I covered the sills in matte vinyl and then added the silver decal thing ...to try and protect the paint looks good I think and very cheap to do

It's getting a bit sad now ....I ordered very nut, bolt, washer, clip from porsche to complete the doors the old ones were not shinney enough......I actually cleaned inside the doors :( ....ordered new watersheders they arrive tomorrow,

I am hoping to get to Hatton and the central monthly meet :D , fingers crossed the car will be on the road in 7-10 days :D
but i will not use it until it is finished cosmeticly....I have decided i do not like the wheel colour so these are being re-done and the paint on the dash does not go with the Pasha so I am changing that.
lots of little jobs like windscreen wipers, brake nipples etc to be done, I am having a few days off work to complete it :D

the suspension and engine re-plating will be later in the year :(

paul Champagne came up with a great way of covering the doorcards, I was a bit concerned because all the other recovers I have seen do not look "factory" they are a very hard item to get right.......how its done will be a closely guarded secret .......except for you of course Lindsay :D ...
I do have an agreed value for the car...just about covers the cost of the seats :lol:
