Looks fine on the photos - what work are you planning?
when all is said and done - there is more said than done .

To be fair its not to bad at all really, unfortunately it has a couple of bubbles by the side marker lights on each wing and a bit on each rear wheel arch so will be getting the wings and rear arches redone to be perfect, i'll also get the wheels done black while its in, then waxoyl the whole car and fit my jw speaker led black headlights I have.
Other than that just little things, I want to remove the front bumper and fit the lower valance panels as much prefer the look.
For the future will be led lighting on all the other lights and try to source the number plate mount some of the later cars have when the bumper is removed that goes under the grill.
It will also be getting a roll cage once a suitable one is found.
So not much really haha

Are you going to get an isolated repair or the whole wing done? The issue happens to lots of Morgans.

Im going to have the whole wing done yes, as the painter says the finish will be nicer. It has a couple of chips further down by the foot plate as well so can all be done in one go

Black wheels will take a lot more looking after than chrome, so be prepared!

Hi, I like your ideas, roll cage and black wheels will look very sporty, keep the blink very low key.

Thanks must admit im not a huge fan of chrome so want rid of as much as possible eventually. Im considering the grill in satin black aswell but will leave that for a time. Appreciate its harder to clean in some cases Dave, its more just my personal taste. Cheers and look forward to getting more involved. I'll keep a little thread once I've sorted how to upload pictures into one Tom

Tom,
Maybe I am old fashioned, but I love chrome and brightwork.
A pin to clean at times though, especially chrome wheels...that are trying to go rusty on me.
