Righto, deffo agree Sean. Going to pop by a local suppliers this week and look at some more paint samples.
also while i had a bit of time today i maganed to make a start with the rear end damage. Knocked the boot open, and straightened the rear panel although i need to get another crash bar.
no before pic unfortunately but its more or less straight now (the bump had bent and twisted the rear panel and pin that meets the boot lock)
boot shuts and opens
and the bumper i will be using this year, offered back on
i've another tailgate sitting in the garage, waiting to remove the glass then will start prep and possibly smooth the boot lock and wiper hole.

yeah took a slight bump, but will all be sorted for the show season
I know i didnt publicise it very well Nathan mentioned it on Facebook but didnt put it on here, happened in december while on holiday Learnt a lesson though .. no matter how small an accident always get the police involved .. it was a middle aged woman in a renault laguna estate who hit me at junction 9 on the M40.
she was obviously at fault.
I took photo's, reg, names and all details of people involved, carried on to our holiday, got back 4 days later to find out all of the details she supplied were false .. even the reg number of the car doesnt add up police were informed but nothing has come of it.
So im left out of pocket and sick of having a damaged car i'll sort it myself

Bit of a fucker that but at least its not a huge amount of damage.
Would be good to see a large ROLLHARD window sticker on the front screen.

jesus christ didn't know about the accident damage.
the cheek of some people i hope if you ever see her/the car around you exchange a few choice words with her.
i've had a few accidents before and never had the police out as i've never thought they would give false details. makes you think.

Danny those tester of paint you have, any chance you have something black you can put the ford graphite grey against and take a pic??? Just i think thats about the colour i want my wheels painting. Atleast i can then get them booked in and get them done and get my center caps on and refit the twists. Lol

Ben, your gonna hate me I've actually thrown the testers now it's a very nice colour looks dark at night but lights up with a gold tint in the sun light. If you want to see it against black/your car we've still got a couple of sets of wheels painted ford graphite your welcome to offer them up?
