    and to show its not babied...

    haha yeah my panelbeater did a fantastic job on fixing it though! and with the polishers you're best off getting a Random Orbital polisher as with an Orbital its easy to burn through the paint and get a horrible hologram effect going I was going to buy one but i could borrow the one from work for free so i was just very careful. I get my detailing stuff from waxit they're pretty good priced and more aimed at the pros but if you know what your after much better than the stuff they sell through supercheap and they sell a really good RO polisher but i think it was around $225? good for masking those bush pinstripes!

    So a fair bit has happened, I'm currently in the process of building a killer high mount, I've got an NPC viper clutch to go in too


    I've been making a rear bar with a mate too..

    And I got some led headlights

    I managed to send the rest of the winch down to Mal Leslie and got the call that it's on it's way back early next week with a heap of gigglepin gear
