Yeah the inside is priority atm, once I have everything here I can makea start on cuttin all the brackets off inside/smoothing them and then spraying everything, rear, boot floor, roof depending on how bad it is and quite possible the inside of front doors, then I'll fit everything in one go the sunroof will be coming out soon aswell in favour of a FG blank, obviously a bit thicker than the door cards though.

Cards look good, are the rear ones pretty flexable? They will need to be, as its not a flat surface to bond/screw them onto, its quite a curve really.

Yeah fibreglass is very flexable and they are about 2mm thick so they will be easily manipulated

Yeah it will no doubt shatter them if I were you I would either bond them on or use velcro, I'm bonding mine on I think as there's nothing behind there you need access to apart from the wiring but you could unplug that at the rear lights and pull it through.

No real progress apart from the radio blank is in, the glove box blank is in and secured by velcro so I can take it off if and when I need to. The badges never turned up from 106parts so I'm waiting to get money back so I can order again. Dad is visiting tomorow and bringing the manual window set up and manual mirrors, interior mirror base plates, door handle surrounds and door pockets will then be sent off for flocking. So much to do but I haven't been arsed to do anything lately I'll have to get cracking.

Amazingly bad picture but it was going dark I'll get a better one tommorow in the light. You can't see the glove box blank properly but you can see the reflection of the floor mat in it

Velcro at the minute, but that may be changed as it juts out a bit too much for my liking, I may just bond it on.

A little update, a few new parts.
I've filled all the little holes in the door pockets, I just need to sand them tommorow. They will be ready for flocking then.
Manual window setup, although I need to buy winders as they had allready gone.
Manual mirrors minus the interior base plates not fussed though as I'll use the blank ones of the electric set up and adjust them with my fingers if need be, will look far better blank and flocked anyway. I'll give them a good clean and spray the cases to match the car before hand.
Another shit pic, I blame my phone camera...
Badges have been ordered again, hopefully they will turn up this time. Door pockets, mirror base plates and door handle surrounds will be sent for flocking on Monday.
