ok his finish is not as good as some ,BUT, considdering you have to flat down any glass pamels before painting it makes little odds,
my doors are as good a fit as i could ask for compared to others too,
he's a decent bloke to deal with personally,

i took front end, bonnet, doors arches,and boot lid ,had them ready withing the week from ordering and picked up ,

ive used curley previously and although the finish is almost perfect, the fit most certainly was not on the front end and the bonnet is either too long or the front too short,


just my tuppence worth.
