Looks good, you put a new quater on drivers side?
Did you take door handles out? They are a fookin bastard!! Lol, so much easier on the newer ones.

Rear quater popped back out; there was chasis damage so when the car was jigged it virtually popped back out. Na havent had to change the handles thank god. Think the worst bit was feeding all the boot wires through!

Ahh cool, was going to say, 1/4s are easy on these, just spot welded on, no filler required. Is it recorded???
Looks a tidy car. Feeding the wires through isnt too hard, i use a bit of welding wire to pull them through

Needed more work than i initially thought to be honest. Car was £4600 and i think the repairs are coming in at just over £2K. But undamaged the car would be up for £10K

The exhaust is still pushed back at the moment; have a new one to go on but need to get the car up on ramp to change it.
Have been messing around with the bumper trying to get those to line up but is proving fidly. Am planning to take it all off an re-fit on the weekend.

Can't see a 55 Plate S fetching anywhere near 10k tbh let alone a recorded one...if it is recorded?
Work looks good though, glad your replaced the bumper with Aero one, needs Areo Skirts, i cant understand why it hasnt got them when its got the bumpers
Do the bits between the arch and bumper black if you can't get them to match up.
