, looks like a great example!

What are you using to clean the arch liners?

On the rears just an all purpose cleaner followed by stain and water repellent spray

Found the original dealer set so had some new ones made up......



Had a play around with the spare wheel, flatted with 2000 then used school concept s2 on a medium pad to bring it back....

Fantastic work here on your pride and joy  :congrats:

I am really interested to see how much more effort you will put into getting this incredible example to an almost as new condition  :happy2:

Not much happened over Christmas due to having a liver resection but have started cleaning and replacing some more parts ready for a few shows this year, picked up some new genuine side skirts and rear pads, discs.....




Also picked up a new shinemate polisher which is great for the small areas...




Bought 2 brand new wheels to replace 2 of mine that have very minor worming....can you believe that these wheels are £660 from the dealers..!!



Picked up a flex 3401 as well and gave it a go trying to find the best lighting outside
