That is actually amazing. Brilliant pics there, Cav looking extremely mint :D
I also love that rear tailgate sticker, C20XE inside, i can see where that idea came from :)

Looks good to me, and budget price is a bonus.

In these times when money is tight, it's nice to find cheap and chearful, without being cheap and nasty. :)

Agreed. You'd be surprised what you can buy with a quid in terms of car polish. I bought this stuff from InExcess, it's branded CarPride, £1.00, a small tub of liquid wax, smells like coconut milk, and it does a wonderful job on the painwork. Water beads really big after a rainfall. Bought it about a year ago, still got some left. Does do a good job, i will get some pics up when i can.

how longs the bumper stuff last?

i always used the auto glym silicon spray stuff for shows and just bumper gel for day to day use but that looks to give good finish...

also does the bumper stuff run when it rains? hate it when the silicon lashes down the doors :(
