i started to sort the rust out to day i done the boot and the rear quarter i haven't sprayed the colour on yet as it was to breezy but i put primer on and will be spraying soon




i have also started to get the boot lock ready for spraying


i have used filler to fill the holes

more updates tomorrow when the boot lock gets painted if everything goes according to plan.

car would look so much better with standard rear lights and gm mudflaps in my opinion dont mind the angel eyes but the lexus lights aren't to my taste to be honest and looks better without the bonnet bra, other than that looks a decent base

like the boot lock, but not the stickers, still think the car would look so much better with standard lights on

I agree that they look good blue but personally i'd rather they were more discrete and stand out less than they do
