Well its not looking good for my car being ready for PVS

The trimmers hasnt finished and wont be until late 2moro but i reackon thursday!

Most of the dash is still to be sprayed 2moro!

And got to fit it all and get install in 3 ways up and running etc etc

And in all honesty i just simply havnt got enough time left to do it

Im absolutely gutted as ive worked my nuts off for the last 3 weeks or so trying to get everything ready but i think its just not meant to be

I can only do so much physically i have been living on about 3-4 hours sleep a day for the last 2 weeks and its catching up on me big time now and i just cant go on and on otherwise i will be in hospital for PVS

I also dont wanna be so rushed and tierd that i make a big mistake that is costly or ruins everything!

Will you still be able to go, but just with not all the stuff done? I have to replace a radiator, then get my car to the bodyshop to have front arches smoothed into skirts, mesh redone at the front, mesh added round the exhaust, veccy door handles fitted and sprayed, petrol cap cover fitted apd sprayed (taken off dimma cap), get the front bumper properly reattached after the incident with the trailer, get all the bodywork generally tidied up, new bad boy bonnet fitted and sprayed, then when its out of the bodyshop its got to go to the garage to get some bushes in the gear linkage replaced tha have disintegrated, then if theres time, replace the knock sensor and the pulse sensor in the dizzy so my engine stops running in safe mode. Otherwise i will be there, just half the power i should have.

Why does the car have to be "ready for PVS"?

Just take it there as is. No-one will really care that your car isn't finished.
