    Was sick and tired of looking at the faded mudflaps so I gave them a couple of coats of dye.

    Nice touch Graham... It makes the car look so much better instead of that tired look. I did mine about 1yr ago and it has not faded.

    Really nice mate. It's the little things that make a big difference when a car is of this kind of standard.

    Still think it needs the silver center caps for the comets tho

    Why do front-on pictures of your car always look like it's sniffing the camera? lol.

    Looking good mate. How did you get away with doing the staining in the house? Has Anne gone out?
