Looking good mate.

What Auto Finesse products did you get?


Got some finale, took advantage of their mega deal on drying towels (2 for £9!), a sticker and an air freshener...... that christmas one has got me hooked :lol:

Nothing that exciting really, just need this freezing weather to bugger off so I can wash him :cry:

Yeah, I just didn't want to give him any reason to fail it ;D

Vinnie hasn't been cleaned for about 2 weeks.... longest stretch ever :cry:

Next on the list is to start saving for new sills, doorsteps and a rear subby! .... that should keep me busy >_<. At least then he will be finished :gimme: ..... then it'll be the engine :shifty:

At the same time as the front was being done, I decided to do something about the dash as I was fed up with the crappy walnut style thing that was in, plus it had a chip in the corner by the glovebox exposing the hinge. I painted it Cherry red and that was that..... but the filler sank, and it looked really rubbish.

Sooo after I spent the next few months saving up to buy an MPI 3 clock dash, as I loved the OEM look. I managed to pick one up (I say pick up, it was a steal) off a member on here who was breaking his mini, with the clocks and binnacle. The only problem was, it was delaminating quite badly and needed something doing to it.
(It looked a bit like this)

So because I was on a budget, I decided to carbon wrap it (couldn't afford to skin it :P ). I settled on metallic grey vinyl, as I hadn't seen it used before on a mini :teehee:

After several hours of swearing, and burnt fingers, I managed to come up with this....

It's out of an MPI mini which had an airbag :thumbsup:

I just left it there because I didn't want a hole in the dash...
