I'm getting the front subframe, the top and bottom arms and the tie bars shot blasted then powder coated silver! Gonna look tasty! :cool:
I might respray the arms and bars yellow tho to add a bit of contrast. I'll get some yellow spax shocks too! :grin:

Ok back to my car then! 
Finally got the rear subframe off, although couldn't get the radius arms off!
Its got a lot of surfacey rust on it so i may get it shot blasted before giving it a good paint of rust preventative and waxoyl etc then spray it silver somehow to match the front one :wink:

I think i'll just try and replace that whole strip that runs along the bottom as the actual wing seems fine!
