    I've had a few PM's asking where I had the work done and how long it takes. As mentioned earlier in the thread, all of the work was done by AquaGraphix in Caerphilly.

    The work takes approximately 2 weeks depending on their workload, but the results are exceptional

    A few linkys:

    Am wondering how durable the finish is for wheels. As the price for finishing a set of 18s doesn't seem that crazy. Very tempted.

    I know. I'm so careful usually
    Naturally it was the fault of the guy who pulled into the car park at work in front of me, made me take a wider turn, my wife was driving, there was a monkey in the tree which distracted me etc etc.
    The air turned blue!

    Wheels are in need of a refinish anyway after the last guy did a god awful job.

    It's been a great thread Steve I think we have all enjoyed watching your engine transform into something to be really proud of!

    Another interesting and well informed thread by you as always!
