Ok
So this is just gun finish. Yet to be polished.

Apologies, these are screen shots from a video which I can’t upload. On TM

Hi Lee

Looks great, what a lovely deep colour, what is it called?

Mine is BMW Avus blue, but yours looks much deeper

looks great Lee - and will be even better when its had a buff and polish thumbs

Will you opt for PPF on the front for the inevitable stone chips.....?

Thanks, yeah it’s BMW Mauritius Blue.

My friend in the village has just bought an early S1 in Avus. Great colour.

Thx yeah, I’ll be amazing when nibbled back and polished

I’ll go for full front PPF plus running boards and faces of rear arches.

There are so many ill fitting panejj on a in these cars it’s going to get marked up pretty quick I’m sure. So hard to keep these Aeros mint

Fun continues.

Good day today.

Fitted the new blue piping and some rear lights.

All the brackets to support the running boards and refitted the silencers.

One worry was the boot lock and it’s troublesome spring, trying to get that loaded can be an issue.

- coming along nicely Lee thumbs

I remember having fun with the rear boot lock too swear

I was concerned that if it failed, access to the boot would be 'interesting'......

Yeah. Worth noting while you’ve got your head around it, where you might need to drill a hole to open the boot
