Wow! Looks absolutely fantastic.

She certainly does mate.

Cheers !

Looks fantastic!
It's also good to see a company putting the seam strips on after a coat of paint, no nasty surprises in 6 months.

Thanks mate,

These guys are real professionals, they've done a cracking job thus far !

Update,

Picked up a few more things from the powder coaters today, here's a few pictures.

Rear subframe -



Various other bits -











I also picked a few new parts from Minispares so I can start building up the subframes -



Decided to build the pedal box back up -







We have been down to the garage for the last time today, as the Mini will be coming home next week !

I can't wait, here's the doors and what not being painted today -



He let those dry for a while and then I went in the booth to get some close ups -









And the roof is now black, there's white filler dust over the whole car at the moment so not the best picture. Also if you look inside the car you'll see the mirrors and the other bits have also been painted -



And I took a shot of inside the wing -



Looks fantastic and should ensure our hard work lasts for a long, long time. I'll also be fitting inner arch liners for added protection !
