Cheers Ed. Its looking nice isn't it?

Boo - the window is a flat perspex sheet. Nothing special. I've got to make a new one anyway because that one had a nice crack in it.

Because I CBA! I dont really see the point, its not like its hard to open the door. And I dont think it would be as secure. Saying that, you can take out a standard window in about a minute anyway.

Well, its in the bodyshop. Took it down yesterday, then went in and picked the colour book up today. How many bloody shades of grey are there? :wacko: Got one sorted now - not sure of the name, just the one I decided was best! You can't really see that well from this picture, but thats the one.
