Sorry dude, I wasn't clear. Did you remove the rear boot handle? If so, how etc!? :happy2:
cuprajake:
Sorry.
Yeah boot panel off. Undo the bolts n plug.
Then remove handle.
It has a rod through it with a spring. Push that out and then split the chrome.
Then prime n paint.

Thanks buddy, much appreciated!

Give the car a good clean inside and out today, winter months really do take there toll on cars,
Once the air is fitted I'm planning on hitting the car hard.
The few chips it does have, keep getting blobbed in and built up with 2k paint, once they are proud they will be denibbed and then polished to become invisible,
This time as part of the polishing procees I'm using a new product,
It was introduced to us via 3m while we were polishing this

3m 6000 trizact, there a polishing abrasive impregnated disc, they have the 3000 too we have used that for a long time, then the rep brought these in...the difference is immense. They cut so fine it makes polishing a breeze they also take out 95% of all marks.
So the plan is once the cars been chemically stripped, a good clay followed by tar and glue under all the arches and sill, ill mask the car then hit it with a few new discs to really get the best possible finish.
