Yay! My new arches came today! But, they need painting before I can put them on :P My stepdad volenteered for that job! :thumbsup: (well, I say volenteered :thumbsup: )

I also checked the bits somerford sent for when Lily goes to the bodyshop and realised theyd sent the wrong bootlid, the woman said theyd sent the right one (70-88) for my car (which is an 87)........so apparently Lily has a different bootlid! :P

Im getting a quote off Bert998 for some doorcards to match my seats! :thumbsup: Kinda defeats the point of getting those seats to match the original doorcards, but meh!! Spose im sticking to the original colours! :P

Progress on Lily looks good - she will look lovely when shes back home :thumbsup:

May I ask where you sourced your advantage decals? I may need some new ones in the near future!

Cheers
