    So, ive got my bodywork and subframe back and im going to be fitting it all back together after the weekend, heres a little something to look at whilst its all being refitted ... i'll post details etc with the final pic once its all done. I'm sooooooo glad i sent the bodywork away to be sprayed, i would never have got it anywhere to close to this myself with a rattle can and it was done at a decent price .... enjoy !

    Ta guys. Daz, aiming for a bit of a modern take on teh old school blade but keeping its retro feel ... Hopefully it will look good, it looks good in my head anyway haha. Had an idea which direction i wanted to go but nothing set in stone so we will see how it turns out in a few days, its my first attempt though so anything could happen !

    Leeob, i took it to RPM racepaint in leyland. Had the tank, front mudguard, tail, headlight surround and two belly pan halves done for 500 notes (tank needed gravel rash and dent repair and tail needed a few bits filling also)

    Just following on from my little question in the garage part of the site, ive cut, rotated and re-welded my link pipe. Got a nice angle on the exhaust now and decided to wrap the link pipe for various reasons. heres the exhaust done ...

    certainly is mate, really nice (though obviously a generic can made from readily available parts)
