well its been a while but the car is all painted now and is back at mw performance for the let engine to be fitted
Stripping process, windows out
The little bits of tape indicate dents, i couldnt see any !!
Mid paint
out paint booth, now time to fit the kit
windows back in, kit on and ofcourse speedlines on (car not even been polished or wet sanded yet)
Brand new badges fitted along with new private plate
Back at MW Performance for there first open day, car was rushed back so hadnt been buffed or flated yet
please ignore front wheels, lol
Engine mounted an coming along nicely
On ramp at MW
Coilovers Fitted and a quick glance of the f28
Thats it for now, will obviously get more pics up in time, car needs to be flatted and polished still but will be done when its all up and running
any comments welcome

Awesome work mate, only thing that bugs me is the rear bumper not being a GSI one if its supposed to be a rep unless you prefer that bumper
Cracking work though and the paint looks lovely! Can't wait to get mine resprayed

Facelift rear is 1000x times nicer than the Gsi original, just looks dated.
This car is immense. I want first dibs if you sell.
