My arches are cakked in Bilt Hmaber UB and S50 in the seams. Then mask the outer paintwork up and soft edge the arches. I used 3m softedge. And spray the arch lip. The inner bit is soaked with UB.

Finally got it finished for now. Interior back in and all the panels bolted up.

Just got to decide what colour I want to get the wheels done. Any suggestions welcome ;)

You can't see it very well, but as I have debadged the Prelude badge I thought a little badge on each wing mirror for the uneducated was in order :)

Made them dude. They are just stencilled in a slightly different shade.

I have the file I made the stencils from if you want it. Shouldn't think it would be an issue for you to get a slightly different shade of paint :)

Been out this evening with the camera and got some pics of the car while I was out.

A few "arty" HDR pics for those who like that sort of thing :)
