That cardboard mounts never gonna hold up ! Nice work, cant wait to hear that un

yes thats lovely, spot on there mate

No im not a member Noge, didnt know that you could still get them, cheers for that.

My bumper rubbers are very old n tired, seen this on Ebay, im thinking i can shape and bond onto the bumpers, just putting it out there, but i think itd work a treat, i know they wont be 100% the same size but nice that they could be new and not funked https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rubber-Strip-10mm-Thick-x-5m-Long-Black-General-Purpose-Solid-Neoprene-Rubber/352174485432?hash=item51ff3c2fb8:g:MakAAOSwlPFeQU-2

If there that bad you can get stick on chrome trim, from Halfords, i had the same issue, the stick on stuff works really well an wont cause rust traps

Yes get the trim on , it will make such a difference when you do

Yes i always preferred my old suction Devlibiss gun, to the gravity ones, once youve tickled it and set it up you can really throw the paint on, i always used to mix the paint to thick, once i added 10-20% thinners the paint would flow lovely, i have got really cheeky before now and sprayed a final coat of nearly all thinners, dangerous but did look like glass, off the gun. My old Mini was the last car i painted .....

yes lovely standard mk3

What a shame, great you managed to get it , lovely model, spec and color, make it look mint mate
