a day of sandblasting and powder coating. Powder coating went well but sand blasting not so much :(

    What do you need doing? ;) It's so easy, you just need an oven or a way of curing it, this looks quite an easy way to make your own - http://www.facebook.com/notes/electrostaticmagic/diy-powder-coating-oven/189469551090871 Our system is an electrostatic majic kit, was £109 from the kit car show about a year ago, and i think is only around £6 for 1/2kg of powder and gives a much nicer finish than areosol

Isn't flashing tape just silver duct tape?

    Flashing tape is butyl (bitumen stuff) 1-2mm thick depending on your brand with aluminium stuck on one side.
    It's like duct tape on steroids :p

    didn't even know what they were, but on of the first google image search results was this - http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?um=1&hl=en&client=firefox-a&sa=N&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=rcs&biw=1440&bih=684&tbm=isch&tbnid=HwCSGynGxidj-M:&imgrefurl=http://www.outbackautomotive.co.uk/&docid=rHUqqOgW3AyzxM&imgurl=http://www.outbackautomotive.co.uk/images/www.outbackautomotive.co.uk/thumb/th2851172679919mini%2520with%2520KC%2520covers.j...

    I'd looked on google but hadn't seen that! So it can be done... I'm just a little worried about the depth of them as they're 5.25 inches deep, so that sounds a bit much for the conventional positioning on a mini :(
