The old heap was registered ten years ago today so at the weekend it was treated to some fairy liquid. It works really when when you borrow someone who knows a thing or two.
Cue flamesuit
Which is where these two lads come in:
I can't be bothered to do much writing now (Imageshack has been playing up) so will let the pics speak for themselves 
This pic doesn't show the scratches amazingly well, but it gives an idea.
A new sticker for the collection 
Now it's pretty much just reflection shots
Then I stuck a new numberplate light lens thing in as the old one was literally yellow and mouldy. About £2.50 from Vaux themselves, bargain
Sunday's job was sorting the spoiler out with some Tiger Seal, so it went on and a whole load of masking tape with it.
Now it's stuck on rather nicely No pics yet as I've been at work all day and it rained 
So that was my weekend 
Numberwang!

Looks nice mate, mines going to a local bodyshop for a machine polish soon, full of swirl marks and tiny scratches like on yours, results are impressive there.

Cheers guys 
James - it was a Stage 2 detail, Rich's prices are on his site - http://www.refineddetail.co.uk It wasn't exactly what it says because CS members get 10% off and I had to pay some on top because of the distance involved but you can see the base cost there.

Near enough yeah.
So pleased with it though, need pics of the n/s front wing really because it came out perfect, not a mark on it now
There is the odd scratch here and there that is a bit deeper but they wouldn't come out without taking loads more lacquer off.

Portsmouth mate, reet down south.
Would cost you more than the detail and maybe even the car's value in travelling expenses tbh  He did say to me that he doesn't mind travelling as long as he can get a couple of days work out of it.
